It was officially announced today that JUDAS PRIEST will be reuniting with original vocalist, Rob Halford, after 12 years apart. The original line-up of Halford, Glen Tipton, K.K. Downing, Ian Hill, and Scott Travis have some big projects in the works including a new album and a 30th anniversary/reunion world tour, which is currently being planned for 2004.
During the years of Halford’s absence, JUDAS PRIEST was fronted by Tim “The Ripper” Owens, who has parted amicably with the band by mutual agreement.
