The wait is over! UK-based doom heavyweights IRONRAT are back and ready to dominate the heavy music scene once again. The band has revealed the full details of their highly anticipated new album, “Beneath It All,” set for release in February 28th 2025 via Argonauta Records. Alongside the announcement, IRONRAT has dropped a thunderous new single and an accompanying video, offering fans an electrifying first glimpse of what’s to come:

Drawing inspiration from iconic bands such as Red Fang, Alice In Chains, Corrosion of Conformity and Mastodon, IRONRAT has crafted a sound that blends the raw grit of sludge and doom with the emotive edge of grunge. Their forthcoming record marks a triumphant return nearly a decade after their acclaimed debut, “Monument,” in 2015.

The journey to “Beneath It All” wasn’t without challenges. The band weathered a temporary setback with the departure of their vocalist, Chris, due to health reasons. However, instead of faltering, IRONRAT used this time to regroup, reforge and emerge stronger than ever with a revitalized lineup:

Vocals & Guitar: Martin Wiseman (Psychlona, Wolves In Winter)

Guitar: Wayne Hustler (Wolves In Winter, ex-Monolith Cult)

Bass: Stuart Hillman

Fans of the band will know IRONRAT hasn’t been idle during their studio hiatus. Their explosive live performances alongside heavyweights like Orange Goblin, Phil Campbell and Psychlona have kept their name firmly etched in the heavy music circuit. Appearances at prestigious festivals like Bloodstock, SOPHIE Fest, and Manor Fest have further cemented their reputation as one of the UK’s premier doom acts.

The upcoming album, recorded at the renowned Foel Studio and produced by Chris Fielding of Conan fame, is a testament to IRONRAT’s sonic evolution. Packed with massive riffs, crushing tones, and a newfound melodic depth in the vocals, “Beneath It All” showcases the band’s growth while staying true to their core sound.

Stay tuned for the full release of “Beneath It All” this February, and in the meantime, dive into the new single and video—a powerful preview of the epic soundscapes that await.

IRONRAT is back. Heavier, bolder and more unstoppable than ever.
