In Flames recently released the digital single for their track, 'Where The Dead Ships Dwell. The digital single includes not only the original song from the most recent album, Sounds Of A Playground Fading - which debuted at #27 on the Top 200 Billboard Charts and topped international charts - but also features three extremely diverse remixes of the song.

Below is the trailer for 'Where The Dead Ships Dwell'. The tracklist looks like this:

'Where The Dead Ships Dwell' (album version)

'Where The Dead Ships Dwell' (Casper remix)

'Where The Dead Ships Dwell' (The Qemists remix)

'Where The Dead Ships Dwell' (Kristof Bathory - Dawn Of Ashes remix)

In Flames vocalist Anders Fridén comments, "The songs are already made and the originals are as good as they can be. But what if I give them to an artist from a whole different genre, what would be their take on it? I love collaborations like this and all the artists we worked with have done an awesome job. It's not meant to be taken dead serious and it's not how IF's gonna sound next. But I love it and I hope you'll enjoy a twist to the formula."

Casper: "Since I have been a huge In Flames fan since I was a teenager, I was honored to even be considered for a remix of one of their songs from their new chart-topping album. When I used to play in metal bands, it was all about having riffs comparable to these guys and to now, as a rapper (!!!), be a part of the new single is mindblowing. We didn’t really know how to approach the material, since it is my first remix job ever, so we went the dancy French house route. I really deeply do hope that people enjoy it. Feeling blessed."

The Qemists: "From the first listen we were blown away by the whole album, so we jumped at the chance to remix one of our favorite tracks from Playground. We wanted to create something for the clubs which still embodied the spirit of this album. Going back to the original recordings rather than just having a vocal accapella allowed us to do something with the vocals which would not normally be possible on a remix, and In Flames are a band who obviously like to push the boundaries, so we thought they would probably like our ideas!"

Kristof Bathory from Dawn Of Ashes: "It was quite an honor to work on this remix & add an industrial vibe to an In Flames track. I feel that my evil ways definitely comes out in this remix. So for In Flames fans, enjoy my devilry!"
