Cam Pipes is responsible for "Cleans" and Jamie Hooper is responsible for the "Screams", but both come off as pretty harsh. It only gets metaller from there.įirst, let's start with the vocals since they're the most noticeable thing with the group.
The blades are there, surely, but also found are some spears, a mace, and some shi t I can't even name. It also features, to my count, roughly 37 weapons on the front cover. "Fire up the Blades" is the group's second offering from Roadrunner Records, and features a brand new line-up (besides Pipes and Hooper) and, to the dismay of many, Joey Jordison's debut as a producer. It's funny, surely, but they're not really doing anything different (lyrically) than the Helloweens and Manowars of the world. Cam Pipes and Jamie Hooper are just two dudes that really, really love metal, and they sing about traditional metal things as a reflection of that. And it is, so why the debate? Is there even a debate to be had? If there is, there shouldn't be.ģ Inches of Blood are completely ridiculous, in a good way. Seems pretty standard by metal, ugh, standards.
Their music is, at its core, simple and fun heavy metal songs about marching, Orcs, sinners and daggers.
Metal is, and always has been, sort of an inside joke that only certain people realize (and even fewer find funny), and 3 Inches of Blood take it to the extreme. 3 Inches of Blood are almost too metal for their own good. Are they a joke? Aren't they a joke? Regardless of what you answer, you'll only ever be half right half-wrong if you're a pessimist. Review Summary: Fire Up The Blades delivers an expectedly enjoyable metal ride that embraces the clichés of the genre rather than pushing them away.ģ Inches of Blood's intentions have come under fire since their inception, and rightfully so.
