In the first hour of the show, Saxon frontman Biff Byford spills the beans on the band’s forthcoming UK tour, choosing tracks from the albums the band plan to showcase at the gigs, what fans call the “Holy Trinity” of Saxon albums, Wheels of Steel, Strong Arm of the Law and Denim and Leather. Biff also reveals that the band are planning a new album, and that he has a solo album in the pipeline.
Also in part 1, Night Ranger frontman Jack Blades talks us through the writing and recording of their new platter “High Road”, selects three songs from the album and discusses the band’s touring schedule and long term plans.
In part two, Peavy Wagner of German Melodic Metalmeisters Rage talks about the band’s new 30th anniversary double album of rarities “The Soundchaser Archives”, chooses two tracks, and looks back at the highlights of three decades of metal.
And finally we catch up with Area 11, an exciting new band from the UK whose love of Japanese culture and music has seen them write music for cartoons and anime in the land of the rising sun.
