In Flames release webisode #5: The band speaks about their inspiration
On November 11th, the flames grow higher and the new album »Battles« will see the light of day. Sweden's metal institution IN FLAMES are back with their 12th studio release and also deliver a new webisode today. In this clip, the band explore the questions where their inspiration comes from and if they prefer to write at home or directly on tour (and what role coffee plays in that process!). In addition, they explain the choice of their title »Battles«, how much effort they put into a song before it's finished and why people should listen to the album from beginning to the end.

Recorded in Los Angeles, the album sees the band taking a new approach while staying true to their vision and encompassing their unique, signature sound. IN FLAMES brought in Grammy-nominated producer Howard Benson (PAPA ROACH, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE) as a collaborator on »Battles«, creating an album that speaks to all IN FLAMES fans alike.
