Band biography
Judas Priest photo
Judas Priest was one of the first heavy metal bands and is one of the most successful bands ever. The band was formed in 1971 when the schoolmates K.K. Downing and Ian Hill decided to create a group. They recruited Alan Atkins (vocals) and John Ellis (drums) and named the band Judas Priest. The first gig was on March 16, 1971, at St. John's Hall in Essington, England. Since then the band has overgone lots of line-up changes and gained a loyal fan base all over the world.
