Love this band. Started listening to them when I first heard battle cry under a winter sun. I do miss Jamie hooper screaming though. His live stage presence was amazing. Fire up the blades is still in my rotation on work commutes.
that band is my favorite band of all time bar none, fire up the blades is the backpatch of my old vest. I caught night 1 and 2 in january when they did the 3 shows in vancouver. they in my honest opinion played the best metal shows i've ever seen in my life I don't think i'll ever see a metalshow as good as what they played.their setlist was a greatest hits style set of advance and vanquish and fire up the blades with battles and brother hood, ride darkhorse ride and onward to valhalla rounding them out!
Another awesome interview! Thank you for this! As someone that has been waiting and hoping for 3IOB to come back, this just seems like a great time for them to join a lot of the bands they inspired. Super excited to see them live, as well. I appreciated the call out to UtA, Eternal Champion, Visigoth, who all have some 3IOB DNA in them (and are some of my favorite bands).
I feel like Huntress / Holy Grail (RIP) are in this conversation for me. Love them. Many doing new things not totally in the same space (like Eli's Ignite and Blake's Persekutor). Lately I've been checking out and enjoying Savage Oath (w/ Leeland from Visigoth).
I definitely have a favorite I went to their very last show and their first reunion show. Over the years I've never heard them play Phantom Of The Crimson cloak
they did when I saw them in vancouver back in january!. night one they did onward to valhalla and the next night they did ride darkhorse ride! their setlist was literally a greatest hits set of advance and vanquish and fire up the blades all the best songs off those albums they ripped that shit up full bore!
I don't know the facts but it's my understanding that his vocal chords are totally blown. I loved his voice and he left the tour right before I got to see them. The band was absolutely amazing but I was really hoping to bask in Jamie's vocal chaos.
back when the reunion shows were announced they answered a fan question by saying he wanted to do the reunion but for various reasons was unable to. however he was there at the vancouver shows, night one he was in the crowd banging his head and moshing and night 2 he was watching them from the side of the stage

Glad you enjoyed it!! Hope you get to see them live as well! What other 3iob inspired bands do you love?

They need to play songs off of Sect of the white worm!

Is there a chance that Jamie Hooper will return? He was great and a founding member
