Iona are a heavy metal band from Pontypool, Wales, rooted in the NWOBHM tradition. They deliver classic British heavy metal from the Welsh valleys.
Iron Maiden are the towering titans of British heavy metal, whose galloping bass lines, twin-guitar harmonies, and Bruce Dickinson's operatic vocal power have defined the genre since 'The Number of the Beast' in 1982. From the epic storytelling of 'Powerslave' and 'Seventh Son of a Seventh Son' to their continued stadium-filling dominance with albums like 'Senjutsu,' Steve Harris's band remains the gold standard of heavy metal ambition and longevity.
Iron Pig is a nwobhm/heavy metal band from Farnham, United Kingdom, active since 2018 and forging classic heavy metal with conviction and power. The project channels the timeless spirit of traditional metal riffage.
