SAXON have release a lyric video for Queen Of Hearts. It's taken from Battering Ram, the follow-up to 2013's Sacrifice.

 

"With Queen of Hearts I wanted to write something around Lewis Carroll’s Alice In Wonderland, and it’s about the chess game that happens in the story," says Biff.

"I wanted it to have prog-feeling in the way of its ambiance and mood. It is a masterpiece of metal and stylistically it is loosely based in Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson."

 

Battering Ram was produced by Andy Sneap at his Backstage Recording Studios in rural Derbyshire, and will be released on October 16. Biff has described the album as "a clash between the retro Saxon and the modern Saxon." The band released a video for the title track in July, and will head out on tour in November, before joining Motorhead for their 40th anniversary shows early next year.
