In big news for all fans of good music played by weird people, Minneapolis's's own prog/melodic/classical/tidal warriors Iron Thrones just won the big No Label Required contest over on metalinsider.net. Long story short, the band (featuring Signaturetone producer, collaborator, and beard-owner Steve Henningsgard) is gonna be swept away to beautiful New Jersey for a recording session with Machine (Lamb of God, tons of others), a complete image and promotional overhaul, and pretty much everything that a growing band needs - hit up the NLR page for more info. Congrats boys! A quick note, though: I think the good people at Scion don't know what they're getting themselves into letting you get in front of cameras...
-adam, stoked as all hell for good bands getting recognized
