Saxon - Gods Of Thunder

Saxon, the British heavy metal band, bring their Gods of Thunder show to the Eventim Apollo in London, with Castles also on the bill.

Saxon formed in Barnsley, England, in 1976 and are among the founding names of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. The band built its reputation on albums such as Wheels of Steel and Denim and Leather, and their songs have remained a fixture of their live catalogue for decades. Their music combines driving riffs with anthemic, sing-along choruses, a style rooted in the hard rock and early heavy metal of the 1970s.

The Gods of Thunder title points to this production of the band's work, and the concert is presented under that name in London. Castles also appear on the bill, so the evening combines two acts from the British rock and metal scene.

The Eventim Apollo is a concert venue at 45 Queen Caroline Street in west London, and it hosts a wide range of rock and metal tours. The night will suit listeners who follow classic British heavy metal and want to hear a band that has been performing since the late 1970s.
