Rob Halford

Hachette

Published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the influential heavy metal band Judas Priest, Rob Halford—the lead singer with incredible vocal range and a penchant for wearing leather and studs—details his life's struggle through addiction, bad behavior and the consequences of his bad decisions. But the worst of it, as Halford would tell it, is being in the closet for decades. This book is a soul-baring exercise told with his trademark wry sense of humor. It's a history of metal and rock and roll that's better than any playlist. The legendary frontman of Judas Priest, one of the most successful heavy metal bands of all time, celebrates five decades of heavy metal in this tell-all memoir. Most priests hear confessions. This one is making his. Rob Halford, front man of global iconic metal band Judas Priest, is a true "Metal God." Raised in Britain's hard-working, heavy industrial heartland, he and his music were forged in the Black Country. Confess, his full autobiography, is an unforgettable rock 'n' roll story-a journey from a Walsall council estate to musical fame via alcoholism, addiction, police cells, ill-fated sexual trysts, and bleak personal tragedy, through to rehab, coming out, redemption . . . and finding love. Now, he is telling his gospel truth. Told with Halford's trademark self-deprecating, deadpan Black Country humor, Confess is the story of an extraordinary five decades in the music industry. It is also the tale of unlikely encounters with everybody from Superman to Andy Warhol, Madonna, Jack Nicholson, and the Queen. More than anything else, it's a celebration of the fire and power of heavy metal. Rob Halford has decided to Confess. Because it's good for the soul.
