In Flames Live in Sweden ~Sounds from the Heart of Gothenburg [2CD] Japan CD

Product Description
Content Introduction: In Flames, one of the most important bands in the Swedish melodic death metal scene! Their ultimate live album, "Sounds from the Heart of Gothenburg," which has captivated their Gothenburg fans, is now on sale! Featuring 20 hand-picked tracks from their debut album to their latest release, symbolizing the band's history! Formed in 1990, In Flames, alongside At the Gates and Dirk Tranquility, is one of the three pioneers that spread "melodic death metal" on a global scale. They are also one of Sweden's most important bands that created the "Gothenburg sound," and have had a tremendous influence on metal bands around the world, especially metalcore bands. While the band has gradually shifted its musical style from aggressive melodic death metal to emotional alternative metal, they have released 11 studio albums to date and continue to build a strong fan base while energetically touring the world. This latest release from In Flames for their fans features 20 hand-picked tracks from their debut album 'Lunar Strain' (1994) to their latest album 'Siren Charms' (2014), all performed in a high-energy live format. The raw, visceral atmosphere of the enthusiastic audience gathered at the 14,000-capacity Scandinaviam Arena in Gothenburg, Sweden, is vividly captured in this package. The band members for this performance were Anders Frid?n (Vocals), Bjorn Gelotte (Guitar), Peter Iwers (Bass), Niclas Engelin (Guitar), and Daniel Svensson (Drums). However, Daniel Svensson left the band last year. It seems the reason is that he wants to prioritize spending time with his family, his wife and three daughters, who are the most important people in his life. Incidentally, the band has not yet announced a new drummer to replace Daniel. Another point to note is that this album, "Sounds from the Heart of Gothenburg," will once again be released by the prestigious German label Nuclear Blast. The two groups had a long working relationship, from their second album "The Jester Race" (1996) to their ninth album "A Sense of Purpose" (2008), but they drifted apart for a time. However, frontman Anders says, "In Flames and Nuclear Blast have similar histories. We both started our careers in small garages with a strong love for metal, and over the years we have grown into big names," suggesting that they have now rekindled their strong relationship. Furthermore, the band moved management last year to 10th Street Entertainment, the same agency as M?tley Cr?e, Five Finger Death Punch, and All That Remains, and is expected to make even greater strides. This release, coming amidst this unprecedented momentum, will undoubtedly have a positive influence on their 12th studio album, which is rumored to be completed later this year. In addition, the band has been confirmed to perform at KNOT FEST JAPAN 2016 in November, making this the perfect preparatory item for Japanese fans.
