FrontDebut from this melodic "nu-metal" hard rock band finds them creating the sound & style they would later perfect on "Silver." Traditionalists may scoff at the modern elements, but those who like big guitars & headbangin' riffs coupled with lots of layered backing vocals will think they've found the seventh level of Heaven when they hear this one. Face it, there are plenty of bands out there proving you can be simultaneously modern & melodic...these guys rank among the best of 'em.

"Attention, attention, the following record is meant to be played on 10," quite a way to start a record if you ask me! Iron Kobra have the balls of steel and the vicious riffs that are required to pass as a heavy metal band in this day and age. Coming from the speed metal side of things it's perhaps best to describe these guys as a nerdier Skull Fist. They've been around for 6 years now and Might & Magic is the veritable culmination of their work, proof that this kind of music has the power to reign loud and proud even in 2015.

FrontThis album pretty much came out of nowhere, and oh what a surprise! It’s keyboard-driven melodic rock with crunchy guitars and powerful choruses. Take the keyboard leads from Europe’s Final Countdown and combine them with strong German hard rock like Fair Warning or Bonfire, and that will give you a taste of what the band sounds like. Interestingly enough, it’s not on one of the usual European AOR/hard rock labels.
