Free Music Review: The Harley Has Been Tuned!
Hit: 5 Stars

I've been a Judas Priest/Halford fan since the early '80's. When Halford and the team split, I checked out 'Fight' and thought it was ok; I checked out 'Two' and was pretty depressed; and, I checked out Judas Priest with new quarterback Tim 'Ripper' Owens and confirmed my belief that the lead singer certainly makes the band. I'm pleased to say, after listening to this Halford CD, my metal happiness has certainly resurrected!

'Resurrection' has to be one of the most powerful songs ever emitted from Halford's mouth. The song becomes more powerful when you check out the lyrics in the sleeve. It's a tune about the past music in Halford's life and his resurrection to what he has now...an amazing heavy metal band! This song and all remaining songs have great reflections of Priest from the past. It seems that the least preferred tune by most reviewers is 'Cyberworld'. Although the title sounds a little soft, Halford adds some pretty rough lyrics. In addition, the chorus is just fantastic! Temptation, has vocal swings that remind me of 'Bloodstone'..."you took my heart and left it blown to smithereens...and left my body..."...(you get the hint). 'Drive' has a thump that reminds me of Iron Maiden, although the lyrics are a bit dull. 'Made In Hell' pumps from start to finish. The lyrics are great! Halford has always been great at writing songs about Heavy Metal as a lifestyle. It works on this tune! The guitar riff is heavy as can be! Silent Screams' is a Halford vocal classic...pounding lows, highs, mids,..he sounds fantastic. As the song picks up speed, it draws you inside. 'Temptation' is great! I almost didn't like this song initially, and, now I love it! Halford continuously screeches in the background and the power of the song makes you wanna lip sinc in the mirror like a metal star..ha ha! Come on..you've done it! 'Savior' is a solid tune that is pretty much an autobiography. Explaining how Halford has saved us from the horrible sounds of the bands of today (I won't mention any names like KID ROCK because I'd prefer not to offend anybody). Don't forget...Iron Maiden is saving us too with 'Brave New World'...a great CD! 'The One You Love To Hate', sung with Bruce Dickinson, is a powerful song that grows on you fast. It's nice to hear these two metal vocalists duel it out on this tune. I think Halford wins, although Bruce puts up a good fight! 'Nightfall' sounds like a Van Halen tune for the first 5-seconds, but, turns into a '(Take These) Chains' sound. The vocals are decent, and, the chorus makes this a more enjoyable song. Great guitars too! KK and Glenn who? ha ha! 'Slow Down' is a heavy, rhythmic tune that embodies a pretty good chorus and some great tenor from Halford! Damn, this CD is great! 'Twist' and 'Drive' are my least favorite songs on the CD. The music and voice are very good on both songs, but..bottom line...they're a bit weaker than the rest. A small amount wimpy. It may take some time to really get into these. I'll try. I promise.

Thanks for a great CD Mr. Halford! I saw you in NYC and look forward to your show in Camden, NJ. Set List:(1)Resurrection (new),(2)Made in Hell(new),(3)Into The Pit(Fight),(4)Cyberworld (new),(5)Savior(new),(6)The Hellion/Electric Eye(Screaming for Vengeance),(7)Riding on the Wind (Screaming...),(8)Breaking The Law (British Steel), and (9)Tyrant (Sad Wings of Destiny).

BOTTOM LINE: WOW!

Resurrection Poster

Original release 2000. Debut album by a heavy metal band led by Rob Halford (Judas Priest). Features "The One You Love to Hate," a duet with Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson. 12 trax.
As the title implies, former Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford has returned--to his roots, if not his senses. After Fight and Two, Halford's post-Priest "experiments" (read: attempts to expand his market base), failed to set the charts afire, it was the singer's career that seemed to need a little resurrection. Hence this (he claims) largely autobiographical, often strangely nostalgic trip down metal's memory lane. That Halford's black-leather sensibility extends beyond his couture is immediately apparent; the crunching, occasionally modern rhythms (Ray Chindeau on bass, Bobby Jarzombek on drums) and twin guitar assault (Patrick Lachman and Mike Chlasciak) offer a familiar metal landscape of thundering riffs and rapid-fire, diddly-squeak solos for Halford to unleash his ungodly howl upon, with the just the odd ballad (the touching "Silent Screams") to shift the mood from anxious/angry to melancholy/angry. Fellow fading metal merchant Bruce Dickinson even drops by on "The One You Love to Hate" (self-esteem problems, fellas?) to swap some venom. Lest we forget that Halford was instrumental in inspiring This Is Spinal Tap, there are lyrics here that thoroughly blur the line between the sublime and the ridiculous ("Cyberworld"'s dire warnings that the Internet is "a Trojan Horse that eats your mind") and mix metaphors ("The world's a stage that's waiting for its bad ass to be kicked") with inspired abandon. In short, a heartwarming return to form. --Jerry McCulley
