anyone heard their new album?
it's quiete good... songs like "Revenge Is A Vulture" and "Axes Of evil" are, i think in the same "league" as iron maiden songs.
really good kinda NWOBHM album.
And the singing on this album is awesome!

Two singers Cam Pipes (what a name!) and Jamie Hooper, dont know who is who, but one of them can flat out scream, one of the
better screamers in years.
Apparently this is probably a one shot band. I dont know much about them, but i did read recently that shortly after they finished recording
the cd that two guys who did the bulk of the writting both left the band.
But its a interesting cd, i like it. not overwhelmed by it, (except for the vocals do stand out for me) But id like to hear more from them in the future.

I heard one of their songs on the Directv metal station last week or so. I really liked it...enough to bid on the cd on ebay (only to have it sniped away). I'll probably pick it up one of these days - it had a cool old school metal vibe to it...without sounding dated.

I think the album Advance and Vanquish is excellent. I couldn't care less what the band looks like. They are killer songwriters and have a uncanny grasp of metal.

Without the odd, campy vocals and lyrics,this would have been a NWOBHM classic. Basically what you have here imo is a cross between Raven,Gamma Ray,Venom,Manowar,Witchery,and Children of Bodom. 3 Inches of Blood win the day with excellent riffs,cunning arrangements,and a sense of irony. Damn,this is so close to genius. If only they weren't trying to be The Darkness' underground counterparts.

I'm not sure what this means.

It means they're trying to be ironic and campy.

Hmmm... I just don't get that from listening to them. Oh well.
