I have tried for 10 minutes to come up with a funny comment to attequately describe those attrocious vocals, but I just can't. Some things are better left as their own punchlines.

About Iron Steel
Iron Steel was formed in one day and has gone on to be the most successful band in history. Masterminds Fran Strine and Frederic Leclercq recorded Attack in one take April 7th, 2007 at the House of Blues in Chicago, Ill. Say’s Patrick Lachman “ I have jammed with one of greatest vocalist of all time when I was in Halford, but when I heard the vocal power of Fran Strine I almost fainted, and the musical wizardness of Frederic Leclercq is spell binding”.

I dont have no idea if this is selfirony, or a very mental sick person.

the riff kinda reminded me of Slayer's "Silent Scream", not bad at all. the vocals were atrocious, though.

anyway this has to be a joke - iron steel? lolocaust!

My ears are hurting after one listen.

HAHA!! What the hell? Read the people's comments at the bottom of the page. Some of them actually like it. :lol:

To me it sounds like an attempt to make fun of Judas Priest, which of course is like a drunken heckler trying to tale on Bill Hicks.

witteijsbeer · **Posted:** Sat Apr 14, 2007 6:43 pm

Holy shit, those vocals sound like a cat on helium :lol:

Nobody else hears a Halford piss-take?

Hah, when the first riff kicked in I was like yeah! :dio:

But when the vocals kicked in I was like is this a joke or what the... Because the verse vocal lines are ripped 1to1 from Painkiller! How come no one has pointed that out yet?!
I didn't see anything bad in the vocalist, other than maybe they should have mixed him higher... Coz I thought the vocalist, although totally OTT, did a fair job in mimicking Rob and the 80's style. I could even imagine that with a real recording with a good producer they'd actually sound pretty good. Just if they'd not venture into the 3 Inches Of Poo realm :lame:

The guitar playing was really good.

Heh, the title of the band is like the definite cliché on power metal

I think we came up with it too when joking about the topic with my cousin many years ago

(I bet others might have as well...)

Ha ha, this is amazing. How could anyone doubt whether this was a joke? Completely beautiful stuff.

That's definitely a joke...the playing's actually not bad, though.

So did I, but I guessed it was pretty obvious that they ripped painkiller...

I now bow before the awesome might that is Iron Steel! Iron Steel shall conquer the world!

The vocals still aren't as bad as Dave Padden though...
