IN FLAMES RELEASE VIDEO FOR THRASHING NEW TRACK “THE GREAT DECEIVER” — WATCH
Last weekend, Swedens foremost metal legends IN FLAMES tore down the stage at SLIPKNOT‘s German edition of KNOTFEST.
The band continues to surprise their fans — today, with a new offering of their mind-blowing skills: Gothenburg’s finest release the video for the brand new track “The Great Deceiver,” a crushing piece of modern metal, carving In Flames’ unique mark deep into the current scene’s foundations.
Watch the video here.
“‘The Great Deceiver’ was born out of frustration — basically a reaction to false flags. But since then, it has grown to represent several meanings,” the band shares. “There’s a line that says ‘Bend the truth to fit your opinion,’ and we feel that speaks a lot to the narrative happening online, between people, and nations, etc., today. We are more apart now than ever before yet it’s easier to communicate than in any other time in history.”
The band previously shared “State of Slow Decay.” Watch the video here.
In Flames will embark on a U.S. tour this September. All dates are below. VIP packages are available here. Stay tuned for more touring news, as well.
