Rock Band's First Full Album Announced Judas Priest's 'Screaming For Vengeance' hits next week.
Judas Priest will become the first band to make a full-length album available for download on Rock Band, Harmonix and MTV said today.
The metal pioneers' 1982 record Screaming For Vengeance will be released April 22 for Xbox 360 and April 24 for PlayStation 3. Priest's inclusion in Rock Band is welcome news for nostalgic headbangers, but it's not the announcement gamers were expecting.
In June of 2007, when Harmonix first said Rock Band would eventually include full-length downloadable albums, the company announced that The Who's Who's Next would kick off the service. Harmonix went so far as to provide a track list of the landmark 1971 Who record. Today's news release made no mention of Who's Next.
The Judas Priest album will cost $14.99 (1,200 MS points) or $1.99 per track (160 MS pts.).
Here's a full track list (all master recordings):
- "The Hellion"
- "Electric Eye"
- "Riding on the Wind"
- "Bloodstone"
- "(Take These) Chains"
- "Pain and Pleasure"
- "Screaming for Vengeance"
- "You've Got Another Thing Comin'"
- "Fever"
- "Devil's Child"
