Owens for Halford (Judas Priest). Horrible voice, horrible material - just unlistenable. n/t	nomorenomore08	Jul 2014	#20
I think if they took and recorded under a different name juggulator could have been forgiven	Arcanetrance	Jul 2014	#22

Whoever is replacing Barlow in iced earth now	Arcanetrance	Jul 2014	#23
