3 Inches Of Blood<\/a><\/strong> is hitting the stage on the East Coast for the first time in over a decade this September as part of Metal Injection Festival 2024<\/a>. While fans shouldn’t expect new music from 3 Inches Of Blood<\/a><\/strong> at the show, they should expect a ton of classics.<\/p>\n “The main difference between this show and previous ones will be that you’ve never seen us play so many songs off Advance And Vanquish<\/em>,” said 3 Inches Of Blood<\/a><\/strong> drummer Ash Pearson<\/strong>. “We’re gonna be playing a good chunk of that album, and a good bit of Fire Up The Blades<\/em> as well. It’ll be a real energy return.\u201d<\/p>\n 3 Inches Of Blood<\/a><\/strong> vocalist Cam Pipes<\/strong> chimed in, joking that the band might look a little different these days as well.<\/p>\n “Everyone can expect to see a few more gray hairs,” said Pipes<\/strong>. “Ash<\/strong> makes a good point. We have not played songs from Advance And Vanquish<\/em> that much before.”<\/p>\n Pipes<\/strong> later noted that 3 Inches Of Blood<\/a><\/strong>‘s reunion wasn’t planned around Advance And Vanquish<\/em> turning 20, it just happened that way.<\/p>\n “It wasn’t our intention to do an anniversary thing. It was incidental. We just sorta started talking a little while ago like, ‘hey might this be a good idea to get back together. Oh hey, 2024 is the 20th<\/sup> anniversary!’ It’ll be fun to see everyone there at the Metal Injection show, and to come back to NY. We don’t have very many festival appearances lined up, so this’ll be fun.”<\/p>\n As for the reunion shows and the upcoming Metal Injection Festival, Pearson<\/strong> mentioned that everything has been going great so far.<\/p>\n “We allowed ourselves time to prepare for these shows and that totally paid off. Psychologically we wanted to feel like, ‘okay, we’ve had a lot of jams. We sound good, we feel good.’ It’s been revitalizing to oversee the facets of our return in terms of logistics and what we wanna play. Returning to New York will be a very significant event for us.<\/p>\n “It’ll be a hit of nostalgia, but you won’t be seeing a band that’s riding on nostalgia. It’ll be a real high-energy energy return.”<\/p>\n
