In Flames have dropped a surprise covers EP.
'Down, Wicked & No Good' sees the Gothenburg-based metal heavyweights taking on tracks by Depeche Mode, Alice In Chains, Chris Isaak, and Nine In Nails.
Explaining the release, the band said:
“We’ve been fans of Depeche Mode since we were as young as 10. Getting to do our rendition of It’s No Good showed us a different side of the song – it brought new meanings to us. We relate to the lyrics and power of the song so heavily that it almost feels as if we could have written it ourselves. They’re a band that we’ve always looked up to. Growing up, you either listened to Pop, Synths or Rock and even though we are a metal band, Depeche Mode inspired a lot of the electronic elements we use in our music today.”
In Flames kicked off their European co-headline tour with Five Finger Death Punch this week, which will land in the UK in December, hitting Birmingham, Glasgow, Leeds and London. Check below for tickets.
