Judas Priest is gearing up to release a new studio album called Twin Turbos later this year, and metalheads are probably stoked..
Judas Priest, the legendary British heavy metal band, is not releasing an album titled Twin Turbos later this year. This title refers to a concept the band had in the mid-1980s for a double album that was ultimately split into two separate releases: Turbo (1986) and Ram It Down (1988) .
Their most recent studio album is Invincible Shield, released on March 6, 2024. Produced by Andy Sneap, with the final two tracks co-produced by Tom Allom, the album debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart and topped the Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums chart in the U.S. It was the band’s first release in six years and marked a significant milestone in their career .
Regarding future projects, frontman Rob Halford has indicated that while the band hasn’t begun working on new material yet, it’s “inevitable” that they will release another studio album eventually. Guitarist Richie Faulkner has also mentioned that the band has been discussing ideas for their next album and hopes to start work on it in 2026 .
In addition to their musical endeavors, Judas Priest is set to release a documentary titled Defenders of the Faith in early 2025. Directed by Sam Dunn and featuring Tom Morello, the documentary will include previously unreleased footage and provide an in-depth look at the band’s history and impact on the heavy metal genre .
Fans can also look forward to the band’s 2025 tour, which includes performances in major cities worldwide, such as New York City, London, Tokyo, and Sydney. The tour promises to showcase their latest album and classic hits, offering fans an unforgettable live experience .
While Twin Turbos remains a part of Judas Priest’s rich history, their current focus is on delivering new music, captivating performances, and insightful documentaries to their dedicated fanbase.
