Formed in 1966, Iron Butterfly has performed throughout the world. Their mega hit song "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" is a quintessential anthem to the 60's generation.
The Los Angeles music climate of the late sixties and seventies was characterized by the heavy sounds and sentiments that reflected the revolutionary attitudes of the generation. Bursting onto that scene was Iron Butterfly, whose sound not only epitomized the hard attitudes of the youth with its heavy drumming and bass lines, but also embraced more delicate aspirations through its intricate guitar and keyboard overlays.
