(RockAAA) Judas Priest were named Icons at the 9th annual Metal Hammer Golden God Awards in London Monday night.

The metal legends recently launched their Epitaph tour, billed as the band's final world trip, although they are working on new music and will play smaller series of dates in the future.

Rob Zombie was named Golden God, as the metal and movie man received his honor from Alice Cooper; earlier this year, it was the other way around, as Zombie inducted Alice into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.

Other big winners included Iron Maiden (Best UK Band), Twisted Sister (Inspiration Award) and Avenged Sevenfold (Best International Band), among others.
