Metal To The Masses 2021 Interviews: In Which It Burns (Interview By Matt Bladen)

Interview With In Which It Burns By Matt Bladen

MoM: Give us an introduction to the band for anyone that doesn't know you. Band name, members, style etc

In Which It Burns: We are West Wales thrash metal crew In Which It Burns. Steven Flynn - Guitars, Eugen 'Vinny' Lowe - Drums, Ian 'Squid' Jennings - Bass, Wayne 'Stretch' Mayhew - Guitars and Vox

MoM: Elephant in the room. How have you coped with the pandemic? What have you been up too?

In Which It Burns: Pandemic was/is a full on ball ache but we kept busy writing for our second album. We did a few videos that we filmed with mobile phones and mixed together best we could. We parted ways with bassist mikey, and got in new guy Ian 'Squid' Jennings, and have entered the studio with Allen Chambers in Creature Sound Studios in Swansea and recorded our soon to be released album 'Consume Kill Repeat' along with a re-working and reissue of our first album 'Silence The Nothing' and a bundle of new merch designs. Aside from that, we managed to get a photoshoot in, did a gig in Creature Sound using in ear monitors, filmed and screened to an outside audience, and we were jamming the second we could form a bubble, and managed to squeeze a few live streams shows in... but not much else!!

MoM: What experience have you had with Bloodstock/M2TM in the past?

In Which It Burns: We were finalists in the 2019 M2TM meet. We had some of our best gigs there that year. Was an awesome experience.

MoM: How are you feeling entering this slightly restructured M2TM format?

In Which It Burns: We're as ready as ever. We wanna hit the stage asap. Just the chance to do this again has put a leap in our steps.

MoM: What would it mean to play Bloodstock? Would it be more significant doing so this year, after everything that's happened with live music?

In Which It Burns: To play Bloodstock, at the same show as some of the bands we grew up with, would be awesome, made even more significant after the events of the last year. The stage is where we belong. The size is not important, but to see live audiences again would be killer.

MoM: Give us a three word rundown of what to expect in your performance?

In Which It Burns: Brutal Fast Heavy

Final Thought: In Which It Burns are band who have come furthest West, so they will surely bring an outlaw attitude to the competition.
