Judas Priest have decided that March Of The Damned will be the lead-off single from their forthcoming studio album Redeemer Of Souls.
On Monday, May 19th, the official lead-off single from the album, March Of The Damned, will be released to rock and metal radio, and will be available for purchase via all digital sales providers. Additionally, on the same day, preorders for the full album will be made available through iTunes.
As the band themselves said about March Of The Damned, “Our passion for heavy metal has never diminished, and this track sounds off with real conviction!”
Redeemer Of Souls will be made available from Epic Records on Tuesday, July 8th as both a standard version and a deluxe edition with five bonus tracks.

now THAT sounds like classic priest! please play that song on the tour, right after screaming in it’s entirety!
Song sounds good until Halford begins singing…seems all our favorite metal bands in their advanced age have forgotten how to melodically incorporate vocals with the music. Something they were particularly adept at doing during their salad days.
Redeemed. Thanks Ritchie for the breath of fresh.
Priest are the greatest metal band of all-time, but the two songs that have been released to date do absolutely nothing for me. The production is so flat it sounds like a demo. Halford’s voice sounds so restrained. He is attacking these songs as if they were church hymns.
Hopefully the remaining 16 tracks sound better.
Thanks Dana! Glad to hear the whole single now!
