Default Saxon

Next to Judas Priest and Iron Maiden they are one of THE quintessential Heavy Metal bands. Spinal Tap based there idea on them. They have been going since 1979 and I fucking love them!

Everything they do screams of cliche but there is something utterly endearing about Saxon that still keeps me interested to this day.

Early Days:

From 2 years ago when the band is full of 50 year ols buggers who should know better!

I love this song



But the more I think about it I wonder if it's because in this Biff Byford sounds like a dead ringer of Bon Scott.
