IN FLAMES HAVE A SENSE OF PURPOSE

jerk.jpgThat’s the title of their new album, at least, continuing in the could-be-the-title-of-a-self-help-book vein of Come Clarity. It will be released by Nuclear Blast in Europe on April 4, so I imagine Ferret will have it in U.S. stores a day later.

Okay okay okay: I love In Flames, but does anyone remember The Jerk? And how Steve Martin’s mom tells him his dick is his “special purpose?” That’s what this album title reminds me of. I will never be able to hear this album title without thinking of The Jerk.

And now, I suspect, neither will you.
