British Heavy Metal legends Saxon unleash the highoctane second single,
Razamanaz”, from More Inspirations out this Friday, March 24th via Silver Lining Music.

Following the release of Inspirations in 2021, More Inspirations is the second ‘deep dish’ serving of the influences
which have fed the mighty Saxon’s immensely successful 40+ year career. The second single is a striking take on
Nazareth’s Razamanaz.

Frontman Biff Byford comments “In the seventies we’d go and see Nazareth they were one of the premier touring
hard rock bands. We were lucky to tour with them in 1980, they used to open the show with this song, it’s about
the audience performed to an audience brilliant stuff!”

Whether unveiling a sensational take on The Sensational Alex Harvey Band’s The Faith Healer” (in the process
showing the direct lineage from teenage turntables to international glory), getting feral with The Animal’s We’ve
Gotta Get Out Of This Place”, letting loose a highoctane take on Alice Cooper’s “From The Inside”, or laying down
a ferocious tribute to KISS’ Detroit Rock City”, More Inspirations is a joyous trip into the sounds which galvanized
the Barnsley boys and continue to get spun on home stereos and tour buses.


Produced by vocalist/cofounder Biff Byford, with Seb Byford helping record the music alongside mixing engineer
Jacky Lehmann, More Inspirations also includes enthusiastic takes on Alice Cooper, Rainbow, ZZ Top and Cream,
as well as a thunderous Razamanaz” by Nazareth, a tasty take on The Who’s Substitute”, and a thick groove
take on Uriah Heep’s Gypsy”.

Whether this is your first dance with such classic songs, or you’ve come to see where Saxon were born, More
Inspirations delivers the goods and then some.


“This time wonderful classics from colleagues like Nazareth, Uriah Heep, Alice Cooper and Rainbow are
‘saxonized’ and special surprising pearls from Cream and The Animals CLASSIC ROCK GERMANY

Saxon typical guitar riffs and Biff’s raw, smokey voice are making the opener ‘We’ve Got To Get Out Of This
Place a successful song. ‘The Faith Healer, competently implemented and adjusted to their own style this song is
really inspiring. Highlights are ZZ Top and the already million times covered Man on the Silver Mountain.
Saxon fans need to buy it!” BREAK OUT GERMANY


’The Faith Healer is one of the highlights. The song is already heavy but Saxon are even topping it. All 10 songs
are really good and the cool new interpretation of the Cream classic Tales of Brave Ulysses is the cherry on the
cake. One more time Saxon managed to implement new ideas and aspects to the well know classics and
presenting a valuable trip to their fans”
