This collection features some of the band's most iconic songs, including 'Breaking The Law,' 'You've Got Another Thing Coming,' and 'Turbo Lover.' The set also includes fan favorites like 'Electric Eye' and 'Painkiller.' The album was released on June 19 via Sony Music.

Judas Priest has had a long and storied career, with over 50 million albums sold worldwide and more than 2.5 billion global streams across their catalogue.

They continue to tour extensively this summer in Europe and have a few upcoming shows lined up, including a headline performance at Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith on September 21.
