J. Bannon, Dwid Hellion, and Stephen Kasner are "Irons".
"Irons" are a collaborative effort of these three artistic visionaries. A collective effort to create apocalyptic, non-linear music from a primal fine art based mindset.
Idiom(s): Nautical. Lying head to the wind and unable to turn either way.
Idiom(s): Irons in the fire. An undertaking or project in progress: has many irons in the fire this year.
The blade of a carpenter's plane. Slang; a pistol. A harpoon.
