Interviews
A chat with Björn Gelotte about In Flames’ amazing year in 2022, their new album ‘Foregone’ and how everyone seem to link it to a different stage of their sound with the way they put the mixing and production together this time around. We also touch on his personal writing process and how incredible it is to him to be able to have their music transcend into other forms of art like the upcoming graphic novel!
We had a chat with Niclas about touring, the changes in their music and bands from their homecountry.

In Flames crammed the Jäähalli arena in Helsinki full with an energetic, pulsating crowd with the help of country mates At The Gates, Imminence and Orbit Culture, giving the people a taste of both the old and the new in Swedish metal!

The last Day of Sauna Open Air 2022 was probably the best day of this year’s edition. With In Flames as headliner, but also other great bands like Reckless Love, Hardcore Superstar, Skid Row and Danko Jones. RH Entertainment and Master Events offered us an overall really nice festival.
The debut show of Cyhra was quite the event and support bands Eyes Wide Open & Ember Falls made it even more interesting!
