KK's Priest Rocks Bloodstock 2023 with 'One More Shot At Glory'

The forge glows red
All of the words have been said
It's time to make history
We will bless this victory

One more shot
We've got one more shot at glory

We'll march on together
Our loyalty we'll not tether
My pride I'll retake
This spirit will never break

One more shot
One more shot at glory
One more shot
I've got one more shot at glory

Raise your voices, shout out loud
Death or glory, we'll be proud

Rest in peace, your time is done
Retreat with shame, this battle is won
Banners held high, point to the sky
We will live forever more
Time to rest, you've served so well
Banishing evil all to hell
This day will last for all eternity

One more shot
Just one more shot at glory
One more shot
I've got one more shot at glory

One more shot
One more shot
I've got one more shot at glory
One more shot (One more shot)
I've got one more shot at glory
Glory

Προ τετραετίας ο KK Downing και ο David Ellefson σχημάτισαν project υπό το όνομα MegaPriest για μία εμφάνιση. Αυτό έδωσε την ιδέα στον έμπειρο κιθαρίστα για τους KK's Priest, τους οποίους δημιούργησαν τρία πρώην μέλη των Judas Priest.

Πρόκειται για τον εμβληματικό κιθαρίστα των Priest (από το 1970 έως το 2011) KK Downing, τον τραγουδιστή Tim "Ripper" Owens και τον drummer Les Binks, ο οποίος στην πορεία αντικαταστάθηκε (για λόγους υγείας) από τον Sean Elg (βλ. Cage, The Three Tremors, Nihilist κλπ). Την παρέα συμπληρώνουν ο κιθαρίστας A.J. Mills (Hostile) και ο μπασίστας Tony Newton (Voodoo Six).

Το ντεμπούτο της μπάντας κυκλοφόρησε πρόπερσι υπό τον τίτλο "Sermons of the Sinner" και πλέον βρίσκεται εκεί έξω και ο διάδοχός του ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "The Sinner Rides Again". Στην παρούσα ανάρτηση θα τους παρακολουθήσουμε να αποδίδουν "ζωντανά" το τραγούδι "One More Shot At Glory".

Που και πότε έγιναν όλα αυτά; Στο φετινό μουσικό φεστιβάλ Bloodstock, με το δελτίο τύπου να μας δίνει τις λεπτομέρειες:
