3 INCHES OF BLOOD will release their fifth studio album, Long Live Heavy Metal, on March 27th in North America via Century Media Records. The album will be released in Europe on March 26th, and in Australia and New Zealand on March 30th. Keeping true to their core and bringing their forthcoming album title to life, fans can expect a blast of pure metal assured to leave no face un-melted.
A photo gallery documenting the recording sessions, courtesy of photographer Aaron Aubrey, is available at this location.
For Long Live Heavy Metal, 3 Inches Of Blood reunited with producer and engineer Terry "Sho" Murray (CITY OF FIRE, EXHIBITIONISTS), who worked with the band on their 7", 'Anthems For The Victorious'.
"When a band is releasing a new record, they often speak about it being their most important work or best album to date. Regardless of how clichéd either statement may sound, I think we would say both apply to this album," explains vocalist Cam Pipes. "All of us have a special feeling about this one. We're more committed than ever to the cause of real, honest, no bullshit heavy metal. No trends, no fucking around!"
Metal Alliance Tour 2012 will run from March 15th - April 21st, featuring DEVILDRIVER, THE FACELESS, DYING FETUS, JOB FOR A COWBOY, 3 Inches Of Blood and IMPENDING DOOM.
