Had Queensrÿche never 'grown up' beyond, say, 1984, they'd probably sound like Iron Fire, and one needn't delve too deep into the Danish power metal ensemble's seventh album, Voyage of the Damned, to arrive at this assumption. Heck, if the junior high notebook-worthy cover art doesn't give away the kitty, then the sophomoric computerized dystopia depicted by 'Enter Oblivion OJ-666' certainly should, as it basically reprises the ‘rÿche's 'NM 156' for the new millennium, with far less stellar results. Oh, but it doesn't end there, as ensuing numbers like 'Slaughter of Souls,' 'Ten Years in Space,' and 'Dreams of the Dead Moon' carry on, pushing the futuristic outer space trip with oft-clumsy lyrics about Star Gates, speed-of-light time dilation, and dusty satellites. There's also a painfully sappy love song aimed at little green men named 'The Final Odyssey,' and a ten-minute 'epic' in the shape of the title track, clogging up hyperspace with its bulging hubris and razor-thin imagination (Martin Steene's histrionic delivery doesn't help matters, either). Beyond this, Iron Fire, to their credit, actually put on a good show of instrumental prowess throughout this LP, and they admittedly don't commit that many more sins than your average power metal ensemble (emphasis on 'average'), but suffice to say there's nothing groundbreaking or overly exciting to report when a few simplistic synth lines frequently draw the most attention to tracks like 'Taken,' 'Leviathan,' and 'Realm of Madness.' Actually, the fact that Voyage of the Damned's ham-fisted sci-fi metal was unveiled just days before the international geek holiday of 2-1-12, which of course celebrated Rush's original form-defining magnum opus, only served to highlight Iron Fire's station in an entirely different galaxy, where quality is concerned.

'Voyage of the Damned' (2012) is the seventh album from Danish power metal band Iron Fire. With “Voyage of the Damned,” Iron Fire succeeds in flipping the traditional power metal formula over and giving it a more modern feel. Iron Fire has been a tumultuous unit for the first nine years of existence. From 1995-2003, the band was a revolving door, with the only surviving member being vocalist Martin Steene.

History[edit]
After releasing a demo in the late 1990s Iron Fire experienced a small breakthrough in 2000 when their debut album Thunderstorm was released on Noise Records. At the time the so-called true metal or power metal was in vogue in Europe with bands like Hammerfall, Freedom Call, Nocturnal Rites, and Sonata Arctica all coming through. Iron Fire was a typical example of the style with their fast, melodic metal tunes paired with an imagery dominated by fire, swords, warriors, and dragons. Thunderstorm was produced by the Danish producer Tommy Hansen, who was known for the sound on the legendary Helloween albums Keeper of the 7 Keys pt. I and II.
After the release of Thunderstorm, the band experienced some line-up changes with drummer Gunnar Olsen being replaced by Morten Plenge and guitarist Kristian Iversen by Martin Slott. They fell out with the label as their second album, On The Edge, did not prove as successful as their debut. The band, led by Steene, experienced with different sound, which was slightly more progressive with more emphasis on ballads. They did not want to repeat themselves, but ended up getting no support from the label. After this the band more or less fell apart and Steene had to rebuild a new line-up. This led to a break in album activities and a search for a new label. During that period the band produced two demos, while Steene was also working with Force of Evil formed by the two Mercyful Fate guitarists Michael Denner and Hank Shermann.
In March 2006, Iron Fire fought their way back when they released the album, Revenge, under the Napalm Records label. Steene now had Kirk Backarach, who was to become a mainstay, with him on the guitar. Johan Jacob H. Olsen played the other guitar, Jens Berglid the drums, and Martin Lund the bass. Revenge saw a return towards pure metal with less experimentation, and the band began to establish themselves again. Their music was now marked by heavy riffage as a foundation for Steene's high pitched, and slightly sleaze inspired, vocals and catchy melodies. The band adopted a Viking theme in their artwork and in some of their lyrics.
Revenge was followed by Blade of Triumph in 2007. After this effort drummer Jens Berglid left the band listing family issues as the reason.[2] The band had time to find a replacement in Fritz Wagner before embarking on a Germany Tour of Triumph in 2007 with U.D.O and Primal Fear. At this time Martin Steene was also working with former band mates Gunnar Olsen and Martin Slott as well as Iron Fire bass player Martin Lund on their goth rock project Nightlight. Their album, Funeral of Love, was released in the winter 2009.[3]
Steene and Lund were busy as also Iron Fire's fifth album To the Grave was released in the winter 2009. With Johan Jacob H. Olsen out of the band Kirk Backarach was now handling the guitars alone on the album, while different guitarists filled in live. To the Grave marked the end of what can be seen as the band's Viking warrior trilogy.
After an album, Metalmorphosized, released in 2010, which contained reworked versions of left-over material from then bands' first decade, they released the album Voyage of the Damned in 2012. It marked a turn towards sci-fi themed lyrics and artwork while also containing more keyboards (Rune Stiassny of the Danish doom metal band Saturnus), without losing the heaviness. A video clip was shot for the single Leviathan.[4] In this video session guitarist Rune Stiassny can also be seen. He has since been a stable live musician for the band.
Voyage of the Damned would be the last full album to feature drummer Fritz Wagner and Bassist Martin Lund. They both, however, played on the 2014 single A Token of My Hatred (a Virgin Steele cover), released on Crime Records.

2016 saw Iron Fire return to a more stripped down sound with the album Among the Dead where the band explored the zombie genre, the music still carried by heavy riffs paired with Steene's melodic vocals. Also former drummer Gunnar Olsen returned after being out of the band for 16 years. Olsen did, however, play in Steene's goth rock project Nightlight. After the release of Among the Dead the band played shows all over Denmark and a few in Norway, while already starting recordings for the next album.
