SAXON – Battering Ram [single] (2015)

*

British legends SAXON have a new album ready, their 21st studio recording entitled “Battering Ram” expected for October 16, 2015, through UDR Music GmbH.
The first single and title track has just been released exclusively at iTunes, a rocking track very much in Saxon’s ’80s style.

Speaking about the musical direction of Saxon’s follow-up to 2013’s ‘Sacrifice’, the band’s frontman, Biff Byford, said: “Some of it is quite brutal, but there’s quite a lot of melodic stuff on there as well. Every Saxon album is different to the one before because we like to entertain people and we don’t really like to write the same song all the time”.
However, the CD’s title cut is “a bit like our classic ‘Heavy Metal Thunder’, just modernized to present times. Classic stuff.”

“Battering Ram” is once again being helmed by acclaimed British producer Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Accept), co-produced by Byford.
