Search - Saxon :: Lionheart (W/Dvd) (Spec) (Dig)

Saxon are British through and through. Not only are they among the founders of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal that kick-started a new musical genre in the early Eighties, they?ve also upheld the theme of their native country in their lyrics as well as in their music for some 25 years. Pretty much the same can be said of every aspect of their haunting 2004 release, Lionheart. From their impressive songwriting with its powerful sounds and ambitious lyrics about witch hunters, King Richard Lionheart and the attitude of British soldiers towards war, to their striking cover artwork, Saxon unequivocally stand by their origins. At the same time, the band surrounding vocalist Biff Byford display an energy that?s almost physically perceptible. Byford rightly explains: "Lionheart is the most powerful album we?ve ever recorded." This new Special Edition comes with a bonus audio DVD with Lionheart in 5.1 mix, the original ?rough mix?, live and video clips and additional audio features, special digipak packaging and a bonus Saxon lanyard.
