Blitzkrieg Metal Magazine recently caught up with Saxon frontman Biff Byford prior to the band's show in Uden, Holland on May 8th. Check it out below:. Click here for Blitzkrieg's coverage of the show. 
Regarding their new album, “Call to Arms”, Byfford said that it has more of an 80s sound, and that the band loves it.

On the more delicate topic of Oliver-Dawson-Saxon, Byfford cryptically added “we don’t want to destroy them… completely [...] they have to make a living!”, referencing the fact that, after winning a court battle against Oliver-Dawson over the name Saxon, they allowed them to use it as a hyphenated addition to their name.

Saxon is currently on a European Tour that will eventually land them on Spain, where they will play with legendary rockers Mötorhead and Judas Priest, so be sure to check that out!

Saxon will release their brand new studio album, "Call To Arms", via Militia Guard Music, UDR and EMI on May 23rd. The tracklisting is as follows:

'Hammer Of The Gods'
