"I've often talked about metal being the underdog in rock n' roll music." — Rob Halford

I was in several bands before I joined Judas Priest. Being in those early unknown bands were the stepping stones, really, so I learned a lot in those short few years jumping from one band to another.

I just love to sing. It makes me feel great, so I'm gonna keep going.

It's a very empowering kind of music, heavy metal is.

I love all that kind of gothic Bram Stoker kind of thing. I love to get lost in that kind of escapism.
