Fun times await you, Charger!

Well...

Hell, Fire and Damnation got me to get
Call to Arms which got me to get
Carpe Diem which got me to get (after plowing through a lot of mediocre metal from a 10-year period in which Saxon flat out wimped out...)
Unleash the Beast

February is officially Saxon Month for me! I will likely get more...

And now I got Saxon's Sacrifice. Into the Labyrinth from Saxon is imminent, due to the strength of "Demon Sweeney Todd". If the rest of the album has a few more bangers like that, I'mma gettin' it.

EDIT: Valley of the Kings just happened, getting Into the Labyrinth NOW!

Got Lionheart, damn that's a fine rocker of an album!

Well here we go!!

That's where you start. For the later stuff, Unleash the Beast is a great place to begin, as it nicely book-ends the whole of the Scarratt era with the latest album.

Heck yeah!

More Saxon?

Well don't mind if I do!

In the last week or two I've acquired a few albums...

Marillion - An Hour Before Dark
Ashes of Ares - Emperors and Fools (quite a bland metal album on first listen)

and arrived today:

Bruce Dickinson - The Mandrake Prioject

Bandcamp run!

Nice and juicy hard rock / metal / punk / action rock set there. All of it tasty enough on the free play-through to justify a timely purchase.

At the same time, I made a run of a different sort over at Amazon, as I wanted to bolster my supply of 19th-Century Romantic compositions...
