3 Inches of Blood and Thunder

While awaiting the new Mastodon video for "Blood and Thunder" (which was rather weak, unfortunately) on The Ball last night, I caught a video by a band called 3 Inches of Blood. Song entitled "Deadly Sinners".

They seem to be coming from the right place - a singer trying to emulate Rob Halford, decent riff-y guitars, and a solo. They do have a second singer who puts me off because his job appears to be shouting, and their album cover implies they sing about Orcs and other Middle Earth silliness, but let's all try to overlook it. Points go to them for being directly influenced from the right school.
