This interview episode's guest is nobody else but Metal God himself, Rob Halford, who speaks about the new Judas Priest album Invincible Shield which come out on March 8 2024. Rob Halford also discusses the lyrical themes of Invincible Shield, the first singles and why the band has chosen those to represent Invincible Shield and of course the Invincible Shield artwork and its concept.

In addition, Metal God talks about the upcoming 2024 Judas Priest live tour together with Saxon and Uriah Heep and which songs Judas Priest will play live this time. And of course, also addresses the fact that he and Bruce Dickinson will be playing several shows at the same festivals in 2024, answering the question about a possibility of a duet. Rob Halford also shares some news about his new book and much much more. Enjoy!
