Judas Priest Writing New Material Despite Farewell Tour

Legendary metallers Judas Priest won’t break up after their final tour – they’ll release more music.

The band are preparing for what has been mooted as their final ever shows, heading through Europe and the UK.

But NME notes that their website says they’re actually writing new music and will not break up at the end of the tour.

It reads, “The guys are working together on writing new material - all is going really well - more details later!”

The ‘Epitaph’ Tour seems to be constantly adding dates, most recently in Serbia, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland and Switzerland.

The final shows will finish before the end of the year.
