I AM Premiere “The Iron Gate” Music Video

Posted by caemanamelio on

I AM have premiered a new video for their new song “The Iron Gate.” This track is from the band’s new album “Eternal Steel,” which will be released on September 9.

Vocalist Andrew Hileman said the following about the song:

“When searching for solace and protection, I tend to find it’s often met with opposite hostility. The process of growth only occurs when forced into these uncomfortable situations. ‘The Iron Gate‘ is that place of cruelty that I find so beautiful for the soul. Beware and enter if you dare.”

Guitarist Tom Reyes also added the following about the album:

“We took what we did well on ‘Hard 2 Kill‘ to new extremes on ‘Eternal Steel‘. It’s faster than the last album, it’s heavier than the last album, and it expands on every other aspect of our sound. ‘Heavy’ doesn’t always have to mean ‘slow.’ Frequently for us, the faster parts are equally as heavy.”

“Eternal Steel” Track Listing:

01. “The Primal Wave”
02. “Surrender To The Blade”
03. “The Iron Gate”
04. “Eternal Steel”
05. “Vicious Instinct”
06. “Infernal Panther”
07. “Queen Incarnate”
08. “Heaven On Earth”
09. “Price Of Pain”
10. “Eye Candy”
11. “Manic Cure”

We’re thrilled to be on our way to Europe right now for our upcoming tour with Thy Art Is Murder and we’re glad to be representing eOne and TEXAS DEATH.”

Posted by caemanamelio on

I Am have premiered a new video for their new song “Burn Slow.” This track is from the band’s new album “Hard 2 Kill,“ which will be released on November 2. Andrew Hileman said the following:

“This song embodies all evil incarnate — staring into its eyes and not even knowing what’s looking back at you. What I feel is so inhumane and disgusting. The song speaks for itself. No means ‘no.’”

I Am Premiere New Song “Hard 2 Kill”

Posted by caemanamelio on

I Am have premiered a new song titled “Hard 2 Kill.” This is the title track to the band’s new album, which will be released on November 2. Frontman Andrew Hileman commented:

“Growing up in a lower income situation, I always wanted to be on the other side, where my mother didn’t have to worry about feeding us. This song is about realizing I never needed that shit. Be empowered with who you are. Let people’s ignorance make you stronger.”
