Hi John!!! this album was a big improvement after the luckluster Nostradamus was..... however i still think it has to many songs and with the 5 extra songs it's even longer. The album i think has to many picks and valleys, musically speaking, really like a lot "Halls.....", "Battle Cry", "Sword of Damocles" just to name a few but also a lot of fillers. cheers and be well

Yes, it was a good transition to the much better albums, Firepower and Invincible Shield.

For future reference, "kvlt" is metal speak for "cult", as in cult black metal, an adherence to certain black metal stereotypes such as dark satanic imagery and lo-fi production.

Thanks. I was never sure of that.

@@jcrockandmetalreviews Yeah, it's often used in a humorous context as a pseudo-elitist way of saying that if a black metal band isn't "kvlt", then they're not considered "true" bm.

To me the album sounds flat and tired, This is relative to the production and the performances, especially from Rob. However, I think the songs are quite strong, when they come up as part of a varied play list they are great, when I try and listen to them back to back the issues are more apparent. Saw them on the tour, was awesome.

Yeah, basically they could have had fewer songs and spent more time on production.

Redeemer of Souls is a good album from Judas Priest. But definitely think it could've been better IMO.

Yeah, I know. It was kind of long. They could have trimmed it and chose the best songs.

After that dumpster fire that was Nostradamus, this was needed.

There are two problems with this album - bad production (the guitars sound a little lifeless and dull) and some filler (Metalizer, Hell and Back and maybe March of the damned). Other than that it's a really good album.

The album is descent, but that's about it. Battle Cry&Halls of Valhalla are masterpieces. Then there are really good songs such as Sword of Damocles, Metalizer and the Secrets of the dead which is growing on me. The rest of the songs, while not bad, they are just "there". Dragonaught is JP cliché, title track is poor man's versions of Hell Patrol, March of the damned is not helped by the bad production mixing... And the rest while not bad, are just there. I would skip most of the songs just to listen to Valhalla, Battle Cry and Damocles and maybe the title track Ps I don't have the special edition so I never heard the 5 bonus tracks

Yeah, I agree. This album could have been trimmed down a little. I think they were smarter with the next 2 albums and chose the best songs.
