"I honestly can't think of any other band I've heard that sounds like them. A feat very little accomplished in the metal scene these days ... this band is destined for something good in the near future". - Metalholic Music.
"Ironwood, in all honesty were one of my favourite bands to watch of the weekend. Hands down the best show I’ve ever seen them put on. This band has amazing musicianship, very progressive adding a few different styles in their music to give themselves what I believe to be a sound of their own - worldwide. Their music is very technical and has some of the hugest bass lines I’ve ever seen. All 3 front men sharing the vocal duties, catchy beats… I don't think I need to say too much more.. get this band on your line-ups!" - Chaos ACT IV Festival Live Review at MetalObsession.net.
"A majestic, beautiful and eclectic set of songs" -Zero Tolerance Magazine.
"Not only do Ironwood manage to get away with this cornucopia, they do so in a manner most bands can only dream of. The contrast between the soft and harsh passages is extremely effective, and the melding of disparate influences such as prog, folk and black is near flawless" - Chronicles of Chaos.
"This is a beautiful, awe inspiring CD" - Neo-Zine.
"[T]hese are some of the most superb lyrics that I have ever read" - Heathen Harvest.
"Ironwood show ridiculous potential, and should be quite proud of their debut recording." - PyroMusic.net.
"Their level of musicianship in general is fantastic, as is their ability to inject mood within the sound of a track" - The Metal Forge.
"The deeply sung vocals are elegantly layered and fit perfectly alongside the melancholy acoustics" - Metal Review Dot Com.
"This is a fine first demo, one that displays a good deal of variety ... Recommended, especially for fans of complex pagan bands like Bifrost, Hades, and Cruachan." - Vorfeed.

Ironwood is the forest through which any who would travel from Midgard, this world, to the underworld of Hel must pass.
It is a liminal realm, threatening, dangerous, a domain of power.
In myth it is the ancestral home of wolves.
In the underworld all wisdom dwells, for there all is remembered.
The light of Bifrost lies at the far side of Hel, leading to the halls of Asgard.
From below to above are the lineages of all things revealed, interconnected and whole.
The Ironwood must be braved if wisdom is to be won.
