'Solid Ball of Rock' is the tenth studio album by legendary heavy metal band Saxon and was originally released in 1991. Five of its eleven tracks were written by new bassist Nibbs Carter, who co-wrote another three songs.
The addition of young bassist Nibbs Carter seemed to inject new life into the group, which unleashed some of its most aggressive songs in years, including the full-on thrashing "Altar of the Gods" and positively scorching "Baptism of Fire."
"For our audience - and without an audience there is no band - our focus returned on 'Solid Ball of Rock'..." noted singer Biff Byford. "Since then, we've been right on it."
'Solid Ball of Rock' is available as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on gold colored vinyl and includes an insert. This special edition contains an additional and exclusive cover print.
Limited 180 gram Gold Vinyl pressing
