Dear friends and supporters,

Another month has passed. November turned out to be the month where decisions were made and new paths were found. The album recording will most likely turn out to be and album and an EP - with the EP released prior to the album. More info about the EP will come to you (before anyone else) sooner than you think!

But - after a meeting with Claudio Marino about three weeks ago, we decided to take the step into documentary filmmaking. The upcoming film 'Decoded' will portray the band during the album recording, but also on the road. Shooting will take place over one year from now and release is scheduled for spring 2026.

Tomorrow, Sunday Dec 8th, Artax Film will launch the IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for the movie. Of course, as Patreons, you will have early access right now. Follow this link below and check out the cool items and perks! But most of all - be a part of a journey you'll only experience once in a lifetime!

Filming has already started and the editor is also plowing through tons of material filmed by the band on the road. It will be a movie with big contrasts and we're very excited to see how far we can go with this! We want to show every aspect of Priest.

Meanwhile - a new direction of sound is explored. A more 90's touch will be added on to the fading sounds of the 80's - but with a twist of Priest on top! So - exciting times indeed! Mercury is also collecting interesting material for the USB-sticks that ships soon (for you who have those in your perks) - have a bit of patience, cause you're in for a real treat! You all will also get more of the spontaneous voice calls from Merc as well - hopefully the audio will work seamlessly when he does.

Thanks once again for your kind support - it means that Priest can be creative at a level we only could dream of before! We could never be more grateful.

Best wishes,

//pM
