HALFORD: 'Live At Rock In Rio 2001' Trailer Available

October 21, 2006

In 2007, Metal God Entertainment (MGE) will release: "Halford - Live at Rock In Rio 2001". The formation of Rob Halford's new heavy metal band (HALFORD) is chronicled from studio to road in 5.1 surround sound. After releasing "Resurrection" (2000) HALFORD screams through a 95-city, world-wide concert tour. The band's final-tour performance at Brazil's Rock in Rio III (2001) festival in front of more than a quarter-million metal fans presents an up-close view of one of metal's hardest working and innovative bands. The film's audio-only soundtrack release, "Halford - Live at Rock In Rio III", has been Produced by Roy Z. Click here for the promotional trailer.

Halford previously laid out an ambitious release schedule for his new company called Metal God Entertainment (MGE). Halford will reissue some of his non-JUDAS PRIEST material through MGE, starting with the HALFORD albums he made in 2000, 2001, and 2002, and he's also planning two DVDs and possibly some other music for next year. Halford told Launch he started MGE so that he could better control how things are released and promoted. "We really are very possessive of what we create, and we nurture it, obviously, from conception to its release," he said. "Most labels do an incredible job, and, and that's always been the case for me, but here's an opportunity now for me to look after things a little bit better, and give me a little bit more peace of mind in that area."

Besides working on MGE projects, Halford is in the midst of writing with JUDAS PRIEST. They're making a concept album about the 16-century prophet Nostradamus.
