    CONGRATULATIONS: Netflix Announces Release of Documentary on Saxon Titled “Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy”

     

    In a powerful tribute to one of Britain’s most enduring heavy metal icons, Netflix has officially announced the release of a brand-new music documentary titled “Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy.” The highly anticipated film will premiere globally on September 19, 2025, and promises to take viewers on a thunderous journey through the rise, struggles, triumphs, and legacy of Saxon, one of the pivotal bands of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement.

    A Roaring Salute to a Heavy Metal Institution

    With a career spanning over four decades, Saxon has been instrumental in shaping the sound and attitude of classic heavy metal. Known for anthemic tracks like “Denim and Leather,” “Princess of the Night,” and the titular “Wheels of Steel,” the band’s music has long stood as a rallying cry for rock and metal fans across generations. Now, Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy brings the band’s exhilarating story to life with never-before-seen archival footage, candid interviews, and explosive live performances.

    Produced by Rogan Media in association with Netflix Originals, the documentary is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Laura Hensley, known for her insightful storytelling in previous rock documentaries such as “Sound & Thunder: The Deep Purple Years.”

    “This is more than just a film about music,” Hensley says. “It’s about endurance, passion, and the iron will to stay true to your sound, even as the world around you changes.”

    Featuring Legendary Commentary and Rock Royalty

    The documentary includes in-depth interviews with Saxon frontman Biff Byford, guitarists Paul Quinn and Doug Scarratt, bassist Nibbs Carter, and drummer Nigel Glockler. These members share heartfelt and raw reflections on the band’s early struggles in post-industrial England, the meteoric rise during the early ’80s, the trials of lineup changes, and their incredible resurgence in the modern metal era.

    Viewers will also hear commentary from fellow metal icons and industry insiders, including:

    • Rob Halford of Judas Priest
    • Lars Ulrich of Metallica
    • Dave Mustaine of Megadeth
    • Steve Harris of Iron Maiden
    • Renowned journalist Malcolm Dome (archival interviews)

    These figures reflect on Saxon’s role in carving the path for heavy metal, often citing them as a band that “never got the full credit they deserved—but always delivered with honesty and thunder.”

    From Barnsley to the World Stage

    One of the most emotionally resonant parts of the film highlights Saxon’s modest beginnings in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, and their dedication to building a global following despite industry obstacles and limited mainstream exposure.

    Biff Byford shares: “We weren’t about glam or gimmicks. We were about grit. We sang about the working class, about riding bikes, about freedom. That connected with people all over the world, not just the UK.”

    The documentary traces their influence across continents, from sweaty club gigs in the Midlands to headline performances in Wacken, Germany, and festivals in South America. It showcases the undying loyalty of their fan base—often called “the steel army”—and how the band’s hard-working ethos helped them survive the seismic shifts in the music industry, from vinyl to streaming.

    Behind the Scenes and Studio Revelations

    Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy also offers an exclusive look into the making of their most iconic albums, including Strong Arm of the Law, Crusader, and their recent critically acclaimed release Hell, Fire and Damnation (2024). Fans will enjoy previously unreleased demos, studio banter, and tour footage that spans decades.

    Additionally, the film documents how Saxon refused to compromise artistically during the grunge era and digital age, choosing instead to double down on what made them unique: bone-crushing riffs, soaring vocals, and tales of battle, history, and motorcycles.

    A Triumph of Timeless Metal Spirit

    With its cinematic storytelling, authentic tone, and roaring soundtrack, Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy stands as both a tribute and a call to arms for metalheads worldwide. Whether you’re a longtime devotee of the band or new to their legacy, the documentary is set to reignite passion for real heavy metal music.

    Global Premiere & Streaming Details

    The documentary will premiere in select UK cinemas on September 13, 2025, followed by a global Netflix release on September 19, 2025. It will be available in multiple languages and formats, including Ultra HD and Dolby Atmos, to deliver the full force of Saxon’s sound to viewers worldwide.

    Netflix has also announced a special companion soundtrack album to be released on vinyl and digital platforms, featuring remastered classics and live recordings from throughout Saxon’s storied career.


    Get ready to raise your fists and bang your heads — Wheels of Steel: The Saxon Legacy is not just a documentary. It’s a declaration that true metal never dies.
