A friend has been asking me to go see In Flames with her at the Helsinki Ice Arena on the 16th of November. I listen to a lot of that type of heavier music but I’m not too familiar with the band itself, so I’m not sure what to do. I heard about the band in 2009 when a Finnish exchange friend introduced me with a couple of their songs and I remember listening to them non-stop for a while. I guess In Flames is categorized into death metal or heavy metal but their music is a lot more melodic compared to many others. I still have those songs ‘Alias’ and ‘Come Clarity’ in my playlists and even though I still like them I’ve been too lazy to find out more about their production.
I know the feeling that you get when you just absolutely love a band and get to see it playing live - it’s something unbelievably awesome! If it was HIM, I would have already bought the tickets!! ;) But now I’m not sure if I want to go or not. What if I realize there and then that meh, I don’t like this, and I stand in the crowd and everybody else except for me is just rocking their ass off? :D
This friend just told me that she’s gonna compile a Spotify playlist for us, ‘all time greatest of In Flames’, so that we can learn the lyrics by heart, buy tickets to the concert and scream our hearts out there :D Haha, I got all excited and had to google their latest album, and it seems that I already found something new that I liked! Maybe I should just take the chance and go..? ;) hehe.
