In Flames has signed a new deal with Nuclear Blast outside of North America and Scandinavia. Formed in 1990 and considered one of the forefathers of melodic death metal and the purveyors of the Gothenburg sound, the band have gone strong with eleven studio albums released, countless successful tours around the globe and a massively strong fanbase worldwide.
The band is currently working on a release towards a new DVD with details to be released soon.
Said In Flames vocalist Anders Fridén:
“In a way, In Flames and Nuclear Blast share a similar story,”
“Both started in a garage in Europe, both love metal and both have grown a lot bigger over the years. For these reasons, it seemed a natural fit to come back to the place it all started.”
Commented Nuclear Blast CEO Markus Staiger:
“We’re enormously happy that In Flames decided to return and trust in us for the second time – Nuclear Blast is their home again from now on. I remember well how their debut album, Lunar Strain, inspired me back in the days. I was totally fascinated by their great and absolutely unique blend of death metal with delicate melodies,”
“One year later, In Flames signed with us and released eight splendid records over the years, including groundbreaking classics such as Whoracle, Clayman, and Reroute To Remain. In Flames developed all the time, reinvented themselves again and again and enthused fans of various genres with their always innovative sound. We’re looking forward to the common future with Anders, Björn, Peter, and Niclas.”
