KK’s Priest (ex-Judas Priest, etc.) have shared an official video for their cover of Judas Priest’s “Never Satisfied.” You can check that out below:

Guitarist K.K. Downing commented:

“Yeah, it seemed like a good idea to, at this point in my career, in my life, span so many decades, just to turn the page back and look at how things might possibly present themselves many decades later. So, songs like ‘Never Satisfied’ and other recordings that I enjoy connecting with again after so long.

And obviously with a view to not just reinvigorating those songs by having KK’s Priest’s current lineup record those songs, it’s also, I’m glad to say, that Reach Music have now acquired the rights to [‘Rocka Rolla’ and ‘Sad Wings Of Destiny’], which has actually freed the whole thing up, and has brought about a willingness and a want to be able to bring the albums to the surface again.”

He also discussed the differences between Rob Halford and Tim “Ripper” Owens:

“Two great singers and performers. I mean, you know, it’s going to be tough. I guess the main thing is that Rob would be associated with the archive legacy, the original going back when. But obviously, Ripper is sort of capable of doing the same thing, but with a slightly different delivery and tonality of the voice.

But other than that, I mean, both the vocalists can completely nail down any song, and it would be often tough to choose what the preference would be.”
