New Thrash Supergroup!

Has anyone heard Iron Steel yet? Members include: David Ellefson (ex-Megadeth) Morgan Rose (Sevendust) Jim LaMarca (Chimaira) Rachel Bolan (Skid Row) Its parody metal but the talent is sick! if you have not heard them yet check www.myspace.com/ironsteel666

Thought?

I don't like it. I can't believe Dave Ellefson has been reduced to this.

My reason for not liking it is mainly the singers voice (sounds like a stuck pig). Not to mention the lame song content.

Heard this before. The singer is complete crap. They should get a real singer, write good lyrics, and make a badass album! Wasted talent.

i quite like it in a bizarre way. i would be more interested if the guitar tone was not as wimpy as it is

They cold use a little work, I guess. New singer, maybe.

Sounds awful!!

But Dave Ellefson's got bills to pay, I guess.

Hate to see Dave and Bolan wasted like that. It's sort of funny but musically doesn't hold my attention.

It's really no more of a parody than Megadeth is these days. Ellefson could have just stayed put if this is what he wanted to do.

Fightin' words.

I apologize, et. I just listened to this band more closely. They are leaps and bounds worse than Megadeth.

These guys may ooze more cheese than 3 Inches of Blood.

Which takes some doin'.

Nothing sounded super about to me.

not my cup of tea

Not that bad, however I agree with those who said that they' ll probably shoul get a better singer....

To me this is awesome! I mean all these shitty bands with the word 'blood,bloody,bleeding' and all the 'hardcore.com' wannabes, you know its just the same smurf poo! The smurf poo is funny and the music BLOWS away anything I have heard in a couple of years!

Ok, musically this is ok. Not NEARLY as good as many of the retro-thrash acts out there now, but MUCH better than most modern bands.

But MY WORD that singer! He sounds like he's got his nuts in a vice. Who convinced this clown he could or even SHOULD sing? That fool has gots ta go!

actually i'm getting into this the more i listen to it. the vocals remind me of Iron Angel or Sacred Steel.

Well their name didn't fall far from that comparison. They should have titled their album Sacred Angel.

If you read the blog in the 'new kids on the block' you will 'GET' it...... The singer was on tour as a photographer and they where bored and couldn't score chick or something.... It was all in good fun and the other songs are KILLER!!!! STD is the best and then Attack to me... Yeah the singer sux but he is supposed to! LOL!

Is it me, or did the song Attack sound a bit like Priest's Painkiller in the vocal lines?

hahaha it gave a me laugh. i don't mind the vocals they fit somehow, they remind of someone but i can't think who right now

EDIT: he sounds like tim baker from cirith ungol. thats the one

oh yeah, 'attack' is just a rip off off painkiller but i reckon it was probably intentional
