Judas Priest are ready to bring plenty of firepower, literally, to concert stages in 2018.
The metal legends, who are up for a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nomination, will embark on a 25-date North American arena tour in support of their new studio album, Firepower, due in early 2018. The trek will kick off March 13 in Wilkes Barre, Penn., and conclude May 1 in San Antonio.
Firepower will mark Judas Priest's first album since 2014's Redeemer Of Souls. The group's prior studio album, 2009's A Touch Of Evil: Live, spawned the group's first GRAMMY win for Best Metal Performance for "Dissident Aggressor," a track from 1977's Sin After Sin.
A fan presale will commence Oct. 25.
