Info:

Saracen has been together for 25 years, but some members have come and gone. Today, the original members Rob Bendelow and Steve Betteny are joined by the new drummer Mark Cross as well as a new label to back them up.
Saracen delivers typical English melodic hardrock incorporated with progressive elements. You can draw musical parallels between Saracen and acts like Magnum, Marillion, or the really early Judas Priest.
VOX IN EXCELSO is themed around the best selling book “The Da Vinci Code” by Dan Brown. Unfortunatley I haven’t got the lyrics so I can’t really say anything about that. There is a female voice that carries the story further in between the 12 songs. Even though the album is quite long at about 70 minutes of playing time, it doesn’t feel that long because of the much varied material. A few songs could have been left out but as a whole this is a competent album filled with great arrangements and songs.
