Daily Heavy: In Flames - I'm The Highway

In Flames are one of my favorite metal bands.

I love melodic death metal, and along with At The Gates, In Flames produce some of the best work of this genre.

This song comes from their 2008 album, A Sense Of Purpose, and is one of the catchier tunes on it.

It kicks off with some nicely harmonized guitars before the full band comes in.

The verse riffs are fairly simple but effective and the chorus riffs get a nice kick from some rapid drumming in the background.

The bridge section has a nice heavy guitar riff behind it, and the solos are melodic and very tasteful - they drop into the song very seamlessly.

Vocalist Anders Fridén barks out his lyrics, which adds a nice percussive attack over the fairly groovy and bouncy guitar riffs.
