Description

The next trio of vinyl to be repressed from the Judas Priest vaults. Each album is pressed on 180g vinyl and includes a download code. As with the previous batch, the original masters of these records have been out of print for a considerable amount of time and will appeal to fans looking to complete their JP vinyl collection. The third and final batch featuring Defenders of the Faith (1984), Priest Live! (1987), Ram It Down (1988) is due for release early in 2018 (date TBC).

Angel of Retribution marked the return of Rob Halford, after a 12 year departure from the band. The album debuted at #13 on the U.S. Billboard chart, what makes it the second highest chart of a Judas Priest album (only before Nostradamus). It also marked the first time Judas Priest have been the number 1 artist on a national chart (in Greece). The album was produced by Roy Z, who co-wrote the song Deal with the Devil.
