Guitarist Magnus Karlsson describes the new single: “Above It All” is probably my favourite song of the Iron Will album, with beautiful lyrics by Jane E Gillard. The chorus is a blend of dual melodies soaring together. And of course, with Ronnie singing his heart out and Mike’s awesome groove it really became something special we can be proud of and hope that you will enjoy! May it move you, inspire you, and lift you… above it all!”

Karlsson also expresses his excitement for the release:
“It’s pure fire creating metal with legends like Ronnie and Mike! These tracks hit hard with unrelenting power, but there’s this raw, emotional edge woven into the heaviness that I can’t get enough of. Heavy, honest, and straight from the soul—that’s the vibe we’re bringing”.

“As usual, I just loved singing over Magnus/The Ferrymen songs!! As a singer there is nothing better to work on melodies and lyrics that inspire your performance, but also in real life day by day, and that’s something I strongly believe the fans of the band like the most of this project. 
Can’t wait for everybody to listen what, once again, is a strong melodic yet heavy album that I am very proud of”, adds vocalist Ronnie Romero.

“Iron Will” Tracklist:

1.    Choke Hold
2.    Mother Unholy
3.    Iron Will
4.    Above It All
5.    Adrenaline
6.    Darkest Storm
7.    Dreams And Destiny
8.    Dust To Dust
9.    The Darkness That Divides
10.    Mind Games
11.    You’re The Joker

The Ferrymen was formed by masterful Swedish guitarist/songwriter/producer Magnus Karlsson (Primal Fear, Magnus Karlsson’s Free Fall), awesome vocalist Ronnie Romero (Lords of Black, Sunstorm, Rainow), and thunderous drummer Mike Terrana (Rage, Axel Rudi Pell, etc.), and have become an established name amongst European melodic metal fans after their first three successful albums. Fans should now prepare themselves for album four!

On “Iron Will”, once again, the band take the classic heavy metal sound and combine it with heavier, updated songwriting textures and arrangements. “Iron Will” is certainly a huge shot of adrenaline for all lovers of melodic heavy metal!

Musically, you can expect as usual a very heavy, melodic metal that fuses the songwriting and epic structures of the great Karlsson, who is known for his work with Primal Fear, Allen/Lande, and more, with the huge, powerful vocal approach of Romero, and the driving, explosive drumming of Terrana.

From the high emotional intro of the opening track “Choke Hold”, ready to explode into a powerful melodic metal track, through songs like “Mother Unholy”, “Adrenaline” and the latest track “You’re The Joker”, the album showcases the amazing talent of these three great musicians!

With, once again, stunning artwork courtesy of Stan W. Decker, The Ferrymen’s latest album, “Iron Will”, will take the metal world by storm in 2025!

About the track, vocalist Ronnie Romero says: “The most epic song of the album! Just loved how Magnus is capable to create such an atmosphere for a song. Loved to sing in this epic and yet heavy tune!! I believe The Ferrymen fans are going to love this one!!”

Guitarist Magnus Karlsson adds: “I love to write and produce epic stuff and this song is a really good example of that! The great lyrics are written by Jane Gillard and are about a nun who was pure of heart, but her heart was turned black by the hypocrisy of the people in the order around her, and ultimately, she became evil. Where there is light there, must also be dark”.
