Known for their powerful riffs, soaring vocals, and relentless touring, Saxon has remained a major force in the metal scene for decades.

Led by frontman Biff Byford, the band continues to release new music and perform worldwide, proving their staying power with albums like *Carpe Diem* and *Hell, Fire and Damnation*. Their influence can be heard in countless metal bands that followed, and their commitment to true heavy metal remains unshaken.
