About In Vain:
Hailing from Kristiansand, Norway, In Vain has been a pioneering force in Norwegian progressive extreme metal since 2003. Founded by guitarist Johnar Haaland and vocalist Andreas Frigstad, the band’s melodic extreme metal sound, set them apart early on.
In 2007, In Vain released their first full-length album, “The Latter Rain“, a collaborative effort with nearly 20 guest musicians, showcasing their prowess in diverse, progressive arrangements. Subsequent albums like “Mantra“ (2010) and “Ænigma“ (2013) continued to push musical boundaries.
“Currents“, a double-edition masterpiece exploring contemporary societal shifts was then released in 2018. Declared “Album of the Year“ and garnered perfect scores from various publications worldwide, including 10/10 ratings from Metal Temple (UK), Metal Only (GER), and (GER) to name a few.
With a rich history of live performances, including European tours with Solefald, Borknagar, Vreid and Keep of Kalessin. In Vain remains a powerhouse in extreme metal, captivating audiences with their dynamic compositions, and their reputation as a force in progressive extreme metal is firmly established. The band’s ability to seamlessly blend progressive drive, playfulness, touching vocals, and metallic hardness sets them apart, as attested by reviews such as “In Vain proves once again that they are masters of their art...” - Cultur Addict (FR)
In Vain stands as a testament to the enduring innovation within progressive metal, shaping the future of the genre. Their upcoming album “Solemn” is set to release in 2024.
Lyrics:
Towering clouds over flowering fields
The dawn of a dark season
Unleashed is all that light conceals
Challenging sense and reason
The path ahead is steep and narrow
Trying to find a way
Despair pierces my skin, heart and marrow
Turmoil blights the day
The path ahead is steep and narrow
Trying to find a way
Despair builds up in me
The night is drawing closer
The walls are caving in
Sinking into the unknown
Panic spreads, asphyxiating
It’s the season of unrest
Will this be my requiem?
Mortality exposed
Vulnerability imposed
Normality foreclosed
I close my eyes and bask in flowering fields
Dismiss the pain and ignore what’s real
Reject reality, construct my own
Burn everything to the fucking ground
The night is drawing closer
The walls are caving in
Sinking into the unknown
Panic spreads, asphyxiating
It’s the season of unrest
Darkness threatens to unfold
Fertile fields turned to barren land
In an instant the future looks bleak
Mighty mountains crushed to sand
Enough to make the strong heart weak
Will I hear his voice, will he know my face?
Is it far what seemed so near?
No way out of this ghastly maze
Desolation and despair
The night is drawing closer
The walls are caving in
Sinking into the unknown
Panic spreads, asphyxiating
Here’s the season of unrest
Has my time come?
Tears won’t arise
Oppress my weary eyes
