On May 27th, Six Feet Under will release the fourth installment of their Graveyard Classics series, this time paying tribute to two of metal’s most heralded legends: Iron Maiden and Judas Priest!

In regards to this new serving of death metal tributes, Six Feet Under founder Chris Barnes comments: « Get ready to have your ears violated and your mind blown! ‘Graveyard Classics IV: The Number of the Priest’ just crawled out of the Heavy Metal Cemetery! Having a good time playing music is what it’s always been about since day one, and that’s what the ‘Graveyard Classics’ albums are to me… a good fucking time! On this trip down memory lane, we cover songs from Judas Priest and Iron Maiden; the two greatest metal bands of all time. Ray Alder from Fates Warning did a guest background vocal appearance on ‘Invader’, our first single. Ray is a great friend, and an awesome vocalist, and I felt our differences in styles blended well together for the middle section and added some harmony to the rawness.
I hope you all enjoy the band’s twist on these legendary songs! »
