Why should major label bands be the only ones who get love? Unsigned & Streamed is a new column where we stream a song from an unsigned band we at Metal Insider really dig.
This week, we’re proud to put the spotlight on Cleveland’s Deadiron. The five piece band has been making a name for themselves in their home city’s live circut. In fact, Deadiron recently performed for Metal Sanaz and Project Independent in their talent search for the best independent band, and were the only metal band from Cleveland to make the cut for the national competition (online voting for this starts on December 1). The band’s sound is an interesting blend of melodic metal and hardcore, with Iron Maiden and At The Gates style riffs mixed with the aggression of bands like Blood For Blood. So without further ado, take a listen to a song off of Deadiron’s three song demo (available for download via the band’s website) called “Underdog” in the stream below.
