Today, archaic metallers Atom Smasher premiere the new track “The Law” at heavily trafficked web-portal InvisibleOranges.com. The track hails from the band’s special split 7″ EP with Iron Kobra, set for international release on February 24th via Dying Victims Productions. Hear Atom Smasher‘s “The Law” in its entirety exclusively HERE.
Iron Kobra should be a familiar name to those who follow Dying Victims, as the Germans have become something of a “flagship band” for the label after their two full-lengths, 2012’s Dungeon Masters and 2015’s Might & Magic. And just as those two albums’ titles (and covers!) display, Iron Kobra are true-as-steel HEAVY METAL time-locked in 1984! And while it’s been quite quiet on the recorded front since that second full-length (aside from 2017’s Kerker & Drachen 7”), the bikers from Hell return with a brand-new track here, “Malicious Magician,” that’s a glorious return to form – and shows they’re ready for a gleaming-black new chapter, swords strapped to their iron steeds. On the flip is fellow Germans Atom Smasher: despite forming in 2010, it wasn’t until a decade later when they delivered their first EP. And while a four-way split followed the next year, the duo’s spare discography suggests quality over quantity – and that’s what you get with their track here, “The Law,” which is a moody & mysterious epic of equally archaic metal. Bright days ahead for Atom Smasher, and Dying Victims is stoked to get their name out there with the ever-reliable Iron Kobra.
