History
Loincloth was formed in 2000 by two musicians from Raleigh, Steve Shelton and Cary Rowells, and two from Richmond, Pen Rollings and Tannon Penland. Shelton and Rowells had previously played in Confessor, and Rollings was a member of Breadwinner. The group recorded a four-track demo in 2003 and released a 7" record, "Church Burntings"/"New Jersey", but did not release a full-length until 2012, when Iron Balls of Steel was released on Southern Lord Records. Penland cites the group's long-distance status (Raleigh and Richmond are approximately a three-hour drive away from each other) as one factor in the album's long gestation period.
