In Flames: Subterranean


Shortly after the release of Lunar Strain, In Flames started working Subterranean. The band though didn't have a committed singer because Mikael Stanne decided to leave and join Dark Tranquility. The band decided to "borrow" Henke Forss. When Subterranean was released, it helped In Flames to break from the underground scene and sign a deal with the record label, Nuclear Blast. In Flames finally got tired of not having committed members in the band, so Jesper asked Bjorn Gelotte to be the band's official drummer to which he agreed. 6 months later they asked Anders Friden to join the band and become the full tie vocalist. He is the current vocalist today. The band then started to produce their first album under Nuclear Blast; this album is known as The Jester Race. This would be the bands most popular album until their next release, Whoracle.
