(Metal Hammer) In Flames have released a short album trailer detailing the work that's gone into making their upcoming 12th album, Battles. The follow-up to 2014's Siren Charms will be released on November 11 via Eleven Seven Music.
In the short clip, vocalist and lyricist Anders Friden explains the meaning behind the album title, and reports it was inspired by emotional conflicts which affect people on a daily basis.
Friden says: "All titles for every album come really late in the process. I write the lyrics and then I gather all the lyrics after we're done and I look at the album as a whole, then try to figure out what the theme is.
"With Battles, we all have our inner struggles from the day we are really young up until the day we die, so this album is about that and something everyone can relate to.
"We all have it - you can never get away from it. It could be inside and outside, between all kinds of people with all kinds of situations." Read more and watch the trailer here.
