He didn't need to go Solo, he let the fans and his band mates down because of his ego. And what was accomplished? hardly anyone can mention any decent songs from his solo career.
Jack The Skipper You mean like this one you found yourself commenting on? Or Resurrection,Made in Hell,Locked and Loaded from the first Halford record. Handing Out Bullets or Heretic from Crucible. Ok you got me on Made of Metal except the title track.
Halford's non-Priest projects do not get NEARLY enough recognition. Even the missteps are BALLSY missteps from an artist who could have taken the easy road and chose not to. All props to Halford!
That was part of the inspiration for Fight Rob heard them and other groove metal bands that were out at the time . Fight=groove metal! and it was good! except maybe the remixes lol
I bought this cd almost 30 years ago and keep coming back to listen to it. The sound of the metal is raw and pure. Strong and heavy. A real gem. Love it forever
A lot of the Halford non Priest stuff is better than the Priest stuff. Now he is credited with writing all of the music and songs on the Fight albums, there is no chance that is possible.
Rob Halford... Fuck... absolute God in Metal, We've lost Dio, Kilmister, and a shit load of some real pioneers of Metal... Thank God for RU-vid so all their material can live on!!! Judas Priest is one band... seriously.. the fans will never let them retire lol....

Fight's first album was awesome. Btw there's no need of anymore coments pointing on Russ aka Satchel
[lyrics] Torn by the wrath that burns like a buried flame Crossed in the heart from this voice thats a nagging pain Snared to the book of God with a twisted fear Help me from being damned by a righteous spear It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin Chained with a crooked stare that conceals a lie Choked on a love that's judged from an evil eye Lost in a world of hurt through a sense of doubt Take all the numbing grief let the poison out It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin Torn by the wrath that burns like a buried flame It's immortal sin It's immortal sin It's immortal sin
Yup, with his really long hair back then, not a wig now. Also, the singer from Damageplan is the other guitarist. This song and other Fight songs would a cool funny a Throwback Riff Challenge verses at their live shows. Talk other Steel Panthers members go in on it and urge Steel Panther singer to sing this song or like Nailed to the Gun.
I love the War of Words Album!!! Makes me remember two legendary nights with Fight and The Organisation (ex Death Angel) kicking ass live in Germany,October 1993!!!
I always felt that this band was very underrated, their 2 albums were great. Rob's solo career was amazing too and it's great that he returned to JP but this was great
Escuché "War of Words " por primera vez haciendo fila para entrar a un concierto en el año 94. Desde entonces he seguido escuchando ese disco casi adictivamente muchísimas veces hasta el día de hoy, es sin duda uno de mis discos favoritos de la vida.
Though I know every Rob's song, though I watched videos with him thousand times, but when I watch some Judas Priest video after this one (Johnny B. Goode, for example was only 5 years before that video) I'm always being shocked how dramatically he changed his style, look and Voice! What a change! Definitely, Rob Halford is The Master of Changes (and not the Victim like you could think =)
I saw Fight with my brother and 2 cousins at Coogee. Sydney Aust. , mid 90s. We're all Priest fans. Rob did an in store meet n greet . I went by myself and he autographed my British Steel CD. I met my musical idol. After the Fight concert, all 4 of us had sore necks for the next few days. It was brutal, bad ass Halford metal. Awesome albulm, awesome gig . Memories.
Luck I met Rob out front of whiskey go go back when stained class album was released, will never forget that show it was amazing. The guitar riff is the fuckn truth.
People dont understand just how FCUKING HEAVY Fight truly was! The very first time i heard any of Fight, I was like 😮😊. This is one group i wish i could've seen live. Only born in 87, I missed out on seeing Metal during its ABSOLUTE PEAK between 1980-1995 or so. SO MANY concerts and memorable times! Nothing i can do but just keep on supporting the dream, metal!
This message is for the entire band... Driving home to Wittmann from my night shift at Walmart in Glendale Az. Listening to Freewheel Burning via bluetooth and just as I was cruising the newly paved Loop 303... As the lyrick "WE'RE SPITTING FLAMES" was sung...a Fucking shooting star ripped across the night desert sky! I knew right then and there that "METAL RULES THE WORLD"! Yeah! That was HEAVY DUTY!⚙🔥🤘⛓🎼🎧🎹🎙🥁🤪
This is a TOTALLY underrated album! Killer metal, Halford style, every track is solid. My go-to with noise cancelling headphones when on a plane. Anyone who hates on Fight hates on Metal.
Long time Priest fan, just discovering Rob’s solo projects. Underrated is an understatement. He left and took a risk, allowing for a bit more freedom of expression. Such a talent, may you live forever Metal God \m/
