Query: Forever pedestrian...

Still finding their feet after their obnoxious glam / hair metal phase of the middle-eighties, Saxon returned to a more traditional heavy metal sound in SOLID BALL OF ROCK. FOREVER FREE follows that direction, but with one unpleasant surprise: the album is simply bad. No imagination. Boring, pedestrian and one of the worst entries ever in the otherwise generally very good Saxon catalog. The songs are lifeless, the playing is going through the motions. Only with UNLEASH THE BEAST (1997) would Saxon recover their former glory.
