British heavy metal legends Judas Priest have announced plans to embark on their ’50 Heavy Metal Years Tour,’ alongside battle metallers Sabaton.
In a statement, Judas Priest says:
JUDAS PRIEST are primed and ready to deliver the goods with our ’50 Heavy Metal Years’ anniversary celebration stage show spectacular. Performing a blistering cross section of songs from our lives in metal — we can’t wait to raise horns with you again at this once-in-a-metal-lifetime event.
Sabaton bassist Pär Sundström adds:
It’s a great honour for us to be special guests to one of the most influential metal bands of all time, for a very special tour. We received a lot of requests from the USA that fans wanted to see us return after the successful tour we did last year and here we are, in great company.
