Forged in Flame is a heavy metal/rock band formed in Cleveland, Ohio, United States, in 2007. The band has often been described as stoner rock.[1] The band's signature is a prog-doom-metal with a vintage Sabbath chaser.[2] The band has self-released a four song EP “Forged In Flame” which has sold close to 1,000 copies, and a vinyl 7” split "Forged In Ohio" with The Ohio Sky. More recently they contributed exclusive song “The Underground” for Australian label Planet Fuzz Record’s compilation Cowbells and Cobwebs.[2] The band has been compared to acts such as Corrosion of Conformity, the Cult and Life of Agony.[3] The band is not currently signed to any label.[4]
