Title: A Mixed Bag
Review: First, let me say I am a huge Saxon fan. In fact, Saxon was the first heavy metal band I ever saw in concert way back in 1985. But as much as I anjoy their music, this album was a major let down. Biff Byford's trademark vocals are obscured behind a wall of guitars that offer little to challenge the ear. If that isn't bad enough, there isn't a single song that makes you want to sing along or offers a memorable hook like Saxon's earlier works. Their previous effort, Unleash the Beast, is a far better offering. I am a Saxon fan, but someone has to tell it like it is. The boys don't deliver on this recording.
