Last week, In Flames brought some noisy metal back to Kalamazoo, while on tour with Hellyeah, From Ashes to New, and Source. I've been a fan of In Flames since I heard Colony a long time ago, so I've been looking forward to the show for a while now. They did not disappoint.

Thursday night, December 1st, Hellyeah hit the Kalamazoo State Theater with In Flames, From Ashes to New, and Source, for an amazing metal show. All four bands kicked ass, and the crowd was having a great time, singing along, moshing, crowd surfing...everything a good metal show should have!

On Thursday night, December 1st, I drove down to Kalamazoo to see some great bands at the Kalamazoo State Theater. Really nice theater, and I've been a fan of In Flames since I first heard Colony.
