Meet Your Maker is al de vijfde vooruitgeschoven track uit het nieuwe In Flames album, Foregone, dat op 10 februari uitkomt via Nuclear Blast. Op die manier hebben we al de helft van het album gehoord nog voordat het in de bus valt. Voorlopig staan voor mij de geniale tracks met 3-2 in het voordeel tegenover de mindere. Meet Your Maker heeft de balans in het voordeel van de geniale laten overslaan.
De clip toont de band die een live performance van het nummer geeft en voor de fans die er bij waren bij de geniale optredens in Brussel en Nederland zullen de setting en de belichting zeker herkennen.
Over enkele weken weten we hoe de totale balans van Foregone valt. Ik ben benieuwd.

Frontman Anders Fridén states, "When we started to write for Foregone, Meet Your Maker became the song that set the tone in terms of what we were aiming for sonically as well as thematically. You’ll see it’s everything you’ve come to expect from In flames and some. Enjoy and see you on the road in 2023!"
