Saxon - Release Music Video For 'Fire And Steel'
British heavy metal legends Saxon have released a music video for "Fire And Steel", which was directed and edited by Paul M. Green. The song is taken from the band's most recent album Hell, Fire And Damnation, released this past January.
Frontman Biff Byford on the song: "The original title was "Fire And Steam" and the song itself is more thrash than classic metal. I was going to do it about something else, and then I had a bit of an epiphany and I thought 'Fire And Steel' was better. 'Let's do it about Sheffield.'
"If people were eating with a knife and fork back, say, a hundred years ago, that was something that sometimes was made in Sheffield. They invented stainless steel there, and there's still a lot of steel in Sheffield but nothing like it used to be.
"Sheffield was one of my big stomping grounds when I was a teenager. We used to go to Sheffield and see all the bands at Sheffield City Hall, and the clubs and pubs there that had bands on."
