History

The group originally formed as "Drowned" in 1996. The members of the band at that time were Dave McPherson on guitar and vocals, Joe Morgan on bass and backing vocals and Simon Taylor on drums. They played several local venues, getting their first interviews and airplay on Brentwood-based station Phoenix FM. They signed with MFN in 2001 and changed their name to "InMe" to avoid confusion with the American Christian rock group of the same name. David Alexander John McPherson (born October 2, 1982 in Harold Wood, London) is a rock musician. ... Phoenix FM is a community radio station serving the areas of Brentwood and Billericay, England. ... Music for Nations is a recording company that has put forth many different rock recordings. ...


During 2004, however, the record company MFN collapsed and InMe were left without a label. They signed with V2 Records and created their own "Pandora's Box Records". V2 Records (or V2 Music) is a record label that was started in 1996 by Richard Branson, five years after he sold Virgin Records to EMI. Over the years V2 acquired Junior Boys Own, Gee Street Records, Blue Dog Records, and Big Cat Records. ...


As of the 19th July 2006, Joe Morgan ceased to play bass for InMe. He has been replaced by Dave's brother Greg McPherson. Joe has chosen to leave the band on good terms and to pursue a different career.


Music Style

Their musical style of simple riffs combined with angst-ridden lyrical material has led many to dub them as 'Nu-Metal', although since they emerged onto the screens of Kerrang! TV shortly after the popularity of this fad had waned and the term had ceased to be applied so widely, the most accurate label for InMe's music would probably be post-grunge.


In the early days of Overgrown Eden, InMe were labelled by many as 'Nu-Metal', but upon the release of White Butterfly, it became clear that the band had matured and were labelled by many as 'Post-Grunge'. Early performances of tracks off of DayDream Anonymous have suggested to many that InMe may be heading back slightly towards the music heard in Overgrown Eden. It could be argued that InMe's music style on DayDream Anonymous is more Progressive and technical.


Overgrown Eden

InMe's first single, "UnderDose", was released in 2002 and entered the UK charts at #66. This was followed by the single 'Firefly' which entered the top 40. The band released one more single before the album; 'Crushed like fruit' which reached #25 in the UK charts. Their debut album was delayed several times until its eventual release on January 30, 2003 titled Overgrown Eden. The record entered the UK album charts at #15. This was followed by the single 'Neptune'. Overgrown Eden is the debut album from the essex trio; InMe. ...


On June 5, 2006, Overgrown Eden was re-released in its original format. This was due to the band finally getting the rights for the album from MFN.


White Butterfly

Their second album, White Butterfly, was released June 20th 2005. It was released in two forms in the UK, a standard edition with thirteen tracks, and a limited edition with two bonus tracks 'Every whisper aches' and 'Angels with Snipers'. The first single from White Butterfly was technically "Faster The Chase" back in 2004 when the band were still with MFN. Before the release of the album, there was a leak where several tracks, due to be released for the first time on the album, escaped and were downloaded by many InMe fans. This incident is often used to explain why White Butterfly did not reach as high as Overgrown Eden in the UK chart. After, download-only single, "Otherside", was released at a cost of £0.99p (GBP) per download. The first in-store single to be released on the new label, however, was "7 Weeks" which reached #36 in the UK singles chart. The second single from the album So You Know reached #33. The release of White Butterfly was sandwiched between a tour of the UK. White Butterfly was produced by Josh Abraham, known for his work with other big name bands such as KoЯn. White Butterfly is the second album from the Essex trio InMe. ... Josh Abraham is a music producer who has worked with many leading bands including Staind, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park , Courtney Love, and most famously Deadsy. ... Korn logo KoЯn. ...


The band released a double a-side download single "White Butterfly/Safe In A Room" on the 19th December, 2005 with a 5 track live EP. It can be purchased from the HMV download store, which turned up at #36 in the National download chart.


The album White Butterfly was written dedicated to James Austin, a friend of the group who met Joe during secondary school. James passed away six weeks before his 19th birthday in July of 2002 after an accident on holiday with friends celebrating the end of A-Level exams. James is the reason behind the name white butterfly. When he was a child, he had once stroked a white butterfly's wing, he'd always remind people that he was 'special' as it is obviously, for an encounter such as this, very rare indeed. It has been said that on several occasions after his passing when his family or friends thought or spoke of him, a white butterfly flew past, making them feel as if he was close. Species Pieris angelika Pieris brassicae Pieris marginalis Pieris napi Pieris rapae … Pieris is a widespread genus of butterflies, many of whose caterpillars feed on cabbages and other members of the brassica family. ...

Caught: White Butterfly

A live album, titled Caught: White Butterfly was recorded at the London Astoria on the 17th December 2005 at the end of a massive UK tour. It was released on the 14th August 2006. InMe have always played a mixture of both the new and the old material, playing tracks from Overgrown Eden, White Butterfly and some of their B-sides live. The London Astoria is a music venue at 157 Charing Cross Road in London. ... Overgrown Eden is the debut album from the essex trio; InMe. ... White Butterfly is the second album from the Essex trio InMe. ...


The album was a prelude to an eagerly awaited live DVD of the bands performance at the London Astoria at the same date, named "White Butterfly Caught Live", which was released on October 9th 2006. On release, the demand was very high and prices rose quickly on both www.amazon.co.uk and www.play.com
