 Rating:  - Gets better with ageJP goes in a different direction on Nostradamus...and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Gone are the shredding guitar solos that have been their hallmark for decades. I've listened to this 5 times through now and I can honestly say it gets better with each listen. Fans looking for Painkiller II will be sorely disappointed. This is not a CD you'll want to crank up as you're pulling up to a stoplight to try to impress the hot chick (or elderly couple) next to you with your ability to listen to loud music (btw, no one over the age of 18 is ever impressed with this skill in case you're wondering). However, if you can come in without any preconcieved notions of what Judas Priest should sound like, Nostradamus can provide an entertaining journey, ... Read More: Rating: - Refreshing Metal Opera shines against trash out thereI may have a more objective review than most here as I was not a major Priest fan growing up in the 80's. I did hear their popular songs and loved them, but did not relish in their albums. I was always drawn to conceptual rock like Rush 2112, The Who's Tommy and Quadrophenia. So to hear an amazing rock opera like this in 2008 is refreshing and brave. I for one would finance bringing this to the stage. I think it would be a sell out show instantly and it would be well deserved. I do not think Priest fans should fear this variance of Priest. Have we (40 and 50 something folk) all not mellowed after all the years of rocking hard. I think our generation is far deeper than the current crowd and can appreciate change and taking risks. ... Read More: Rating:  - Priest's Nostradamus twists another dimension into the Metallion!After only a few reviewed listens, I was quite impressed with the plethora of elements that Judas Priest conjured up for their latest effort on Nostradamus! An impressive twist of the tale steping back and forward into man's longtime evilution. It explores the sins of the fathers gone by right up to today's society still riding the waves of time and mankind's uncertain future? Nostradamus shows another realm of Priest exploring their own creative concept filled with mysterious soundscapes, midtempo melodies, and synphonic drama mixed into their trademark hard & heavy metal domain! There are many standout songs including the intro./Dawn of Creation, The Phophecy, Revelations, Plague & Pestilence, Sands Of Time, Persecution, ... Read More: Rating: - I'm So Happy (Both For and WITH Judas Priest)The grand news is: Judas Priest decided to push things further. I've been a huge fan of theirs for nearly thirty years now, and I knew that they had this in them. Casual listeners wanted more of "You've Got Another Thing Coming", but I now ask the same casual listeners to try to lose that mindset; open up, and discover how brilliant "Nostradamus" IS. Many people have been buying this album thinking retro. The fact is, Judas Priest already released a "Living After Midnight"/ "Breaking the Law"/"Don't Go" album, "Angel of Retribution". Much like the fantastic recent release of Manowar, "Gods of War", "Nostradamus" pushes the boundaries of how "metal" is usually defined. In plainer language, cds like "Nostradamus" and "Gods of ... Read More: Rating:  - Snoozefest!Few if any concept albums are worth a grain of salt The Wall being the head honcho of the bunch. There was a story being told there. There was also a visual aide of being made into a movie as well as w/ Tommy. What story is actually bieng told in Nostradamus?? To my ears its more like a cd inspired by the idea of Nostradamus not a tale of his life. I just saw the video of Gods of war I think it was and even that didn't relate to much of anything - just a cast of a thousand different computer generated warriors breathing fire! I do like "Alone" on its own(no pun intended) and that is the only track that remains w/ me after owning it for months. I feel like they focused too hard on making a concept cd that it fails on both musical and lyrical fronts. The ... Read More: |
