Ripper rules 🤘🏻 great interview!
Judas Priest need to do justice to the two Ripper album. There are lot of fans that appreciate them a lot.
Thanks for another great interview!
“One more shot at glory” track is a masterpiece and the video is excellent. I like the way they reference the old songs. KK’s Priest keeping classic traditional metal alive.
Absolutely
Ripper Owens is a fantastic singer. I'm a big fan. I always loved Jugulator and Demolition.
The Sinner Rides Again is amazing. Great work! 🤘👍
The Amazon delivery guy has literally just handed me my copy of The Sinner Rides Again. Will listen to it tomorrow in the car.
Seeing them on Sunday. 👍
It's some line up...
Enjoy! I am sure you will love it
If you ask me KKs Priest sounds more like Judas Priest than Judas Priest does
KKs writing is so evident its ridiculous!
Love both albums keep em coming and hope to see you guys in Canada 🇨🇦
The second half of that record is absolutely fu@kin killer. Some of the best stuff I've heard in a long time. 🤘🇨🇦🤘
AMEN! They need to focus on Kk's Priest and Ripper era priest, live. Maybe just a couple of Halford era Priest songs for the encore. 🤘🏽
Dude has probably the best voice in the metal business and it's nothing short of amazing how humble this dude is. Thanks for the killer interview!
Ripper's one'a those guys where like, even if he was sitting there talking about photosynthesis or pen twirling or something, I could listen to him for hours just because his speaking voice sounds that cool lol
TOTALLY AWESOME interview...!!!
Lots of great insight and laughs...!
You knocked it out of the park with this one...👍✌️🔥
great interview
Great interview
I was on his concert in Lviv about 10 years ago. It was another life...
Great interview! And take care Ukraine! ❤
So... he wrote Scream Machine for Judas? That explains a lot of things. Great interview
Great interview, the new album is great.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
The fact that kk is pissed,
likely makes for a better record.
He should be pissed of himself for just walking out of Judas Priest then having regretted it.
second album is rocks! Tim is just a best!
Definitely much better than the last few JP albums. A buddy said to me listening to the last album, "everything seems like it was recorded to the same tempo click track", and it is. Its extremely cookie cutter. While KKs may have some of that formula too, this is just way better.
New album is freaking awesome
Let er Rip!
Thanks for an awesome interview! This album is so much better than the first, which I did like. Tim's vocals are so much more musical on this album, since he uses his entire range. His personal style comes to the forefront. I can't wait for these guys to do a USA tour. This is probably going to be my favourite record this year. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
My problem with the last album was the drumming, it was pretty thin!
I agree with you on Return To Death Row being among his best work. It's short but every single track is energetic and awesome.
I hope him and Richard Christy get back together for another Charred Walls of the Damned album. Personally, Cold Winds on Timeless Days is probably my favorite album Ripper Owens is on overall.
Totally awesome
Been a priest fan forever saw them first on the Sin after Sin tour but my favourite song is one on one this should definitely be added..
You hope that no one will see that mouse pointer on the recorded screen, BUT WE DID 😂
But now seriously, thanks for the great content! 👏👍
Ripper Rules
Tim "uuuaaaaaa" Owens...😅
Nice interview. Tried to get your cursor off of Ripper, did not work :D
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it! Haha when was the cursor present? Might have missed it when editing haha
I do not agree with Tim that Screaming and Defenders are same albums..they are surely similar style but the sound is different and honestly to me just dont sound the same. Both are great in similar and at the same time different way..:-)
I love what Tim has done with Iced Earth and especially KK’s Priest! So awesome. I like his short stint with Yngwie. However to say that the two albums he did with Judas Priest have “longevity” I find ridiculous. His legacy will be everything post Judas Priest.
Really ? Man i liked every other singer better than Ripper Wow i think Stu Block kicks .
@@les-ti6lo Stu is great especially Live In Ancient Kourion. I’m just saying I like Tim in Iced Earth too and what he did there I like better than his time in JP. I never said I liked Tim over Stu. I just think Tim really came into his own with Iced Earth not Priest
tim owens is so much better than halford ever was thank god....
Oh man, Tim has lost weight.
Yes, a lot! Apparently he's been working out every day for more than a year
Didn’t like him in priest, or the music on those albums. With kk’s priest he sounds great, not having to sing for legend band and eventually following the metal god halford
The first side of "The Sinner Rides Again" would make it album of the year but the second side is genius level. Such a shame that it has a huge flirtatiion goiing on with the Devil. We live in the most evil times in history. People should be careful that they don't lose their souls.
Screaming For Vengeance and Defenders Of The Faith sound NOTHING alike to me wow
I'm glad to see you've lost a lot of weight and hear your vocal performance improved a great deal but please stop doing that irritating waoooooooo scream on almost every song on The Sinner Rides Again. 11:43 There's absolutely no need to deny the obvious.
No, defenders of the Faith was a far less cool and fun an album than screaming for vengeance.
I don't know... Defenders is my favourite Judas Priest album of all time... possibly because of the emotional connection I have wit hit. But I do agree that it is quite different to Screaming for Vengeance
Defenders, Stained Class, and Killing Machine are my fav 3@@MetalPilgrim
In your opinion. Prefer Defenders of the Faith, heavier album overall than Screaming for Vengeance.
I just said it was the same Style wise. But then again seems to be a lot of people who like it better. Hahahah. Both records rock
Thank you Ripper for carrying the Priest flag when Rob left. Been a JP fan since 1982.@@Ripperowensofficial
Maybe one day they'll silently regret that they have "Priest" in the name... it's a lack of uniqueness
I think you're the only one who thinks that.. 😏
Ripper really is not that great There really is no comparison to Halford . Just a cheap fugazi .
Always with that fake Ukraine grift. You are in no danger. You come and go as you please.
