Saxon To Release Wacken DVD

The band have a new release on the horizon

Published 14th Feb 2012

HEAVY METAL THUNDER - LIVE: EAGLES OVER WACKEN is released on 20 April and it is available in a range of formats, from a 2CD/DVD edition to vinyl to a special limited edition which could bag you tickets to any Saxon show anywhere in the world for the rest of your life.

The DVD contains 30 tracks recorded at Wacken Open Air over three different years (2004/2007/2009), while the CD contains a show recorded in Glasgow last year.

"We‘ve consistently tried to write, and perform  songs which both us and our audience enjoy," says Biff, „and we‘ve worked very hard to maintain that link with our audience, because if you don‘t have that connection it can be very dangerous. We need them, and we need to be ready to deliver for them at every show, that‘s the challenge and it‘s one we gratefully accept and enjoy. If the audience are prepared to get crazy, then it‘s always going to be a strong show, and Wacken always delivers us a fantastic connection. You cannot fake that electricity, everyone wants that ‚charged‘ atmosphere and it is absolutely priceless..."
