3 INCHES OF BLOOD To Film Hometown Shows For Upcoming DVD

April 29, 2010

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada traditional metallers 3 INCHES OF BLOOD will film their May 21 and May 22 hometown shows for their first-ever concert DVD.

Commented vocalist Cam Pipes: "May 21 and 22 will surely be a couple of the most monumental days in the history of 3 INCHES OF BLOOD. Not only are we playing back-to-back shows in our hometown at one the most promising new venues Vancouver has seen in a long time, but we will be filming both shows for a future live DVD release.

"The excitement amongst the band is feverish. We relish the opportunity to play in front of a home crowd because it reminds us who supported us in the early stages.

"To make these shows even more special, we're going to play different sets on each night.

"We hope everyone will remember these shows for years to come. We will certainly do our best to make them fun and memorable."

3 INCHES OF BLOOD is preparing for the next big North American touring onslaught, which kicks off tonight with a massive run across Canada with GOATWHORE. This leads them directly into the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, where they will perform alongside such major acts as KORN, ROB ZOMBIE, LAMB OF GOD and HATEBREED. The band will also play a series of "off" dates with LAMB OF GOD and HATEBREED.

3 INCHES OF BLOOD recently teamed up with acclaimed director Rick Podd ("The Watcher", "Hellraiser") to film a video for the song "Silent Killer". The track comes off the band's latest album, "Here Waits Thy Doom", which will be reissued on June 29 as a Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival edition with four exclusive new tracks along with a bonus DVD featuring the video for "Battles and Brotherhood", 3 INCHES OF BLOOD's performance on Fuel TV and more.

Rick Podd previously worked with 3 INCHES OF BLOOD on the "Battles and Brotherhood" video, which can be viewed below.
