Sent their link over to my son, he already knew about and likes them. Sounded good to me too.
In drove this drunken madman and stopped on a dime! Unfortunately the dime was in Mr. Rococo's pocket!

Interesting. Will take a listen. Just bought their album on half.com for $5.
Gimme five, I'm still alive!
Ain't no luck, I learned to duck!
Iron Maiden wannabees
Every man dies. Not every man lives.
You don’t stop playing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop playing.
Best ever? Yeah.... no....
A better singer than Halford? Nope.
Musicianship like Dream Theater? Nope.
Have no idea about their live show but I'm going to guess it's nothing close to Iron Maiden.
A fun metal band? Sure. But Slayer has chunks of bands like this in their stool.
Maaaaiiiiiden!!!!
i'll give you best new rock...
WOLFMOTHER.
wow.

At the risk of turning this post into a name-dropping metal-forum "Band X is way more brootal than Band Y, those guys are ghey fagues with aids" band bashing extravaganza, here are my thoughts.
Yes, 3IOB does play some catchy power metal and they're popular with the hardcore kids, but their music is more derivative than most and frankly not that good compared to other bands.
It's branded pop-metal designed to sell albums, devoid of any real value or originality. You like it, good for you, music taste is a very personal thing. However, you don't have to venture very far into the genre to find bands that are much better/original/catchy than Three Inches of Blood—these guys just have a better marketing plan.
Also, I love how non-metal people trot out Maiden as a comparison everytime they hear metal with clean vocals. My folks know about Maiden, mentioning them does nothing to add to the conversation or your credibility. They're not even the same type of metal.
all i gotta say is, candlemass
You sound like a metal nerd with a beef against 3IOB. I dunno, I guess I thought their nautical trilogy was pretty original, but you'd probably say it was a ripoff of Maiden's "Rime of the Ancient Mariner", which of course is a ripoff of Coleridge's poem. And BTW, Coleridge got more than likely got his birds wrong; he should have said "petrel" when he said "albatross".
Why can't you use Maiden as a comparison? They are probably the 3rd most influential metal band out there after Sabbath and Priest. History doesn't lie. Read this book http://www.popmatters.com/books/revi...he-beast.shtml and learn your proper metal history.
Anyways, I'm back to my valueless and unoriginal tastes.

Heavy Metal is STILL the last bastion of the closeted homosexual.
There are definitely more metal bands out there, but these guys rule. Thinking of going to see them once again in Whistler on Jan 15th.
