Is Saxon one of the most under rated of heavy metal bands of all time? In my opinion, yes they are. Saxon has been flying the heavy metal flag since 1976, and yet aren’t anywhere near as appreciated as their NWOBHM counterparts Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, or Judas Priest. Maybe they haven’t had the hits that these other bands have had, but there is a huge catalog of music worth exploring. Check out the title track from the 2001 album Killing Ground below.
Crashdiet - The Savage Playground
Buckcherry - Confessions
Saxon - Sacrifice
Hell or Highwater - Begin Again
SUN - Something Unto Nothing
JORN - Symphonic

Completely Agree. Saxon is awesome.
Having worked with Graham Oliver, I’m probably biased, no…make that DEFINITELY biased! – but I would heartily recommend “Solid Ball of Rock” and “Dogs of War”. The Son of a Bitch album also had two real standout metal tracks – “Bitch of a Place to be” and the title track,”Victim You”.
I like that Son of a Bitch album too. still laugh at Ted Bullet’s ….slob job on my throb knob lyric….
