SAXON frontman Biff Byford was recently interviewed by Niclas Müller-Hansen of Sweden’s Metalshrine, where he talks about the band’s new album, which they plan to release in February 2013.
Metalshrine: What are you up to?
Biff: I’m in the studio actually, writing songs for the next album.
Metalshrine: How far gone are you?
Biff: Just a couple of songs at the moment.
Metalshrine: When you write, do you write with a guitar or…?
Biff: Well, the whole band’s here so we’re all writing together. It’s just a writing session. It’s going good.
Metalshrine: So this is probably planned for next year then?
Biff: Yeah, February 2013 is the scheduled release for it. It’s a mixture of classic rock and heavy metal. That’s where we’re at, at the moment. It should be good.
Metalshrine: Cool. Are you gonna produce it yourselves or bring someone in?
Biff: We’re gonna co-produce it ourselves and we’re gonna get Andy Sneap to mix it for us. He’s a pretty cool mix engineer.
