Judas Priest has reigned supreme for 30 years as the most influential and commercially successful pure heavy metal band, and the masters are being honored with the career-spanning, four-CD, 65-track box set Metalogy scheduled for release on May 4, 2004, by Sony Music/Legacy Records. The worldwide reverence for Judas Priest has resulted in sales of 20 million albums and countless sold-out concerts.
Metalogy, the first-ever Judas Priest box set, was assembled with the full
participation of the band and it covers music recorded worldwide for the Gull, Sony Music/Columbia, CMC International, SPV, Atlantic and JVC labels between 1974 and 2002. Remastered hits, fan favorites, live rarities, B-sides and a previously unreleased demo are included. And as a bonus, the initial pressing of Metalogy will include a live DVD of a complete concert filmed on December 12, 1982, at Mid South in Memphis, TN, on the Screaming for Vengeance tour.
This show was released on home video as Judas Priest Live but it has been out of print for many years, and fans have often requested that it be reissued. This new DVD is mastered in pristine 5.1 Surround Sound for the ultimate Priest live concert experience.
Fans will be thrilled with the packaging of Metalogy. The 7×7 inch box is appropriately wrapped in leather and metal studs. The 7 inch x 7 inch full color book features a full discography, biographical essay, timeline and numerous previously unpublished photos.
