In a new interview with Rolling Stone Brazil, Judas Priest guitarist Richie Faulkner was was asked if the band had any plans to record a follow-up album to Invincible Shield, released last year. He offered the following:
“I joined (the band) on the farewell tour. That was gonna be the last world tour. But you get so excited when you’re out and you’re traveling and you go to different countries, and seeing different people and playing these great songs, we ended up going into the studio to record Redeemer Of Souls. And then we got excited over that record and we wanted to go out and play it live. And then the same thing happens. You get excited, you go in the studio again, record Firepower, tour, Invincible Shield, we’re touring. So the pattern seems to be, after a tour, there usually comes an album. We never say never because that seems to be what happens.”
“We’re still on the Invincible Shield tour and we’re coming down to South America, coming to Brazil. It’s one of the most exciting places in the world to play, so that might fire us up for another album. But we talk about it and we never say never. It would be the 20th record, right? If there was another one, it would be number 20, which is a good number. We’ll see, but I don’t know.”
