Three years after the release of their latest studio album Heretic Tongue, modern hard rock act WUCAN returns with new single and video “Irons in the Fire”.
In good old WUCAN fashion, musically, the band is moving forward with heavy beats, loud guitars, and epic vocals, ensuring that no rock fan can stand still. The new single is an undeniable headbanger that still holds surprises for longtime fans and leaves no wishes unfulfilled in terms of sound diversity. All in all, a song for all music lovers and, as always, with a touch of surprise that makes WUCAN songs… WUCAN songs.
Singer Francis Tobolsky comments:
“I wrote ‘Irons in the Fire’ as a little toast to all those who refuse to be beaten down by the adversities of the world and keep pushing forward,”
Francis continues:
“How does the saying go? ‘Diamonds are made under pressure?’ It sometimes feels like that when you pursue a goal and have to overcome obstacles and hurdles to fulfill your dream. Every setback shapes us, every defeat carries a chance within it, and it takes iron will and a good dose of passion to withstand this pressure,”
“‘Irons in the Fire’ was the first song we wrote for our upcoming album. We recorded it in 2024 with our homeboy Max Power in a studio in Berlin. After Heretic Tongues, we floated through jams for a while and were still unsure where the journey with the new album should go. When Tim brought this riff to a rehearsal, we let ourselves be carried away by it. At a certain point, one part flowed organically into the next. It felt really good when the song was finished and already hinted at the direction the new album would take.”

The band says:
“For the video shoot, we rented an old glass factory in Weißwasser, DE and an old brewery in Medingen near Dresden, DE, capturing the cold and raw atmosphere that these professions bring with them”
“In the glass factory, we shot the performance scenes with cold hands in the shadow of the large old machines,” the band furthers. “In Medingen, we went all out and literally smashed TVs, dishes, tables, and even a toilet. The images and scenes that emerged show the fun we had! The video was once again produced by Armin from Massengrab Records, to whom we have entrusted our projects since Heretic Tongues. This time, his colleague Hans and photographer Edgar Kohn were also involved. We would like to thank Hafenstube Telux and the Ostpol team for providing the filming locations. Also, thanks to Massengrab Records, Ravierfilms, and Edgar Kohn for the production.”
