God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
Surely He also said, "Let there be dark," for there is dark — dark and heavy and menacing, like the forbidding riffs that came from the electric guitar of Alfred Morris III.
Morris was the founder and only constant member of Iron Man, a doom metal band from suburban Maryland that gained a measure of fame and respect around the world, if not the sort of success and riches many thought it deserved. Morris died on Jan. 10 at age 60 of complications from diabetes. He left behind heavy-hearted heavy metal fans from Bethesda to Bavaria.
