Icy Steel are a heavy metal band from Sassari, Sardinia, active since 2005 and known for their epic themes, mythological storytelling, and traditional metal sound. Distinct from the unrelated 1980s Verona band of the same name, the Sardinian Icy Steel built their reputation through a steady run of albums beginning with their 2005 demo and 2007 self‑titled debut. Releases such as As the Gods Command (2010), Krònothor (2012), Through the Ashes (2016), Guest on Earth (2018), and The Wait, the Choice and the Bravery (2024) showcase their commitment to heroic, narrative‑driven heavy metal. Their work also includes a contribution to the Omen tribute compilation All Fear the Axeman in 2012. Signed to Wanikiya Record, Icy Steel remain an active force in Italian epic metal.
