Some people on this website are really dumb!! Do you honestly think Jayne Andrews decides the music Priest plays and records!!
This album IS different. Is it better than Painkiller or British Steel or Sad Wings? IMO no BUT it is well thought out, well recorded and an overall excellent production. Yes my opinion now differs from a few weeks ago. I stated that I wanted another Painkiller, barnburner, album and was dissapointed in that respect but I change my tune by seeing and hearing everything in this recording.
This is a stage that priest has not stepped on before and it will take time for some to realize the value of this recording and just how good it is. Its different, not bad......... [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by JudasPriest4Ever from Wednesday, June 25, 2008 1:31:49 AM)

Let me list the things I am disgusted with:
1) that Judas Priest is only playing a select amount of concerts in the U.S.
2) the Nostradamus double cd is the most disappointing Judas Priest album I have ever heard
3) that Priest plans to perform the entire album from start to finish when they tour
4) that Priest let their manager decide for them what their new album should be about and steer it as far away from the Judas Priest sound as he could; which is why the Priest logo is NOWHERE to be found on the album, nor are any pics of the band on or in the cd at all (I guess they realized what a mistake the album was but it was too late to go in and record real Judas Priest music)
5) that after such a triumphant reunion album, Angel Of Retribution and the successful tour, they follow that up with a whimper of a neo-classical, pseudo-opera disaster
Did I leave anything out ???
Oh yeah, Priest is jumping on the prog-rock, concept album craze. Instead of setting the trend, they are following one.
