Judas Priest: We’re Not Splitting Up
mdome / News, Top Posts / 27/01/2011 16:25pm

It appears that Judas Priest are not about to split up.

Although they recently announced that their upcoming world tour will be the last, the legendary metal band have now clarified their position.

Confirming that Priest are working on new songs, guitarist Glenn Tipton has posted on his official website:

“To put everyone’s mind at rest, this is by no means the end of the band. In fact, we are presently writing new material, but we do intend this to be the last major world tour.”

Priest will, of course, be one of the headliners for this year’s High Voltage Festival.

Is this just a way for Judas Priest to make a full news cycle during a slow spell? Because I hadn't heard anything recently saying that Priest WAS splitting up.

Yeah, when I'd read the header for this I was thinking "Well duh, who said they were?"
