Metal Meets Symphony in Gothenburg

A hundred-and-four-piece orchestra and choir are reimagining the heavy riffs and melodic hooks of Swedish metal legends In Flames, At The Gates, and Dark Tranquillity in a stunning three-night concert series in Gothenburg — the very city where vocalist Mikael Stanne grew up loving classical music. Arranged by a composer known for U2, the performances honor the bands’ landmark 1995 albums, recorded in the same studio, and even include a tribute piece for At The Gates’ late frontman Tompa. Stanne, now seeing his band’s music elevated to high art on his hometown stage, plans to attend as a curious audience member — a full-circle moment he calls “incredible.” Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
