Metal Mayhem ROC:Richie Faulkner (Judas Priest) on Elegant Weapons’ New Album

Richie Faulkner of Judas Priest joins Metal Mayhem ROC to break down Elegant Weapons and their new album Evolution. Faulkner shares the story behind a track originally brought into a Priest session—sung by Rob Halford but left off the record—that ultimately found its place on this release, highlighting the creative link between both worlds. The conversation covers how Evolution builds on Horns for a Halo, the current lineup with Ronnie Romero, Dave Rimmer, and Christopher Williams, and the studio dynamic with Andy Sneap. Faulkner also dives into songwriting approaches, Nashville’s musician network, album sequencing, touring plans for Elegant Weapons, the next chapter for Judas Priest, and a candid health update.
