Wheels Of Steel

Saxon

Saxon helped define a faster, more aggressive shift in metal music with this release. The title track remains a prominent biker anthem from the early eighties.

Twin-guitar riffs and raw production highlight the Sheffield scene of the era. The record is loud and direct, marking the transition from traditional hard rock to more intense styles.
