The beginning of a run of three very commercial albums for Saxon, but despite the shine, some fantastic songs on this album. 'Back On The Streets' is great (though maybe not as great as 'Waiting For The Night' on 'Rock The Nations').

This album is something of a guilty pleasure for me personally. Yes, it's pop metal crap full of diarrhea, but at least it's enjoyable pop metal crap full of diarrhea. I also love their less commercial stuff, so bite me, fanboys.

Sorry, didn't mean it like that, just my hyperbolic way of writing. This album usually seems to divide people a lot, not just here but... you know...

All three albums Saxon did in the second half of the 80s divide people, some like them, some don't, it's their commercial phse, story goes the label/management wanted them to go iin this direction (probably they thought they'd make more money).

Very melodic and AOR-ish. I like it. It's a good collection of songs with well written hooks.
