ALBUM

Innocence Is No Excuse (1985)

Saxon's seventh studio album, released in September 1985, marked their move to EMI after parting ways with Carrere Records and was the last to feature original bassist Steve Dawson. It leaned into a more polished, radio-friendly sound compared to their earlier work, though it still earned generally positive reviews.
