Survival in the Independent Music Scene is not easy. Iron Man Records has had to cultivate a variety of survival skills in the challenging landscape of independent music. Changing habits post-COVID, the cost of living crisis, Brexit, the cost of touring, fuel prices, and the impact of streaming services have significantly affected the environment in which musicians operate. In an era where listeners are bombarded with music choices, pursuing a career in music has become unsustainable for many. Simply earning enough to cover basic operating expenses feels like a mad dream for most artists. “Get in on the hustle or be a bum” - Charles Bukowski I would like to extend…

Ford Timelord by Flinton Chalk and The Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures.

7 February 2023Mark

These prints are available only to Patrons. TC Lethbridge’s claims regarding the existence of Ancient Hill Figures on Wandlebury Hill in Cambridgeshire caused significant controversy within the archaeological community, with most archaeologists believing that Lethbridge had erroneously misidentified a natural feature. Lethbridge’s methodology and theories were widely deemed unorthodox, and in turn he became increasingly critical of…

Police Bastard – Confined (Vinyl) distributed by Cargo Records

25 May 2021Mark

Confined by Police Bastard “Thought-provoking monologues and confrontational lyrics bring you on a cold, doom-laden journey of perpetual war, psychological mind control and disillusionment.” Only 500 copies pressed on Black Vinyl. A big thank you to all Iron Man Records Patrons who helped make this possible. Cover Art by Mark “skinny” Orton “CVLT Nation’s Top 6 Crust Albums: Police Bastard are pretty infamous at this stage, so no need for any introductions with band member links to Doom, Sore Throat, Cain, Rainbow Grave, Filthkick, Sensa Yuma etc. Their album ‘Confined’ sticks to their cynical view of the world mixed with innovative guitar textures and driving industrial intensity. Thought-provoking monologues and confrontational…

Ford Timelord returns to work on The Project to Uncover Ancient Hill Figures – 111 Lithographic Prints by Flinton Chalk

24 November 2020Mark
