Halford
Resurrection
[Metal Is]


Ah yes, Halford, one of the great vocalists in metal history, is back. From his long career in Priest, to his pretty cool cameo in the band Fight, to his atrocious Two album, Halford has had his ups and downs. Resurrection definitely qualifies as an up.

“Resurrection” begins with a slowly building title track, which from the first scream lets the listener know Halford is back to kick in some heads. “Made In Hell” is the next track on this album, and yet another classic Metal tune. “Locked And Loaded” has a questionable set of lyrics, but is nevertheless, a great track. “Nightfall” is one of Halford’s more melodic moments on this album, again, a killer track. Highlights of the album also include a duet with Bruce Dickenson.

For those people who question Halford’s ability to make good Metal, pick this one up for sure. Trust me, Halford is back and ready to rock again, and this album proves it. Stop wasting time and pick this one up.
