  1. First day buyer here!! Damn, Biff still sounds great, and he’s a few years shy of 70 years old! These NWOBHM legends can still deliver. Can’t wait to see them on tour next year with future R&R Hall of Famers Judas Priest!! It’s gonna be another British Metal Onslaught! \m/

    “Denim and Leather, brought us all together. It was you that set the spirit free!”

  2. This is a kick ass song! Biff and the boys still sound great after all these years! I’ll definitely be getting THUNDERBOLT. Having them tour with Judas Priest will be a show for the ages! I still remember seeing them open for Black Sabbath on the HEAVEN AND HELL tour, and it was one of my favorite shows of all time. I sure hope the tour with Priest comes somewhere close, so I can catch it. Saxon definitely should have been more successful commercially than they have been!

    1. Keith, I think it’s awesome you saw Saxon so early in their career! Was that on their Wheels of Steel tour?

      I first saw Saxon on their Power and the Glory tour when they opened for Iron Maiden. And I saw Saxon again a couple of years ago with Armored Saint. Saxon and Armored Saint…two great bands that should have had more success!
