<p><meta charset="utf-8"><span data-mce-fragment="1">Released in 2009, Iron Age’s </span><i data-stringify-type="italic" data-mce-fragment="1">The Sleeping Eye</i><span data-mce-fragment="1"> is a defining album in 2000s crossover thrash and hardcore. Hailing from Texas, the band crafted a sound that fused the raw intensity of thrash metal, the grit of hardcore punk, and the grandeur of classic heavy metal. While taking cues from hardcore legends like Leeway and Cro-Mags, Iron Age elevated their sound with inspiration from Bay Area thrash titans like Death Angel and Testament. The result is a powerful, genre-defying mix of aggression and atmosphere that remains as thrilling today as when it first dropped.</span></p>
