Judas Priest - nostradamus

http://www.judaspriest.com/nostradamus/default.asp

The title track of the upcoming new album is available! Uaaahhh! How is it??

Quite promising so far! The guitar work is great and it's so very obvious, from the guitars alone, that this is not just standard Metal they want to play on this album. The intro is pompous as necessary, Halford's vocals are fine and they sound like Priest. The guitars in the verse even sound a bit like Slayer, and the chorus is very epic, as it should be considering the subject. While this track is certainly not an immediate hit, it is indeed: promising.

Madonna, Metallica, Priest - this should be an interesting year in music.

I can only agree here, just listening to this one song ignites a desire to hear the rest of the double album. Great guitar work, vocals and all in all it presents this atmosphere that I expect given the subject of Nostradamus, especially in the part where the keyboard lead over to the solo of the song.
