3 INCHES OF BLOOD To Work On New Music: 'We're Gonna Take Our Time With It'
Asked if 3 INCHES OF BLOOD is still signed to Roadrunner, Shane said: "No… After 'Fire Up The Blades' — so this is, I wanna say, 2008 — they wanted to re-negotiate our contract into a deal we were not into at all. Basically, long story short, we asked them, like, 'If we don't take this new contract, what's the deal?' They're, like, 'Well, we're gonna have to drop you.' And we were, like, 'Fucking right. Let's say no. Then we'll get dropped.' And then we had a really successful year being label-less. We toured Europe with EXODUS that year and had a really good, lucrative year. And then we got signed to Century Media. Century Media was really good, and we're technically still on Century Media. So whatever we decide to do, they have the option to release it for us."
As for how 3 INCHES OF BLOOD is planning on making new music available, Shane said: "We don't know if we're gonna do an album or a couple of singles. The landscape's different… It's super up in the air. I'm 50 years old, so I remember when you're budgeted for one CD every two weeks on a paycheck, and it's, like, you listen to the whole damn thing, even if you don't really like it. I don't know a whole lot of young people, but I'm not convinced that people listen to the back end of a record anymore — unless you're a diehard. If it's OBITUARY or — name your favorite band here — of course I'm gonna listen to the whole damn thing. But when you're garnering new fans, the musical landscape, how people consume music, it's singles. It's kind of back to the '50s. I think it's THE BEATLES that started releasing [full-length] records."
3 INCHES OF BLOOD effectively called it quits in 2015 after a five-album run. Nearly a decade later, the band played a hometown show in January 2024 as the first part of its "full-circle return." Additional reunion shows were later announced to celebrate the 20th anniversary of 3 INCHES OF BLOOD's second album, "Advance And Vanquish".
3 INCHES OF BLOOD announced its split in June 2015, sixteen years after the band's formation, writing in a social media statement: "Naturally, people will have questions as to why we have collectively made this decision. While our reasons are personal, just know we are all still good friends, but it is just time to move on."
Prior to January 2024, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD's last performance took place on November 7, 2015 at the Commodore Ballroom.
Formed in 1999, 3 INCHES OF BLOOD released five studio albums — 2002's "Battlecry Under A Wintersun", 2004's "Advance And Vanquish", 2007's "Fire Up The Blades", 2009's "Here Waits Thy Doom" and 2012's "Long Live Heavy Metal". They also issued three EPs — 2001's "Sect Of The White Worm", 2007's "Trial Of Champions" and 2011's "Anthems For The Victorious".
