Judas Priest postpone tour as Richie has heart issues

Posted by Morgan Y Evans - Walking Bombs on Tuesday, September 28, 2021 at 6:26 AM (PST)

Fresh off Louder Than Life, metal icons Judas Priest have had to again postpone 50th anniversary celebration touring after Richie Faulkner was hospitalized.

I am listening to “Lightning Strike” and “Painkiller” this morning and thankful for various eras of the band with different members. See how that works?! It was disheartening to see the boneheads in the comments on the Priest Facebook argue about if this is now when KK should come back or to promote fucking KK’s Priest with Ripper “I am a sexist pig on Twitter against sex workers” Owens. PS, Raise Your Fist by Doro already exists and was way better.

How about instead we all try wishing well a young guy who steals the show every night and who has done his best to keep the band we love fucking rolling full steam ahead for many years now.

Metal Riot has your back, Richie. Sending healing love and firepower to you, buddy.

It is with deep regret that we have to postpone the rest of our US Tour –
Richie has major medical heart condition issues which landed him in hospital – in the meantime we are all sending love to our Falcon to wish him a speedy recovery.https://t.co/vruseqj0nd pic.twitter.com/fTyRQ9psL3

There are some bands more adept at riding the chaos than others in the storied history of underground music. From noise and hardcore pioneers like Steel Pole Bathtub to Man Is The Bastard to synth/indie/post-core bands like Six Finger Satellite to numerous grindcore bands like Fuck The Facts, etc.- some groups just embody the concept of "fuck it/let's really go for it" more than others. NY's Black Mesa sits proudly in that same spirit of frenzy and ferocious inventiveness, as evidenced by their recent compilation of insanely manic live performances. Whatever sub genre they throw in the emotional blender, you are bound to enjoy a deliciously nutritious smoothie of muddy sonic punk purée.
