Les créateurs des Simpsons ont rectifié leur "erreur" dans un nouvel épisode.
The writers for "The Simpsons", one of the longest-running sitcoms in television history, have acknowledged their mistake in calling JUDAS PRIEST a "death metal" band on last week's show and have made amends in the follow-up episode.
The cartoon's January 5 installment, titled "Steal This Episode", saw Homer getting involved in illegal film downloading, prompting the FBI to launch an anti-piracy investigation. When Homer's family sought refuge in a Swedish consulate, an overzealous FBI director in charge of anti-piracy subsequently went after him, and JUDAS PRIEST singer Rob Halford wound up singing a parody of the band's classic "Breaking The Law" in an effort to nab Homer. "There's only one surefire way to get fugitives out of a foreign building," said the FBI agent. "Blasting death metal."
"Swedes love death metal," a headbanging consulate member said in the episode. "It reminds us of death!"
After last week's episode aired, much of the metal community showed its disapproval online, making it clear that JUDAS PRIEST is not, and never has been, a death metal band. Word evidently got back to "The Simpsons" creators, who made amends by having Bart scrawl the words "Judas Priest is not 'death metal'" repeatedly on the chalkboard in the introduction of this week's episode.
Rob Halford déclare que l'album serait enregistré !
British heavy metal legends JUDAS PRIEST have completed work on their brand new studio album, to be released later in the year.
Speaking to Artisan News at last night's (Monday, March 17) VIP listening party for the Ronnie James Dio tribute album "This Is Your Life" and awards gala at the Avalon in Hollywood, California, JUDAS PRIEST singer Rob Halford stated about the band's new CD (see video below): "The record is finished; it's absolutely finished as of today." He added: "It's a relief. It's a relief because whenever PRIEST makes an album, like any band, you put your heart and soul into it; it is that typical 'blood, sweat and tears.' It's not an easy thing to do 40 years later. But PRIEST has always been up for the challenge of that, and it's one of things that we love to do more than anything else as we move on through our metal years. So this is a great time for PRIEST: 40th anniversary, a brand new record. Life couldn't be better."
R.I.P Ronnie James Dio !

oui oui, mon message n'était pas anodin, ils ne doivent plus faire de tournées comme annoncé, mais bon un "Epitaph Tour" de juste quelques mois ça l'est pas vraiment...
De là à faire un Scorpions-bis il y' a un pas, mais "Rocka Rolla" étant sorti il y' a 40 ans, pourquoi pas une nouvelle tournée best-of.
R.I.P Ronnie James Dio !

Clair, je viens de recevoir un mail d'un contact presse, avec pour contenu, seulement un logo du Priest, sans rien d'autre.
