Queens Of The Stone Age har med åren vuxit sig till att bli ett av vår tids största rockband. Med<br/>fem tidigare album i ryggen och oräkneliga världsturnéer bakom sig spänner de återigen bågen och presenterar '...Like Clockwork', ett monumentalt album som gästas av Sir Elton John, David Grohl, Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys), Mark Lanegan, Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails) Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) och många fler. Bandets sångare och frontman Joshua Homme beskriver albumet som 'en ljuddokumentär över ett maniskt år'. '...Like Clockwork', som följer upp 'Era Vulgaris' från 2007, spelades in i Pink Duck Studios i Burbank och är producerat av bandet själva.<br/><br/>"Utan tvekan är '.Like Clockwork' det mest genomarbetade från Queens of The Stone Age sedan 'Songs of The Deaf'" - Close-Up Magazine, 9/10<br/> <br/>"På rätt köl med lysande melankoli" - SvD, 5/6<br/> <br/>"om man ska ta den snart fridlysta gitarrocken vidare är det här ett utmärkt sätt att göra det på." - Aftonbladet, 4/5<br/> <br/>"Josh Homme kan mycket väl vara den coolaste i världen." - Nöjesguiden, 5/6<br/> <br/>"Omsorgsfullt komponerad och hjärtskärande uppriktig." - Göteborgs Posten, 4/5<br/><br/>"'...Like Clockwork' är en mycket lyckad återkomst och den cementerar bandet som ett av 2000-talets största rockband." - Festivalrykten, 8/10<br/> <br/>"De omöjligas mästare" - Uppsala Nya Tidning, 4/5<br/><br/>"Smygande briljans" - Nya Wermlands Tidning, 4/5<br/> <br/>"'Like clockwork' kan ses som en återgång till genombrottsskivan "Songs for the deaf" - Corren, 4/5<br/> <br/>Gaffa, 5/6

With a storming new stomp in their boots and a renewed, lithe swagger to their legendary sound, Saxon will release "Sacrifice", in February 2013 through UDR. Taking a sharper, re-invigorated approach to the production, on this, their 20th album, Saxon have produced 10 of their strongest, heaviest and most inspired songs for many-a-year, and a more than worthy successor to their last album "A Call To Arms".<br/><br/>"Less tricks, more power!" roars frontman and founding father Biff Byford, "my brief to the band was to be raw, be real and not be afraid to look back at the old classic material for inspiration."<br/><br/>The album was recorded at LS Studios in Yorkshire and was produced by Byford with Andy Sneap mixing and engineering by Jacky Lehmann. It fairly bristles with muscular metallic intent, Paul Quinn's and Doug Scarratt's guitar work the best it's ever been, while Biff's vocals sound fresher and livelier. The songwriting too harks back to a classic era in Saxon's history, with the likes of 'Warriors Of The Road', 'Wheels Of Terror' and 'Stand Up And Fight' evoking the halcyon days of yore with a contemporary twist, the classic Saxon sound absorbing the snarl, ferocity and attitude of contemporary bands (and fans) such as Megadeth, as evidenced by the crunching title cut 'Sacrifice'.<br/><br/>"It's certainly been done from a more early '80s thrashier perspective," explains Biff, "and it's not just guitars bashing away willy-nilly, they've got a fresh drive, purpose and perspective."<br/><br/>Besides the new material, Saxon will also be adding some unique recordings of revisited classic to certain formats of the release, also produced by Byford and mastered by Andy Sneap, including an orchestrated version of 'Crusader' and an acoustic version of 'Frozen Rainbow'.<br/><br/>"From the songs to the production, I wanted to focus on the raw aspects which made us great in the first place," concludes Biff, "And living in that rawness, combined with some great classic Saxon-songwriting, has in my opinion made Saxon fresher than ever."
