During an interview with Anne Erickson of Audio Ink Radio, Judas Priest’s Rob Halford was asked if there would be a follow-up of the band’s latest album “Invincible Shield”.

The heavy metal singer replied:

“Well, it’s what we do. I think most bands will tell you that their relevance is based on their music and where they are at that particular moment in their in their life as a band and that’s always sustained by the new music that you create.

”So even though we haven’t gone into that world yet, into that new world of Priest music, I think that it’s inevitable there will be something else. When it will happen, I have no idea.

“This band thrives on the metal that we make, the time that we spend with each other, ’cause there’s a lot of love in this band for each other. We appreciate that we need time downtime to go and be who we are outside of the band, which is important, so you can decompress and take a deep breath, and rest, and chill, and then prepare for the next metal assault.

”But this is what Priest has been doing. Fifty years ago, we started with ‘Rocka Rolla’. Fifty years later, we have ‘Invincible Shield’. So, at some point, there’s gonna be another one, obviously.”
