IN FLAMES, who laid down drum tracks for their forthcoming new album back in September, have recently resumed recording of the new album. The Swedish metal heroes posted the following studio report on their official website:

“On Saturday the 27th of September, we travelled to Denmark with two busses filled with studio equipment, and our personal instruments, etc. to start what will be next years IN FLAMES release, featuring Daniel Bergstrand [MESHUGGAH, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD] and Örjan Örnklo [guitarist of MISERY LOVES COMPANY] as producers.

“Everything looks great here: the equipment is hooked up and working well. Five songs are done on rhythm guitar, and on monday we’ll start laying down bass guitar, and then move on to vocals.

“We have two studios set up, one for guitar and electronics and one for bass and vocals, so the recording process is very smooth.

“For relaxation we have a fully equipped spa area with a sauna, a jacuzzi, a pool and a tanning bed, so whenever there is time for getting our acts together, we just go there….

“And to make things even better, we have our personal assistant Magnus with us and our chef (also named Magnus), so we get excellent food each day and some great assistance…”

The band will continue to provide updates on their site and perhaps set up a studio webcam in the near future. Stay tuned future reports.
