Saxon Announces US Tour Dates

NWOBHM legends Saxon have announced that they will be touring the US to support their upcoming release “Call To Arms” which will be released in North America on September 27, with distribution from EMI. The track listing for the new album is as follows:

01. Hammer Of The Gods
02. Back In ’79
03. Surviving Against The Odds
04. Mists Of Avalon
05. Call To Arms
06. Chasing The Bullet
07. Afterburner
08. When Doomsday Comes (Hybrid Theory)
09. No Rest For The Wicked
10. Ballad Of The Working Man
11. Call To Arms (orchestral version)

I personally cannot wait to hear the new album and I am keeping my fingers crossed for an Atlanta (or close by) date. Saxon released a video for the song “Hammer of the Gods” which I think is absolutely stellar! Check it out for yourselves! SAXON IS BACK!

I have been running this blog since 2009. AKA as the Great Southern Brainfart, Southeast of Heaven is my baby now and forever. I’ve had my ups and downs with bands over the years but they are all great experiences and memories. My Swedish friend Charlie said once, “Don is known for being one of the meanest bastards in American rock journalism.” It’s nice to be loved.

I also once took a shit in Anthrax’s dressing room toilet and didn’t flush.
