Satanic black metal...delivered for you directly from the gates of hell.

 

An album that balances raging blasts with mournful melody, covering a wide swath of black metal's history, but anchoring it in the here and now. Atmospheric and melodic, furious and blasphemous, 'The Wild Divine' endeavors to show you just how much black metal at its most devout already offers, rather than allowing the sound to grow so far from its roots that it becomes unrecognizable.

Hailing from eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania, IRONFLAME is a modern heavy metal outfit with traditionally-based ideals. Their fist-banging anthems hearken back to the sounds of such venerable acts as Riot, Nocturnal Rites, Running Wild, and Fifth Angel. Multi-instrumentalist Andrew D'Cagna formed IRONFLAME in late-2016 as a solo project, but the group soon became a formidable live unit. The current performing lineup consists of D'Cagna on vocals, guitarists Quinn Lukas and Jesse Scott, James Babcock on bass, and Noah Skiba behind the kit.

IRONFLAME has played high-profile festivals such as Legions of Metal in the U.S. and Keep it True in Germany alongside metal heavyweights such as Armored Saint, Grim Reaper, Flotsam and Jetsam, and Uli Jon Roth; and—having recently completed a European tour with Comaniac—a return to Europe is already taking shape for 2020 in support of the band's forthcoming third full-length, Blood Red Victory.
