His Name Was Iron, ‘I Calls Em Likes I Sees Em’ — Song Premiere

When your album is called 'Chariots for Hire,' and you have a song called 'I Calls Em Like I Sees Em,' you're obviously not burying your intentions beneath a wall of sound. His Name Was Iron are a bunch of fine, upstanding Southern gentlemen from Jacksonville, Fla. who craft mosh-friendly music under the 'Southern party metal' tag. Despite only forming in 2008, His Name Was Iron will release their Masquerade Recordings/Warner Music debut, 'Chariots for Hire' on Aug. 10 and Noisecreep is pleased to tip metalheads off to the band with this breakdown-infused, Southern-fueled rager by premiering the album's lead track.

"With this first record, we're hoping that there is something for a broad range of fans," vocalist/guitarist Evan Paluszynski told Noisecreep. "From metalheads to punk rockers -- and even those that like a little bit of sugary pop. We feel like we pulled some tricks out of our sleeveless shirts and wrote a record that is dynamic and colorful. We're proud of the finished product."

The result is Southern party metal, a term that His Name Was Iron certainly haven't coined, but one that is appropriate and applicable. "Southern party metal is a phrase we came up with to describe our music," Paluszynski said. "It's the music that we would throw on and rage to. We hope that when people hear it, it makes them want to party and have a good time. That's what we're about: just having a good time regardless of how you go about having a good time. We want people to just let go and forget about the world and just party when they hear our music."

In today's recession-scarred economy -- and when people are doing more messed up things to one another than ever -- it's a band like His Name Was Iron that can help you let your hair down and rock the hell out for four minutes, no matter what your situation or station in life.
