Tomorrow, Brutal Legend comes out.  The third-person video game centers around “Eddie,” a roadie who gets hit on the head and wakes up in a world where every heavy metal album cover and lyric he knows has come to life.  Judas Priest singer Rob Halford lends his voice to the game and he told us more about it. 

 “It’s all about, it’s metal characters, it’s metal music, it’s all these great metal bands and it’s a real homage to that genre of music.  And we’ve got this character called ‘Lionwhite’ who has to kind of fend off all these different things, primarily the lead character whose voiced by Jack Black, the movie actor.”

So how did Halford like doing a voice for the game?

 “The voiceover really is just kind of getting into this defensive, kind of cajoling, slightly cynical, ‘Yeah, you can’t get past me’ mode and you just read off the script in front of you.  It’s like doing I guess anything like that, that animation or so.  It was a lot of fun to do, I was just there for the day and I can’t wait to see the final pieces.”

Brutal Legend also features the voices of Lita Ford and Lemmy Kilmister.  Learn more about it at BrutalLegend.com
