Metal legends Judas Priest are gearing up to electrify their global fanbase with a unique pre-release celebration for their much-anticipated album, “Invincible Shield.” On March 7th, just one day before the official album release, fans across the globe will have the exclusive opportunity to join a worldwide listening party held at select metal bars. Notable venues include Rocka Rolla in Brooklyn, named after Priest’s debut album, and The Lost Well in Austin, among others, promising a day of heavy metal camaraderie and first listens.
The festivities continue on March 9th near Daytona Beach, Florida, where Judas Priest will host a special pop-up shop from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Atlantic Sounds. This event will not be your typical album launch; it will feature a custom Judas Priest military combat truck, dubbed “an invincible shield on wheels,” that will blast the new album to the massive crowd attending Daytona Bike Week. Additionally, the Priest truck will lead a parade lap at the Daytona 200 motorcycle race, adding a metal twist to the event.
Fans can also look forward to experiencing “Invincible Shield” live as Judas Priest embarks on a worldwide tour, including a headlining run in the US this April and May. This global listening party and subsequent events mark a thrilling moment for Judas Priest enthusiasts, offering a unique blend of music, motorcycles, and metal mayhem.
