Kaoz Talks - Ep.143 - Brian Tatler (Saxon Interview)

[@khelatar]

A swell, easy-going guy and a great guitarist. Saxon hit the jackpot getting him. It's a pity DH won't be seen playing live for a while, but as he says it gives them all the more time for songwriting and working on new stuff.

There is no question about it, SAXON found the best guitarist (from all aspects) to fill those big shoes. We cannot wait for the US tour! Thank you for watching and commenting. It means a lot to us.

Great album! Madame Guillotine is a wicked track. Brain's contribution has been fantastic!

[@MetalKaozTube]

Yes, the first time I listen to this song I knew "someone" had contributed to the songwriting! I hope they will add it on the setlist.

I don't understand how an iconic band like Saxon changes an original member of a lifetime, with a unique mark in their sound, style and so on!, and places a standard mid-level guitarist!, without detracting from their work, but it doesn't even reach anywhere near the level required by this legendary band! Just compare Saxon!! with Diamond Head!, it is not normal that an iconic guitarist, founder of a big band in quotes, "accepts playing in a bigger band!!, well it must be for a reason!!, surely he must still think that it is a dream!!, no one was going to make him a proposal of that magnitude!, good for him!, but what about the loyal fans who knew how to listen to the original Saxon and know well who the real Saxon is!! today is an attempt to resemble the legitimate!, and irreversible!, Saxon did not learn the lesson of Maiden, or Ozzy in the return of Sabbath, we are only listening to a band with Biff and Nigel and guests!, who lost their way, they forgot their essence of what made them great, simply Rock and Roll!! it's over!!, for example Motorhead, AC/DC never lost their identity!! Paul's absence is noticeable, with the terrible new album!!

First of all, thank you for checking the interview and commenting. There is no way a band that has been around this long, like SAXON, to maintain the same lineup. With that been said, I understand that you may feel that the sound has changed. In that case, you can just skip this album or the band all together. I do not agree with what you said about DIAMOND HEAD; this band was part of the NWOBHM scene but were unlucky just like so many bands of that time period that did not make it big. Brian is a fantastic guitarist but he was not added to SAXON lineup to replace Paul, but to take over the live playing duties. It just happened to contribute to the new album and honestly, what he did sounds great.
