British Heavy Metal legends Saxon will deliver a full-roar-fun-down set of covers with their latest album "Inspirations", which drops a brand new 11 track release featuring some of the superb classic rock songs that influenced Biff Byford & the band.
"We wanted to do an album based on our influences, the songs and bands that inspired us to write what we did and still do", continues Byford, "and it was also interesting to see what my voice could do as I haven't sung many of these songs before".
Byford does, indeed, take on some new vocal challenges, which he duly smashes on the likes of Thin Lizzy's "The Rocker". The net result is that whether cranking up a heavyweight take on Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" or throwing down AC/DC's "Problem Child", Saxon does a supreme job of entertaining both themselves and their audience throughout "Inspirations".
"We didn't want to change any of the songs too much, just play them more like Saxon", concludes Byford, "and we also think it's very important to have - and share with the fans - some fun in these dark times".
You want even more proof of the validity behind that statement? Wrap your ears around their sparkling take on Toto's "Hold the Line" and consider Saxon's Inspirations a mission accomplished.
