Destiny is the ninth studio album by English heavy metal band Saxon, released in March 1988. It is also the only studio album to feature the rhythm section of drummer Nigel Durham (later in Oliver/Dawson Saxon and Morpheus Rising[1]) and bassist Paul Johnson (former Heritage, later in U.S.I. and Demon) on it.[2]

The album was produced by Stephan Galfas (Stryper, Cher, Savatage) and the last studio album Saxon recorded for EMI who dropped the band when the album sales were disappointing. During the tour for this album, Durham and Johnson were sacked and replaced in 1988 by bassist Nibbs Carter and a returning Nigel Glockler on drums who finished the tour.

Durham stated in a 2015 interview with Glenn Milligan of Metalliville that "EMI & the Producer were trying to make the band more commercial and radio friendly and that just isn't Saxon."[3]

The album has been remastered and repackaged several times with various bonuses such as a 12" mix of the single "I Can’t Wait Anymore" plus live B-Sides "Broken Heroes" and "Gonna Shout", both recorded live in Madrid, a live take of "Rock the Nations" recorded at the Hammersmith Odeon, which originally appeared as the B-side to "Ride Like the Wind", and some alternative monitor mixes.
