3 Inches Of Blood Sets Release Date For Fire Up The Blades; Band Joins Ozzfest 2007

Vancouver, BC-based traditional heavy metallers 3 INCHES OF BLOOD has completed work on their much anticipated new album entitled "Fire Up The Blades." A June 26th release date via Roadrunner Records has been set and will be the follow-up to 2004's heralded "Advance and Vanquish" album.

Produced by Joey Jordison (Slikpnot) and recorded at Vancouver's legendary Armoury Studios (AC/DC, KISS) and Mushroom Studios (Queensr˙che), "Fire Up the Blades" is a darker and more aggressive offering than their previous works and features the duelling vocal attack of Cam Pipes and Jamie Hooper.
