In β€œMadame Guillotine”, lead singer and founding member Biff Byford, chooses to give voice to the infamous torturing device, best known for its use in the French Revolution between 1789 and 1799. β€œBoth this and the title track songs are written by me and Brian actually, and this is very β€˜Saxon’, so much as I don’t think anybody else could pull that off,” comments Byford. β€œI sung it as if the guillotine is a person, that the actual guillotine has a bit of a conscience. I love the groove, it’s got a great groove!” Listen To/Watch β€œThere’s Something In Roswell”: Listen To/Watch β€œHell, Fire And Damnation”: HELL, FIRE AND DAMNATION WORLD TOUR (Part 1) 11 March – OVO Hydro, Glasgow (UK) 13 March – First Direct Arena, Leeds (UK) 15 March – 3Arena, Dublin (IE) 17 March – BIC, Bournemouth (UK) 19 March – Resorts World Arena, Birmingham (UK) 21 March – OVO Arena Wembley, London (UK) 24 March – Festhalle, Frankfurt (DE) 25 March – Olympiahalle, MΓΌnchen (DE) 26 March – Volksbank Messe, Balingen (DE) 27 March – Westfalenhalle, Dortmund (DE) 29 March – O2 Arena, Prague (CZ) 30 March – Tauron Arena, KrakΓ³w (PL) 1 April – Wiener Stadhalle, Vienna (AT) 2 April – Roxy, Ulm (DE) 3 April – St. Jakobshalle, Basel (CH) 5 April – Halle Tony Garnier, Lyon (FR) 6 April – Mediolanum Forum, Milan (IT) 8 April – ZΓ©nith, Paris (FR) 13 June – Sant Jordi Club, Barcelona (ES) 15 June – Navarra Arena, Pamplona (ES) 17 June – Palacio Vistalegre, Madrid (ES) 1 July – Barclays Arena, Hamburg (DE) 2 July – Max-Schmeling-Halle, Berlin (DE) 4 July – Arena NΓΌrnberger, NΓΌrnberg (DE) 8 July – Sap Arena, Mannheim (DE) 10 July – Messehalle, Dresden (DE) HELL, FIRE & CHAOS - THE BEST OF BRITISH ROCK & METAL TOUR 23 April – The Parker, Fort Lauderdale, FL 24 April – Seminole Hard Rock Hotel And Casino, Tampa, FL 25 April – The Plaza Live, Orlando, FL 27 April – Buckhead Theatre, Atlanta, GA 28 April – Mercury Ballroom, Louisville, KY 30 April – The Metropolitan Theatre, Morgantown, WV 1 May – Roxian Theatre, Pittsburgh, PA 2 May – Penn’s Peak, Jim Thorpe, PA 3 May – Bergen Performing Arts Center, Englewood, NJ 5 May – Citizens House of Blues, Boston, MA 7 May – Patchogue Theatre, Long Island, NY 8 May – Keswick Theatre, Glenside, PA 10 May – Paramount Hudson Theatre, Peekskill, NY 11 May – TempleLive at Cleveland Masonic, Cleveland, OH 12 May – The Lerner Theatre, Elkhart, IN 13 May – Saint Andrew’s Hall, Detroit, MI 14 May – GLC Live at 20 Monroe, Grand Rapids, MI 16 May – People’s Bank Theatre, Marietta, OH 17 May – Bogart’s, Cincinnati, OH 18 May – Rialto Square Theatre, Joliet, IL 19 May – Arcada Theatre, St. Charles, IL 21 May – Brown County Music Center, Nashville, IN 22 May – The Pabst Theater, Milwaukee, WI 24 May – Gillioz Theatre, Springfield, MO 25 May – TempleLive at Scottish Rite Center, Wichita, KS 27 May – Haute Spot, Cedar Park, TX 29 May – House Of Blues, Houston, TX 30 May – Tobin Center for the Performing Arts, San Antonio, TX 31 May – Glass Cactus, Dallas, TX 2 June – Speaking Rock Casino, El Paso, TX Tickets/Info: They call me the death I’ve come to settle your debt Marie Antoinette I took your pretty head I am the scourge of the rich Revenge of the poor Your cries are in vain I can’t help with your pain The arrangements are made You will die by my blade Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head For Madame Guillotine The revolution came I was never to blame It was my purpose to kill But people came for the thrill For the sound of the mob Baying for your blood And I show no remorse I am set on my course All I feel is the drop of my blade Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head For Madame Guillotine There was never enough To satisfy the lust For the head in this basket Another corpse for the casket To entertain the crowd Your severed head held proud I’ve no feeling of guilt Why my structure was built I’m a slave to my masters, I do as I’m bid Just let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to meet you But please don’t lose your head Let me introduce you To Madame Guillotine She’ll be pleased to see you Be careful with your head To Madame Guillotine Please don’t lose your head To Madame guillotine To Madame guillotine
