Pantera Bassist Rex Brown Confirms Collaboration With Judas Priest Guitarist Richie Faulkner

During a recent interview with Tone-Talk, Pantera bassist Rex Brown confirmed that he has recorded a new album with Judas Priest guitarist Richie Faulkner. However, release details for the effort are still pending.

Brown said the following:

“I did a record — it’s not out yet — I did it with Richie Faulkner. Richie and I have become really good friends. And it’s really progressively heavy and cool.

Richie is a very melodic player, and then it’s got my drummer that played on my first solo record. They tracked him playing on one of those electronic kits, and they sampled the sounds into a real kit — which I’m not too crazy about; that’s not the way I would do it. But it’s Richie’s record. And he’s got a new singer now.

I don’t know when that’s coming out. Those guys [PRIEST] are still touring. That was a real thrill.”

This news comes after Faulkner recently said he was “looking for record labels” to release his new solo album.
