Halford continues to be hilarious

Postby jonny_boy34 on Mon Sep 06, 2010 2:25 pm

Well, the long-awaited album HALFORD IV: MADE OF METAL is coming, and bears perhaps the most wonderful front cover in the history of heavy metal.

Also note how there is a track called "Till the Day I Day." One can presume that this is a typing error, but one can hope that it is not.

Easy to label Halford's recent stuff as cliched, but remember he's the man that actually invented them.

Even in the day, some their (JP's) stuff was pretty tongue in cheek, painkiller for an obvious example. You can be pretty sure Rob is having a good laugh along the way with the imagery as well as being dead serious about the metal.

Can we drop this Halford is gay sniggering, does anyone really give a fuck?

Halford is not funny. He is amazing. DO NOT TREAT HIM LIKE A JESTER.
