"A chilly blend of wispy vocals, dark, poetic lyrics, and echoing, reverbed guitars over tight percussion, Iron Hero's sound is a taste of sheer shogaze-rock bliss" - Paste Magazine

"The music is often startlingly beautiful — awe-inspiring in the same way Hubble photographs portray an unfamiliar universe" - Delusions of Adequacy

"For a six-piece, the sound is surprisingly lean and muscular, with the rhythm section taking a prominent role in giving the songs an intoxicatingly propulsive character" - Tiny Mix Tapes

"These are dark, intricate songs born of post-punk mothers and synthesizer dads...Safe As Houses is a record with plenty of appeal for those willing to submerge themselves within its depths" - Cokemachineglow

"A thoroughly immersive listening experience that worms its way into your inner ear with nary a struggle" - IGN.com

"These songs could be huge and epic, but that might leave them feeling colder than they should be. Here they have just the right size and shape to keep you warm" - The Big Takeover

"Iron Hero achieves genuinely cathartic moments so gradually and naturally that the listener only realizes it once the music has stopped" - indieworkshop.com

Dear Iron Heroes,
You guys are great, but I have a couple of suggestions to make you even greater.
#1. Matching outfits. This works really well for bands trying to make it big.
#2. Dancing. You should hire a dancer to dance the whole time you are playing, plus you should have rehearsed choreography that you use during songs. This is a surefire way to get noticed.
#3. Make sure that everyone knows who is the sweet one, who is the tough one, who is the rebel, and who is the gay one. People like to know about their favorite bands without too much confusion.
Other than that, you guys are awesome.
PS. I will provide costumes at the stage door at your next show.

The new songs sound great dudes. Keep your shades up sounds very U2 influenced... thoMAS!!! (The odd case type is to indicate a crescendo in my scream)

Do you guys remember that time we all took a BOAT LOAD of mescaline and sauntered on down to the Winterville rodeo? Lawson ended up eating a cactus taco (con chorizo of course!!!!) and we all sang "I'm an Indian Outlaw" over the PA?

We were all so startled by the way the animals were being treated. We wept and spat and cursed those riders, but they were simply doing what they knew. We fully understood the interconnectivity of all things as we laid back, took turns smoking from a "Senaca 100" menthol cigarette, and marveled at our ability to see the individual particles in the air laid out before us like a grid as we lazily slinked between them. We found the color orange and sold it to "jazz."

We awoke, our bodies tangled naked together under a canopy of blazing stars. "I stepped in cow-shit," Sam said, and we all laughed and drank the rain water that had pooled in the center of the large leaves that were our bed.

For the first time in hours, (days? weeks? who knows?) I realized I was starving. "I am so hungry I could eat an iron gyro," I said.

We all looked at one another and knew...it was the start of something bigger than ourselves.
