3 INCHES OF BLOOD is currently recording its second Roadrunner album for a spring 2007 release. The as-yet-untitled follow-up to "Advance and Vanquish" is being produced by SLIPKNOT drummer Joey Jordison. "Working with Joey has been awesome so far," says singer/screamer Jamie Hopper. "He's made a seamless transition onto the 3 INCHES OF BLOOD drinking team and is pushing us harder than ever before. We're coming up with some killer stuff, which we can't wait for everyone to hear." Says Jordison, "I've been into 3IOB since 'Battle Cry Under a Winter's Sun'. I've wanted to work with them since. Unfortunately, timing didn't work out, but in the spring of 2006, timing was right. The new lineup is lethal, stellar musicians. We honed in on every beat riff and vocal to make this a legendary recording. The musical equivalent to a beheading."
Darker, tighter and more dangerous than their debut, the new album features songs such as "Night Marauders", "Goatrider’s Horde", "Assassins of the Light" and "Black Spire". With those songtitles, the album is sure to be full of vivid imagery, masterful guitar acrobatics and the soaring vocals of Cam Pipes and Jamie Hooper that 3 INCHES OF BLOOD is known for. In January, the band will take to the road with CRADLE OF FILTH and unleash the new material to their eagerly awaiting fans.
Since the release of "Advance & Vanquish", 3 INCHES OF BLOOD have been plundering cities all around the world on tours with AVENGED SEVENFOLD, TRIVIUM, CHIMAIRA, EXODUS and others. The band most recently headlined a North American tour with EARLY MAN and BAD WIZARD in support. On October 21, the members of 3 INCHES OF BLOOD lived out their dreams by opening up for legendary metal band IRON MAIDEN at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Los Angeles, CA.
On "Advance and Vanquish", 3 INCHES OF BLOOD brought back the sound of twin lead guitars, thundering bass and vocals that can break glass. Songs like "Destroy the Orcs" and "Axes of Evil", touched on such contemporary subjects as pirates, battlefields and dragons. The upcoming CD will be full of similar tales, but with two new members — drummer Alexie Rodriquez and bassist Nick Cates — fans and critics should prepare for some serious musicianship that will take the band to the next level.
3 INCHES OF BLOOD is Cam Pipes (vocals),Jamie Hooper (vocals),Justin Hagberg (guitar),Shane Clark (guitar),Nick Cates (bass) and Alexei Rodriquez (drums).
