Iron Cross

About Me

IRON CROSS was formed in late 1979 and soon became a force to reckoned with in the Metal scene. They released their first album independently in 1986 to great reviews and radio play on college radio and on Z-Rocks nationally syndicated show. After an exhausting run of live shows they released the four song cassette EP “Die Like That” and took the show on the road again. Between 1988 and 1992, the band released the “Pieces” tape consisting of live and studio recordings, and made two complete music videos and another four song cassette EP, all financed by touring and merchandise sales. When the Metal scene declined in the early ‘90s, IRON CROSS took some well deserved time off. In late 1998, IRON CROSS released a double vinyl album on O.P.M. records limited to 666 copies worldwide. This album sold out within a few weeks after its release. Since Iron Glory knew about the unbelievable potential of the band, they decided to re-release their classic songs on CD for the first time. This self-titled release starts with the killer cut ‘Die Like That’, which is without doubt one of the best Speed Metal tracks ever !!! The other tracks like ‘Mistress Of The Dark’, ‘Demon’s Deciple’ or ‘Halloween’ also show the band’s ability to combine both melodic and powerful, brain crushing elements to form their own style, leading you into their own magical world of evil forces. Their image and music can be compared to Metal heroes like MANILLA ROAD, ANGEL WITCH or HALLOWEEN. With the ball rolling, the band has set sights on working in new member Steve Snyder who replaced Rex Allen touring and working on the new CD, and has no intention of stopping until their goals are met. IRON CROSS will be playing some Florida shows and upcoming Metal Festivals. Their live performances are pure energy which you can hardly imagine if you haven’t seen it yourself. IRON CROSS will definitely crush your mind !
