Fans who couldn't make it to Poland now have the next best thing. Full video of JUDAS PRIEST's July 28 concert at COS Torwar in Warsaw has been uploaded to YouTube by the Andre.D.Keaton channel, capturing the entire performance from the band's 2026 "Faithkeepers" European run.
The set opens, as it has all summer, with BLACK SABBATH's "War Pigs" playing over the PA before the "Faithkeepers" intro gives way to "You've Got Another Thing Comin'". From there PRIEST work through the full sweep of their catalogue: "Metal Gods", "Breaking The Law", "The Ripper", "The Sentinel", "Desert Plains", "Lightning Strike", "Turbo Lover", "Steeler", "Delivering The Goods", "Panic Attack", "Victim Of Changes", "Halls Of Valhalla" and "Painkiller", before an encore of "The Hellion"/"Electric Eye", "Hell Bent For Leather" and "Living After Midnight".
Two of those titles are the story of this tour. "The Ripper" and "Delivering The Goods" both returned to the setlist at the tour's opening night and had not been played live since 2019 — a deliberate bit of vault-raiding for a run the band has framed around rewarding the faithful.
The "Faithkeepers" trek launched on July 25 at BOBfest in Mönchengladbach, Germany, where PRIEST delivered a 17-song set at SparkassenPark. It comes less than a year after the band's 22-city North American co-headlining tour with Alice Cooper.
PRIEST continue to ride the momentum of "Invincible Shield", their 19th studio album and one of the most commercially successful records of their career. It debuted at No. 18 on the Billboard 200 and entered the U.K. chart at No. 2 — the band's highest-ever placing there, beaten only by Ariana Grande's "Eternal Sunshine" that week. Before that, PRIEST's U.K. peak had been No. 4 with 1980's "British Steel". The album also topped the charts in Germany, Finland, Sweden and Switzerland, and reached No. 5 in France, No. 8 in Italy and No. 16 in Australia.
"Invincible Shield" was PRIEST's fifth U.K. Top 10 album, joining "British Steel", 2018's "Firepower" (No. 5), 2014's "Redeemer Of Souls" (No. 6) and the 1979 live landmark "Unleashed In The East" (No. 10).
During the European leg of the 2025 "Shield Of Pain" tour, the band leaned hard into the 35th anniversary of "Painkiller", performing seven tracks from the 1990 classic — including "All Guns Blazing", "Hell Patrol", "A Touch Of Evil", "Night Crawler", "One Shot At Glory" and "Between The Hammer And The Anvil" alongside the title track.
The Warsaw footage runs just over 90 minutes.
