Iron Kingdom - 'Blood and Steel' (official lyric video)

Το μακρινό 2004 τα αδέρφια Chris και Amanda Osterman δημιούργησαν τους Twisted. Τον Ιούνιο του 2011 η μπάντα μετονομάσθηκε σε Iron Kingdom και συνεχίζει μέχρι τις ημέρες μας (αν και η Amanda Osterman αποχώρησε το 2015). Το συγκρότημα συστήνεται κάπως έτσι:

Inspired by legendary pillars of heavy metal such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, The Scorpions, and Rush, this four-piece is well known for their energetic and electrifying stage presence, as well as intricate musical melodies that bring listeners back to a time when heavy metal was in its prime.

Οι Iron Kingdom έχουν κυκλοφορήσει πέντε "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους ("Curse of the Voodoo Queen" 2011, "Gates of Eternity" 2013, "Ride for Glory" 2015 και "On the Hunt" 2019, "The Blood of Creation" 2022) με τον έκτο να βρίσκεται προ των πυλών. "Shadows and Dust" ο τίτλος και αναμένεται στα ξεκινήματα του καλοκαιριού...
