Saxon Issue Album Update
The record is looking likely for February
As the band take a well earned rest after a near constant year of touring and recording they have issued an update on the progress of their brand new studio album.
"The progress of the new album is quite far — just some final vocals and a few last bits and pieces are missing. Most likely, our mate Andy Sneap is going to mix the album.
"As we said on our press conference at Wacken, we are looking at a release date in February."
The band have also revealed that they will be touring the UK in April, with their annual St Georges Day concert taking place in Manchester for the first time ever.
They also say that their long gestating movie Heavy Metal Thunder - The Movie is due for release this autumn.
