There have been few vocalists in the history of heavy metal whose singing style has been as influential and instantly recognizable, possessing a voice which is able to effortlessly alternate between a throaty growl and an ear-splitting falsetto.
Judas Priest’s Rob Halford has more than earned the moniker “The Metal God” with his spectacular soaring vocals. His voice is so incredible that it can cut straight through Priests dueling power-chords, but have you heard his vocals on their own?
Take a listen to the brilliance of Halford’s isolated vocal track recorded at Ibiza Sound Studios, Ibiza, Spain.
The Judas Priest lead singer is simply one of the greatest voices we ever had in Heavy Metal. So many classic songs made with true passion for music, Priest became one of the biggest metal bands of the history of music and Rob was really important for the band to reach stardom.
