Reviews:

El segundo en discordia

Los tiempos del "Demin and Leather" ya quedan un poco lejos, y la contundencia del grupo, va dejando paso a melodias más melancolicas y pasionales,con todo ello y la nueva utilización de sintetizadores, el grupo se torno más comercial, y este fue un gran año para la banda, que nos deleito con este rock'n ballads del año 1985, encabezado por la obra maestra "Broken Heroes" y acompañado de grandes canciones como "Rock & Roll Gypsy", "Rockin' Again" y "Back on the streets" entre otras.

Innocence isn't excuse to NOT buy this CD

Saxon is an unique band. The average American usualy has his/her brains programmed by the media and labels are soon posted on bands like Saxon. Truth of the matter is some bands make music for listeners with brains while the vast majority of MTV driven 'music' is for ears only.

This CD is for those with brains. As well as CDs from other bands that you probably like as well (Queensryche, Dream Theater, Rush, etc) because you DO have brains.

Ok, I could live without the triggered snare on this CD but hey, it's from the 80's so what can one expect? While hair bands without any talent were making huge amounts of money the true musicians could only go so far on trying to get a piece of the pie.

This CD is one of the best Saxon ever produced, along with Crusader, Power and the Glory and so many others.

So don't give yourself any more excuses and buy this CD.

More polished than before

Saxon, led by singer Biff Byford gave heavy metal a real fuel injection in the early 1980's, and their early albums are all classics that should be included in any metal fan's album collection. As the years went by, I guess Saxon became more and more eager to break into the American market where the British unpolished heavy metal hadn't appealed to the masses. "INNOCENT IS NO EXCUSE" (1985) is not Saxon's weakest album but it has a overall polished and more radio friendly approach suitable for American record buyers. Melodic tunes like "Back on the streets again" and "Call of the wild" are appealing , and the opening strong "Rocking again" together with the slow "Broken heroes" are the best songs on the album. Half of the material is good while the other half is not up to Saxon's previous standard (the dreadful debut album excluded). If you like Def Leppard's "Pyromania" and Quiet Riot's "Metal health", I bet you'll find this album enjoyable.
