In Vain has just released their new music video to the track “Captivating Solitude” – taken from the new album “Mantra” (out now). The music video can be seen here, and also on the bands MySpace profile.

With their new epic masterpiece “Mantra”, In Vain takes the step up amongst the heavyweights of the genre. With extreme, brutal passages, progressive guitar riffs, beautiful melodies and a diverse use of vocal styles, the album continues the progression from previous album “The Latter Rain”. This album proves that the band is in it for the long haul. It is safe to say that this is the best In Vain album to date.

Founder, guitarist and song writer J. Haaland notes: “Hope you enjoy the new album, an album we put and extreme amount of energy and work into. An album which has given us a lot of frustration, but in the end an album we are extremely proud of.”

“One of the most compelling, absurd and utterly brilliant progressive metal releases since Opeth’s ‘Watershed’.” 9/10 Rocksound magazine
