I like the cover art and the song!

Same! Both cool!

I know its going to be different that KK won't be on the album but Richie Faulkner is a worthy replacement.

The song doesn't blow me away, but it certainly isn't bad by any means. Rob's vocals sound fantastic.

Cover art is the same, it's not great, but it is still cool. It seems to have some sort of underlying theme from Painkiller and Angel of Retribution with the central character being similar. Maybe I'm really grasping at straws here. *shrug*

Finally someone who agrees with me!

Couldn't care less about the cover art, the music's what they should be judged by (that said, I looooooooove the SWOD album cover). Bit meh about the title track but I keenly await the whole thing and I can't wait to see the impact Faulkner has both in songwriting and the final product. Will be great to see how many ballad-like songs there are, such as Beyond the Realms of Death, Dreamer Deceiver and Angel. Priest have always excelled there.

May 17 1988 they did Ram it Down.
26 years today since it was made.

I don't care what ANYBODY says, that was a good album. Was it Screaming or British Steel? NO, but it's still rock solid in my book.

They finalized and released the cover artwork. Looks MUCH better than what was previously released to the public:

Redeemer of Souls - Release date is July 15th







Really looking forward to it. Can't say that about many old school bands these days.

Yeah the album has grown on me. Still has a couple of meh tracks but the rest are quite decent.

And I too love the proper artwork you just posted.
