Striker’s new music video captures ’80s saxophone metal at its best

Striker’s new music video captures ’80s saxophone metal at its best
Salad Days

Seventh studio album ‘Ultrapower’ out Feb 2024. Produced by Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Tallah, King 810).

Remember the glory days of the ’80s… and the world’s most jacked and shirtless saxophone player Tim Cappello (Tina Turner, 1987 vampire film ‘The Lost Boys’)? Well, the shred masters in Striker have resurrected that nostalgic sound from those iconic years with their saxophone mashup track ‘Give It All’ beautifully wrapped up in a retro-fitting music video that can be viewed below.

“‘Give It All’ is a song written for the soundtrack of an ’80s action movie that doesn’t exist. It’s for the kid risking it all to win the big game, or the down-and-out cop that’s gotta push it to the limit to survive.” adds the band.

This latest single from Striker is off their forthcoming new album ‘Ultrapower’ produced with Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Tallah, King 810) and due out on February 2, 2024. The seventh full-length follows their Juno Award-winning self-released record ‘Play To Win’ (2018) unleashed on their label Record Breaking Records and features the band’s latest lineup addition of long-time friend and guitarist John Simon Fallon (The Order Of Chaos).
