Judas Priest unleash the first single from their upcoming 19th album

After recently announcing their 19th album Invincible Shield, Judas Priest have just shared the record’s lead single.

The Metal Gods will be releasing their upcoming record in full on March 8, 2024 via Columbia, but the five-minute-plus epic thrill ride that is new track Panic Attack is available to hear now – watch the lyric video below, so you’re singing the right words while trying to hit those Rob Halford high notes.

We’re pretty certain Metallica frontman James Hetfield is also gonna be keenly sat on his computer, checking out the new video and nailing all the lyrics, given that he went viral for hugely enjoying the Priest live experience at last weekend’s Power Trip.

“I just kind of realised that we’re down in the very front, looking up,” Papa Het reflected after the festival. “You got Rob Halford riding out on a motorcycle, and there’s fans behind us, looking at us. They’re watching us enjoy that. How cool! I guess that’s pretty cool, you know, but we’re fans at the end of the day. We wanted to be in the mix and see it.”

Check out Panic Attack below:
