Denmark’s IRON FIRE strike back with a vengeance!
Their ninth full-length "Beyond The Void", mixed and mastered by legendary producer Tue Madsen, will be released on 8th March 2019 via Crime Records.
Expect an honest in-your-face album, filled with blistering Power Metal songs that melt traditional melodic Heavy Metal with hard-hitting Thrash!
A lyric video for the title track is available below:
How do you topple great power metal albums like Voyage of the Damned and Among the Dead?
Well, the answer from Iron Fire is supposed to keep the focus on songwriting straight, keep the approach real and speak straight from the beating metal heart. Beyond the Void is, therefore, nothing but an honest in your face metal album, filled with blistering power metal songs that melt traditional melodic heavy metal with hard-hitting power trash. This melting pot of heavy metal madness is mixed and mastered by legendary producer Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Dark Tranquillity, Madball etc.).
This is an album spanning from Testament to Judas Priest to Helloween and beyond. Fans of good heavy metal songwriting should give this new creation a spin.

Iron Fire is therefore now a three piece band that still clings on to melodic old school power metal as it was meant to be played. The music however is never still and is devolved over time. From the dark epic of Voyage of the Damned, over the rock n roll influenced March of the Immortals, to classic power hymns like Wings of Rage.
But first and foremost Iron Fire takes power metal very literally, as the common denominator in the music is, and has always been power - with a capital P…
