Saxon - Solid Ball Of Rock (1990)


Come on boys, take us to the front line and defeat the enemy...all opposers to straight-laced metal will be crushed by iron hands and metal horses. Okay, so the message from Saxon circa 1990 is the same as it ever was, 'Requiem(We Will Remember)' won't win any titles or any new fans in fact, but it will give those hardened Saxon troops a further dose of denim, leather and fire. 'Lights In The Sky', 'Aint Gonna Take It', and 'Crash Dive' are stuck in a time warp, and the Americanisms are also slightly awkward as here's a band as British as beef, but Saxon, love 'em or hate 'em will always play and have the right to rock.
