UPCOMING EUROPEAN TOUR,
NEW US DATES ANNOUNCED

DATELINE: Thursday, March 7, 2024 – Saxon unleash the video for “Madame Guillotine“, the third single from the band’s critically-acclaimed 24th studio album, Hell, Fire And Damnation – out now via Silver Lining Music.
 
Hell, Fire And Damnation is an album which sees Saxon investigate all areas of history and mystery amidst ten of their most confident and thunderously powerful songs yet. In “Madame Guillotine“, lead singer and founding member Biff Byford, chooses to give voice to the infamous torturing device, best known for its use in the French Revolution between 1789 and 1799.  
 
“Both this and the title track songs are written by me and Brian actually, and this is very ‘Saxon’, so much as I don’t think anybody else could pull that off,” comments Byford. “I sung it as if the guillotine is a person, that the actual guillotine has a bit of a conscience. I love the groove, it’s got a great groove!”

Hell, Fire And Damnation is a superlative British Heavy Metal classic. Produced by Andy Sneap (Judas PriestExodusAccept and Priest guitarist) and Biff Byford, with Sneap mixing and mastering, the album strides the perfect line between confident, current power, and gloriously irreverent flexing of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal muscle which Saxon co-created.
 
2024 promises to be a great year for Saxon, with the European tour alongside Judas Priest and Uriah Heep kicking-off at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on March 11th, the recent release of the global chart-topping Hell, Fire And Damnation and the fast approaching co-headline US tour with Uriah Heep titled “Hell, Fire & Chaos – The Best Of British Rock & Metal“.
