In Process is a groove metal band founded in 2006, based in Helsinki, Finland. After some time of keeping a low profile, the band went through some lineup changes and was reactivated in the beginning of 2012. At the end of that year they sent into to record this five track EP. I think that it is safe to say that these guys have listened to a lot of classic Sepultura and have decided that they want to produce more of the same, and it is some of the drum patterns that are starting to set this band aside from the rest of the pack. But, overall this is an EP that shows promise as opposed to being the complete package, and it will be interesting to see what comes out with the debut album (which they are currently working on). There are some interesting elements and ideas (“Flatline” is very different to the rest of the album, far more experimental, dark and interesting) but they need to expand on these some more or run the risk of being overlooked as there are so many metal bands around.
