Judas Priest: Heavy Metal Painkillers

English | 2007 | ISBN: 155022784X | 380 Pages | PDF | 15.10 MB
When the world thinks of heavy metal in its pure, potent, undiluted form, it is none other than the Metal Gods, Judas Priest, that instantly come to mind. Chrome and black leather, studs and whips and chains, a chopper on stage … these are the tools of the trade for Rob Halford and his legendary band of Birmingham bashers. Back stronger than ever, Judas Priest, in 2005, issued their acclaimed Angel of Retribution album. It is long overdue that their story be told. Published to coincide with a new album in fall 2007, Martin Popoff’s book, Judas Priest: Heavy Metal Painkillers, examines the band’s rich legacy album by album, anthem by anthem, recounting the band’s shocking split with Halford in the mid ’90s and his triumphant return in 2003. Having interviewed all the principals in the band repeatedly over the years, Popoff gives a firsthand account of the Priest’s rocky, often comical ride through the ‘70s, through the gold and platinum records of the ‘80s, detailing the long road back to the status the band now enjoys as heavy metal’s proudest ambassadors. Accompanying Popoff’s lively text are more than 500 full-colour images, the band’s gleaming steel imagery springing to life through a myriad of photos from the stage, memorabilia shots, cover graphics, and all manner of Priestly feast for the electric eye.

Extract RAR5 archives

The majority of unpackers do not support the new RAR5 format. You will receive an error message when you try to open it, and there is usually no way to integrate it manually into the application to add support for it.

So, the only feasible option right now is to install Winrar 5.x on your system if you want to use a graphical user interface. Note that this is a trial version, and while it won't stop working after the trial runs out, it will nag you to upgrade the software.
