GAP "Borrows" JUDAS PRIEST Image For A T-Shirt; Band Considering Legal Action!

JUDAS PRIEST's Rob Halford has announced that the Metal icons are considering legal action against clothing retailer the GAP over a T-shirt design (the image been removed from the company’s website as a result) that is almost an identical copy of the cover art of the band’s classic album, 'SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE'.

Speaking to The Quietus, Halford commented, “Well, it’s very naughty of [GAP]. They shouldn’t have done that and we’re investigating that right now because that’s intellectual-property rights. We were never asked, neither was our label. Having said that, pushing the legal side of it to one side, it’s brilliant, isn’t it? To think that something 30-odd years later is still striking enough to be a fashion moment.”

The design can be seen above. Let us know what you think at the comments section below.

Recently, JUDAS PRIEST unleashed the 'SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE – SPECIAL 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION'! This very special release contains not only the re-mastered original album plus bonus tracks, but also a live DVD from the 1983 US Festival show, filmed in San Bernadino CA on 29th May 1983.

JUDAS PRIEST Unleash "Screaming For Vengeance – Special 30th Anniversary Edition" - Audio Samples Available!

Today, JUDAS PRIEST unleashed the 'SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE – SPECIAL 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION'! This very special release contains not only the re-mastered original album plus bonus tracks, but also a live DVD from the 1983 US Festival show, filmed in San Bernadino CA on 29th May 1983. Audio samples available HERE!

The US Festival was intended to be a celebration of evolving technologies; a marriage of music, computers, television and people - organized by Steve Wozniak formerly of Apple Computer. 

The 'SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE – SPECIAL 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION' Live DVD was filmed at the second, and what turned out to be last, US Festival in 1983. The Sunday was the Heavy Metal Day -"It was the day new wave died and rock n' roll took over". It set the single-day concert attendance record for the US with an estimated 375,000 people.

Judas Priest have this to say about this memorable day in Metal history:

‘On the day that we performed, we flew in by helicopter - and the first sight we saw was that of thousands of abandoned cars piled up around the crests of the hills that surrounded the festival arena, which as we went over took our breath away. For there below us, spread throughout hundreds of acres was a massive crowd – over three hundred thousand strong! The summer heat was raging and combined with the hot Santa Ana winds made for a scorching metal furnace on stage.’
