TRIVIUM commented: "We're beyond stoked to be joining forces with our longtime friends IN FLAMES once again for another legendary run across Europe and the UK. With PALEFACE SWISS and VOLA joining us, this is going to be one hell of a bill. A new era of TRIVIUM is about to begin. We'll see you out there."

IN FLAMES are riding high after setting Gothenburg alight at their flagship Göteborg Brinner festival this past weekend, fresh off a powerhouse two-month long summer tour. The band are channeling an unmatched wave of momentum to deliver their signature blend of melodic death metal and explosive live energy to fans across our continent next year. The band are currently working on a new studio album. Stay tuned for more information soon.

IN FLAMES are one of the biggest metal bands in the world — never shying away from pushing their artistic boundaries, crafting music that's as catchy as it is crushing. Formed in 1990, the band is considered one of the forefathers of melodic death metal and the purveyors of the "Gothenburg sound". With now fourteen studio albums under their belt, countless successful tours around the globe playing with the likes of BLACK SABBATH, METALLICA, IRON MAIDEN, MEGADETH, JUDAS PRIEST and SLAYER — with millions of records sold and a massive fanbase worldwide, IN FLAMES have proven to be an unstoppable force. From their 1994 debut "Lunar Strain" onwards, the band's intricate twin guitar attack, melodic vocals and superb arrangements have given them a signature sound that has evolved throughout the years.

Fronted by vocalist/guitarist Matthew K. Heafy, alongside guitarist Corey Beaulieu, bassist Paolo Gregoletto and drummer Alex Rüdinger, TRIVIUM have spent more than two decades as one of metal's most consistent forces. Breakout album "Ascendancy" was named "Album Of The Year" by Kerrang!, went gold in the U.K. and sold half a million copies worldwide, later landing in Metal Hammer's top 15 greatest metal albums of the century. Since then, two more gold/silver certifications, six straight Top 25 Billboard 200 debuts and a quarter-billion streams have followed. With 2025's "Struck Dead" EP offering a taste of the new music already on the way and Rüdinger now behind the kit, this run marks the start of a new era for the band.

Zurich's PALEFACE SWISS have exploded out of the extreme metal underground into one of Europe's most talked-about live acts, blending deathcore, beatdown hardcore, and nu-metal into a sound as brutal as it is emotionally raw. Fronted by the magnetic Marc "Zelli" Zellweger, the band's 2025 album "Cursed" and its 2026 follow-up EP "The Wilted" have cemented their reputation for punishing riffs and ferocious, electric shows, making them one of the hottest new acts on the global scene.

Hailing from Copenhagen, VOLA are a Danish-Swedish progressive metal outfit known for fusing tech-metal, djent, and electronica with soaring, atmospheric songwriting. Since breaking through with 2016's "Inmazes", the band has built a devoted global following and amassed tens of millions of streams, with their 2024 album "Friend Of A Phantom" — which featured a guest appearance from IN FLAMES' own Anders Fridén — further showcasing their genre-melding sound.
