When Judas Priest split with Rob Halford in the 90's they picked up a vocalist in Tim "Ripper" Owens and subsequently released two albums of questionable quality - the Priest that old time fans knew was gone. However some time in the 00's Halford got back with the group to explosive success, nowhere near as great as Painkiller, but Judas Priest was back.

Anyway, after long time guitarist KK Downing got kicked out of the band in 2011, seems he kept in touch Tim Owens and eventually decided to release a couple of albums, definitely trying emulate more Judas Priest, hence the name lol. This is the opening track of their second album, once again another speed metal track. Now I'm definitely more of a JP fanboy but if this breeds competition, we all win with more music in the end.
