"Heavy Metal Thunder - The Movie" - New Saxon documentary to be released in December

Created by WackenHelge
11/08/2012

Saxon is going to release a special double pack for both their veteran and fresh fans in December: Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie.

The first disc contains a relentless feature length documentary about the Saxon history. All former and active members are involved and nothing is beautified.

“We do have a great legacy,” says Byford, “whether you joined the band in 1994 or (as) an original member.”

The second disc is filled with two concert movies from 1981 and 2008, two short documentaries and two additional specials from the Saxon archives. So talking about a bonus disc or something similar wouldn’t fit the scale.

 

DVD 1:

Saxon “Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie” (123 min.) – Feature length documentary

 

DVD 2:

Archive concert: Saxon on the Beat Club, 1981 - (56:41)

Concert: St. George’s Day 2008 - (50:49)

Mini documentary: Building the Labyrinth - (15:09)

Mini documentary: The Eagle & The Bomber - (19:52)

Archive Special: On a Crusade - (19:29)

Archive Special: No Excuse - (10:55)

 

Here is a short product teaser:

Heavy Metal Thunder – The Movie will entertain, engage and charm fans and non-fans alike. That’s a truth as honest as the film itself…
