“Firepower” was Judas Priest’s studio record. It debuted on March 9, 2018 on Epic Records. It was co-produced by Tom Allom and Andy Sneap and consisted of 14 tracks. It was their more successful offering from the band because it was in the top five charts in 17 counties, including the highest chart placement for them ever in the U.S. The song, “Lightning Strike”, was the highest charting commercial rock radio single in decades.
