Saxon : 'The Inner Sanctum'

[Dave]

Dernier message de la page précédente :

Byford annonce un album dans la lignée des précédents (Metallhead et Lionheart par ex) donc bien heavy, avec quelques morceaux qui aurait pu firgurer sur Solid Ball of Rock aussi... on verra ce que ça donnera !

[Gaëtan]

Ouais... Donc en somme : rien à foutre de l'album, mais vivement la tournée!!!

[Everflow]

On peut d'ores et déjà acheter le single au format digital :

Bah faut voir quand même ! bon c'est vrai que y'a eu un virage musicalement, récemment je me suis écouté des albums avec l'ancien gratteux (Oliver) "Forvever Free", solid ball et pour remonter plus loin "Denim & Leather", c'est clair que ça "swingue" un peu plus !

Dans le genre truc à la con : Saxon ont essayé de battre le "record du monde" de air guitar à la mi-temps d'un match de foot anglais, mais le public qui était sensé suivre les a hué

Yorkshire Post reports: An unusual record attempt made at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough ground [in the United Kingdom] on Saturday (Jan. 20) may yet make it into the next "Guinness World Records" book — despite a lack of enthusiasm from the 29,100 fans who were there.

Veteran South Yorkshire rock band SAXON were aiming for a record in a new category — the largest-ever air guitar ensemble.

The rockers came out on the pitch at half-time during the Owls' game with Sunderland and tried to persuade the crowd to join in, air-guitar style, with them.

But it looked as if SAXON's status as local heroes had faded since they came out of Barnsley to ride the heavy metal wave of the 1980s — their performance was greeted with boos rather than the enthusiasm they were hoping for. What was worse, Wednesday lost 4-2.

Yesterday SAXON were on their way to Germany, but a spokesman for the band said a Guinness Publishing representative who witnessed the event had given them a certificate saying the record would be recognized, subject to evidence that at least some of the crowd had taken part.

The spokesman, Paul McEntee, said: "Wednesday were 2-0 down and their fans did not want to know but I have videotape of some of the Sunderland contingent joining in."

J'avais bien aimé leur passage au club du Transbo y'a de ça quelques années, ça me faisait tout drôle d'être parmi les plus jeunes

Saxon et UFO, deux grands moment de concert pour ma part.

[Hellion]

c'est vrai que a 0-2 les supporters de Wednesday avaient peut être pas envie de faire mumuse avec saxon, a part les 3 metlaleux qui devaient se trouver la par hasard...
Ils devraient le retenter a Shalke04 ou au Borussia Dortmund !

[Hellion]

putain l'accent du commentateur !
dommage que la fete ai été gaché, biff avait l'air motivé...
tout cela devrait se retrouver dans un doc pour la tv anglaise d'apres ce que j'ai pigé... (Biff est bien du nord aussi et c'est pas toujours facile d ele suivre... )

Biff va sortir une autobiographie :

"We knew we'd recorded a good album; we just didn't know it was that good …" recalls SAXON frontman Biff Byford of 1980's breakthrough album "Wheels Of Steel".

For over thirty years, SAXON has been led from the front by charismatic and larger-than-life vocalist Biff Byford. In "Never Surrender", he tells his story for the first time, from his working class childhood as a terribly shy schoolboy in Yorkshire through the mega-days of the early Eighties to the band's twenty-first century rise to fame once more. Sometimes tragic, sometimes funny, but always brutally honest, "Never Surrender" lifts the lid on the myths surrounding SAXON, as well as revealing the hard work and heartaches it takes to make it to the top and stay there.

Co-author John Tucker is a music writer and photographer with a keen interest in — some would say obsession with — heavy metal. His first book, "Suzie Smiled… The New Wave Of British Heavy Metal", was published in 2006.

"Saxon - Never Surrender (Or Nearly Good Looking): An Autobiography By Biff Byford And John Tucker", ISBN 978-3-931624-44-6, will be published via I.P. Publishing in April 2007. Distribution in the U.K. will be handled by Gazelle Book Services Limited.

"The MÖTLEY CRÜE tour was the highpoint of sexual adventures, but just the whole American thing really was where most of the groupies were. And like I said, I nearly died from too much sex and too many shows … I remember us playing this gig and I looked up at the side of the stage and Tommy Lee's there, having a blowjob while he's watching us. Talk about off-putting!"

ça sonne plutôt pas mal,je le sens très bien!

[over'phil]

ça sent même super bon je dirais, ça va faire mal aux cages a miel

vivement le 5 et le 30 pour le show

Ca me semble au largement dessus de Lionheart

[Skullscrushers]

C'est une bombe cet album !

une chronique terrible sur v-solutions.net

Rhooooooooo p'tain !!!
je crois que je vais me faire faire un 2ème tatoo !!!

[steelprophet]

ralala je le sentais bien ce retour de Nigel Glockler mais la ça dépasse tous mes espoirs ! vivement le 05 mars !

[desperados]

c'est un bon album , mais pas révolutionnaire non plus bref c'est du saxon et a y réfléchir on en demande pas plus

[Gaëtan]

En tout cas, il a l'air sacrément bien accueilli par pas mal de web zines. Paraîtrait que c'est plus rock'n'roll et moins "connement" heavy. J'y jetterai bien sûr une oreille.

[Noxos]

C'est sur il n'est pas révolutionnaire, mais il est excellent !

[Cardinal-Sin]

pas révolutionnaire? quand même sortir un disque de qualité de nos jours faut quand même oser c'est vachement risqué

[Dark Schneider]

Je l'ai chroniqué pour nightfall, la chro paraitra dimanche ou lundi et elle est positive!

Non vraiment j'aime beaucoup cet album qui contient effectivement un retour à des morceaux plus rock. Bien meilleur que Lionheart en tout cas.

[over'phil]

mon pote fan de SAXON, depuis 1981 trouve le dernier monstrueux, rien a jeter. Il a été supris par la qualité des compos et la production monstrueuse.

Je dois le recevoir demain par la poste, j'en peux plus d'attendre
