I saw these guys when they opened for Metallica in 2008 (I think that was the year) and they kicked ass.

[@noname-in3hi]

thank you american dad! just my kind of tune! :) kind of reminds me of the band sleep.. love it.

[@thedeathestmetal]

Just yesterday, I was talking to a friend o' mine and I was playing what I've jotted down so far on the guitar... He told me "I wish you could play Iron Swan by The Sword" and I replied with "I can look it up... hold on" So i did, i brought up youtube, then brought up a tab site, and while bringing up the site, i found this band and song to be pretty friggin awsome... Im now learning how to play this, and it IS fun!!

[@coreymcdaniel2759]

Instrumentally this is my favorite sword song so far. It really hits you in the mouth and I love it.

[@Gonko100]

like that. straight to the point, brillant sound, good riffs, nice vocals.

[@AFSil80]

Jocko increased the popularity of this song by 8000%

[@Svenironhelm]

[@Elgar337]

This is the song Jocko's alarm clock wakes up to.

[@Talking-Monkey]

:50 A good husband will get up before this time. But a GREAT wife would get up with you at this time in the song and say how badass it is and then fall back asleep.

[@OutdoorShellback]

role call. Jocko said this is where morning muster is at!

[@ZeesMMA]

It's 4:15am and you hear this song... Good!

LMAO

[@shocknawe14]

Jocko: Navy Seal, BJJ Black Belt, English major, Hardcore aficionado and certified bad-ass with an awesome podcast. Context: He mentioned this song as an ideal ringtone for those who want to wake up early but worry about waking their spouses up. "it starts off slow... but you better wake up-- cause it's coming!"

[@darc1027]

Lol awesome that's why I am here too lol

Holy shit, Jocko Willink digs this sort of music? Hot damn!

[@owena.7771]

Iron ships on seas of blood Black winds fill their silver sails Iron Swan rises high above In crimson twilight through the earthly veil Legions of vermin surround me Malefic taint in their eyes Madness gives sway to delusion In defense of a fortress of lies The Iron Swan floats amidst the reeds It's shadow long upon the water It gives a cry for what can never be Which draws the eyes of Odin's daughters Scion of storms, aegis of rime I call on the powers of old Unleash your vengeance to punish the crimes Of those who I name as my foes

[@frankbingabing9875]

90% of people here came from Jocko Willink's video.

[@nickp3949]

I’ve loved this song (and this band) for like 15 years and I’m happy they’re getting more recognition from Jocko. Check out “The Black River”, “To Take the Black”, and “Freya” as well. Love these guys.

I remember seeing these guys open for Metallica at the citizens bank Arena in 08. They played this song, and it was fucking sick.

this is the best sword song in my opinion, it has to be the best to headbang to that's for sure

[@Jhart811]

Yup

[@cloudparter]

Dragonaut111 True. Lament for the Aurochs has the best opening though. I wish the entire song sounded like the intro. That's why Iron Swan will always be my #1 The Sword joint.
