Hellbent Forever

The UK's DEFINITIVE tribute to Judas Priest were born just outside Sheffield in the land of British Steel over 14 years ago. Recently voted the 'World's #1 Judas Priest tribute band' by esteemed Rock & Metal Royalty judges on the US series 'Tribute Wars - Quarantined' - Hellbent Forever comprise of 5 guys with a love and passion for the music of the Metal Gods - JUDAS PRIEST. They perform songs right from the 'Rock-A-Rolla' album through to 'Firepower' and all points in between and have the setlist to prove it, often weighing in around the 3 hour mark if needs be. Having played extensively throughout the UK and beyond, they will play for 'Metal Maniacs' almost anywhere. They have the Leather & Studs (all hand made replicas of Priest stage gear through the years), the twin guitar attack, the pounding rhythm section and of course, the screaming vocals - for 'One hell of a kick-ass Heavy Metal show' so get yourself out and see the guys in action, we guarantee you will NOT be disappointed .......... Rock Hard, Ride Free & Defend The Faith!!!
