Iron Fire

Denmarks best selling power metal band Iron Fire is still alive and kickin’.

19 years ago when a new millennium was entered, the Thunderstorm album struck the world and is today considered a Danish power metal cult classic. Seven albums later the band still breathes as vibrant as ever, and although there have been various line-up changes, founding member Martin Steene and his sidekick Kirk Backarach pushes the boundaries of the band. In addition to Steene and Kirk, another founding member joined the battlefield, as original drummer Gunnar Olsen rejoined the band in 2015, after 15 years of absence. 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…

Bridgeville

Bridgeville is a rock band from the city of Skien, Norway. The band was formed in the fall of 2013 by Martin Steene of the Danish Metal band Iron Fire, and the Norwegian Hard Rock band Absinth. All of the guys share the same passion for classic rock music, and bands like Bon Jovi, Whitesnake, and Def Leppard are influences that are worth mentioning. The vision of the band is to create good old fashioned Rock 'N Roll music stirred up with a modern flavor.

 

Their first single and video Absinthia was released in 2014 followed by some local live shows, and in 2015 Bridgeville signed a record contract with Crime Records for the release of debut album Aftershock.

Martin Steene   Vocals
