With this killer new album and a tour to back it up, 3IOB will definitely be one of the bands to watch in 2012. Steel Mill caught up with vocalist Cam Pipes and asked what&#8217;s up.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>The title of your new album, Long Live Heavy Metal, might sound like an ultimate clich\u00e9, but hearing songs like \u2018Metal Woman\u2019, \u2018Leather Lord\u2019 or \u2018Dark Messenger\u2019, for example, truly validates it\u2019s use. With this new album you have reunited with producer Terry Murray. How was the work with him?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pretty relaxed overall. We all had a good sense of what this album was gonna be like before we recorded it. We feel like we\u2019re veterans at this point with an established and recognizable sound, so co-producing this record with Terry seemed like a natural step for us.?<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Using of harsh vocals has became a kind of trademark for your music. Where did you get the idea, and was it there already from the start of the band?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t necessarily say the harsh vocals are a trademark for us it\u2019s just something we\u2019ve had the whole time. Maybe it\u2019s just that our vocal styles are more unique. Blending the harsher vocals with traditional metal song writing wasn\u2019t really happening when this band started.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><strong>Bassist Byron Stroud from Fear Factory and Strapping Young Lad is the newest addition to 3IOB line-up. What is the story behind this change?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Byron\u2019s been a friend of the band for many years and has actually filled in on a tour we did a few years ago. For quite a while he\u2019s expressed to us the desire to play a more permanent role in the band, but was involved in other projects. Just as we were finishing up recording, Byron told us he was gonna free himself from his other projects so he could play bass with us.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">I guess having a long beard wasn\u2019t a bad thing when choosing a new guy?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Having a beard has never been a requirement, but it does make a person more masculine and wise. Our drummer, Ash, didn\u2019t have a beard when he joined the band, but he decided to grow one after a while. Although we never suggested he needed to grow it.<\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1084\" src=\"http:\/\/kkdowning.net\/steelmill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/31ob3.jpg\" alt=\"31ob3\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/kkdowning.net\/steelmill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/31ob3.jpg 400w, http:\/\/kkdowning.net\/steelmill\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/31ob3-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><br \/>\n\u00a9 S3IoB<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Your vocals are quite unique, actually pretty close to the classic \u2018Painkiller era\u2019 Rob Halford. Is this vocal sound just a gift, or does it take a lot of practice to hit all those high notes?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m very fortunate I\u2019m able to sing like this. I never had training, its just something I discovered I could do, but had to work on it and teach myself to control it and do it better.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Rob Halford has also given very positive comments about the pipes you got. It must have felt great to receive this kind of feedback?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We heard Rob Halford talk about us on a radio show and speak so highly of us and about my vocals. It fully validated our band\u2019s existence. Coming from Rob, it\u2019s probably the best comments we\u2019ve ever had about us.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Speaking about Judas Priest, what are your favorite Priest albums or songs?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I tend to listen to Priest albums in phases, so its hard to pick an absolute favorite. There will be times when I\u2019m listening to a certain album a lot. During the recording of our latest record, I was listening to a lot of Turbo and Ram It Down, two very underrated albums that shouldn\u2019t be dismissed.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">In 2009 Nike released \u2018Blood Oncore High\u2019 sneakers. How did this unusual collaboration start?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nike\u2019s 6.0 line has some snowboarders and skateboarders that they sponsor. One of their team riders suggested they do a shoe for us and so Nike approached us about collaborating on a shoe design<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">How is the metal scene in Canada nowadays? We have noticed the Anvil\u2019s new rise, but are there many upcoming new bands around?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Canada is very large, but with a small, spread out population, so it\u2019s difficult for us to know what\u2019s going on in most parts of the country. There\u2019s some great bands from our hometown of Vancouver, some you\u2018ve probably heard of and some maybe not.
