The beginning of the 2000's looked pretty bleak for legendary British trad metal unit Judas Priest with the issuance of the much maligned Demolition in 2001. However, the return of Halford to the mic proved the perfect tonic as the band continues to issue relevant metal records ever since into this current year. (Ahem - let's turn a blind eye to the Nostrodamus hiccup, shall we!)

Rejoice all ye metalheads as we listen to the best material of the mighty Priest in the 2Ks.
