In Flames
OK, so... what the hell has been happening lately!?!?! Well, load of things. First of all, I have to say that I am back home in Gran Canaria and I guess I will be staying here for a looong time :P I am happily living my life with my girlfriend, my kids (hehehehe, no... no kids), my family, etc. but I also have to say that I have left some very good friends in Tenerife, and they all are and will be for a lifetime.
So, after being in a couple of live shows in the Ibex 35 (its the name of the place) and listening to some hardcore metal music (Lamb of God) when reuniting with some old friends (None, Ayose & Javi Gragera), I remembered that I had an In Flames album on my iPod, which I went over through this last trip (business purposes, to Valladolid), their last one, 2008's "A Sense of Purpose".
In Flames is a Swedish band from Gothenburg, formed in 1990. The band is considered to be a pioneer and major influence to the melodic death metal music genre. Since the band's conception in 1990, they have received numerous awards and released nine studio albums and one live DVD. The origins are friends who now are members of other Swedish bands such as Dark Tranquility and At The Gates, being Jesper Strömblad the founder of In Flames. Their influences definitely come to Iron Maiden and death metal, but they have added other ingredients to their style, as you would notice if you follow their whole career.
Current members are:
Anders Fridén - vocals
Jesper Strömblad - guitar
Björn Gelotte - guitar
Peter Iwers - bass guitar
Daniel Svensson - drums
I will definitely get hold of some more albums of their discography, especially the ones that bring my attention: "The Jester Race (1995)" and "Whoracle (1998)". Now, I will leave you with their first single of their last album. The song is called, "The Mirror's Truth":
