KK’s Priest—featuring Judas Priest alumni K.K. Downing (guitar) and Tim “Ripper” Owens (vocals)—has shared an animated video for “Keeper of the Graves,” from the band’s second album “The Sinner Rides Again” (2023, Napalm Records; get it here).
KK’s Priest also is set to begin its first U.S. tour on March 7, 2024, with a sold-out show in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. L.A. Guns and labelmate Burning Witches will serve as support. See the tour dates below.
“The Keeper of the Graves is the defender, the sentinel, and the protector of all of the dead,” Downing said. “This ageless being, throughout many centuries, has fought many battles with marauders that seek to prey on the souls of the buried and entombed. But alas, it would be inevitable that one day the kiss of Judas would land on his lips and the cold steel of the evil ones would thrust forward and penetrate the heart drawing the blood of death. As the moon turns red, no one will be saved. Who will avenge the Keeper of the Graves?”
