The CANNIBAL KINGS are at it again... Sorry OZZY! It's true the CANNIBAL KINGS have re-recorded Black Sabbaths Iron Man with a little twist. After clearing the song with the HARRY FOX Agency with an advanced royalty payment, the KINGS are licensed to sell a limited number of copies.
This song has been so popular in their live set, it was decided to offer it to the public in general. When played live it brings forth-hardy chuckles and even moshing and the flashing of the Devil horns. We're hoping radio listeners will enjoy it as much as club goers have. So here it is give it a spin... This is either a MAXI single or a MINI EP. It includes two other songs, Dirty Ernie and Funky Houston from an earlier CANNIBAL KINGS CD called Lovers Rock and still avaiable on CDBaby, and other sites

The Cannibal Kings open their 3 song sampler with a well produced and played version of the Black Sabbath classic Iron Man. The Cannibal Kings are loud and tight and pick up the energy level a few degrees on the Sabbath original. The enthusiam doesn't stop there though. Their originals Dirty Ernie and Funky Houston fare just as well with funky drum heavy grooves, searing fret board work and ass kicking vocals. After checking out this sample I am sure the Cannibal Kings would be a rowdy live act worth checking out. |
