![]() ![]() ![]() We feel like sometimes a song tends to drag when it’s four minutes or longer. Hopefully the new one will be more successful than was.ī: One of the cool things about was the fact that you were able to write such a short, compact album at only 30 minutes yet still make it interesting.īutler: There’s probably one song on there that breaks four minutes. There are a lot of fans that cling more to Common Man’s Collapse than and vice-versa, but overall, I think it’s a pretty good album and was successful. How did you see the album’s success helping in terms of your development?īutler: It went really well. It’s definitely hard.ī: Coming out of, you were able to chart really well with it and do some extensive touring. We started yesterday, so we’re getting everything together.ī: How much time are you allotted?ī: With four albums worth of material to condense, what are you trying to work in?īutler: We’ve been playing a new song from our album coming out, then the rest has been a mix between and The Common Man’s Collapse, trying to play as many songs as we can to try and keep people happy. I’ve been listening to In Flames for a long time, so it’s definitely an awesome tour to be on.

It should also deal a massive blow to the band’s ill-founded reputation as being part of the current wave of “djent” bands. Based on the success and bristling death metal elements heard on 2008’s The Common Man’s Collapse and 2010’s , Eclipse promises to be an even greater boundary-pusher and should add to the growing debate over the band’s DM pedigree. Currently on the road with In Flames and Trivium, also worth mentioning is the band’s fourth album Eclipse, which will drop on February 28. Probably the band on Sumerian Records that gets the most critical leeway (next to The Faceless), Chicago’s Veil of Maya have a full slate in front of them for the year’s first half. ![]()
