  • im so glad one of my favorite bands' new music isnt a far cry from their original + older material. i fucking love in flames. their musicianship has evolve to a supreme level. they're showing up alot of other metal bands with this album

  • May In Flames forgive me for originally passing judgement on this album as being not worth listening to. This album is BY FAR one of their best!

    In Flames we trust!! From Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States!

  • FUCK!!! Im gonna cry and not know why !!!

  • I'll just need to say I agree with the top shelf simile from jct! I f'ing love it!! Saw the link on Wellfeartv's channel. Keep that spirit going, for sure !!!

  • this is my favourite song :)

  • they have always been a melodic metal band but this album is unreal instrumental wise every song is just awesome rift on top of awesome rift

  • One of my top 3 bands in existence. Hands down, no questions.

    We will all end In Flames.

  • Spectacular intro and outro!

  • This album was my introduction to this band; i bought it after hearing "All for me" and "Darker Times" and "Where the dead ships dwell".

    Absolutely beautiful. \m/

  • best song ive heard in a long time

  • You cannot label a band mainstream who came from the underground. Especially one that created a niche there. You can label a band that comes from mainstream. Mainstream. But a band that peaked as antimainstream well where else can they go. How can they reinnvent antisociety. They alreadydid that andkilled it. This band is staying true to themselves.

  • IN FLAMES WE TRUST POLAND

  • I personally prefer their new stuff.

  • In Flames We Trust \m/

  • shhhh no fighting. listen to the music. you came here for a reason

  • only found out about these guys lastnight...damn im a loser :O these guys are blimmin amazing!!

  • I see people say that this is "mainstream." What exactly is mainstream with this type of music?

  • Comment removed

  • @happydonut53 dude who fucking cares.. people who pay close attention to "mainstream" vs "underground" are just idiots who believe they are cool because they listen to stuff nobody else does. Just because a band becomes well known doesn't mean they suddenly suck, and bands that aren't famous aren't necessarily good (a possible explanation as to why they are unknown)

  • @happydonut53 IDK, it doesn't sound like Cat Daddy, ASS ASS ASS or anything NIkki Minaj so I don't get what's mainstream about it.

  • wouldnt say mainstream they just r makin somethin different they have nothing to prove to anyone one of the best metal bands ever

  • Colony <3!

  • Insane. Just goddamn insane. Love it!

  • fantastic vocals

  • Friden is really a horrible vocalist now. He was great in "Skydancer" and "The Jester Race". He's trying too hard to sound mainstream now.

  • @videogamerselite270 Still they kick ass live. Think of them whatever you want

  • @videogamerselite270 Why are you talking about mainstream?

    Everything is mainstream nowadays. If you want non-mainstream music yous should propably go listen to Avantgarde.

    Everyone wants to be such a hipster nowadays.

    Wonder if people say in few years that wearing underwear is so mainstream.

    Oh by the way, what is the definition of mainstream? Something that many people like?

    Wake up man, In Flames is known almost everywhere.

  • @BeefJerkyDude His vocals used to be aggresive in The Jester Race and Whoracle, since then they have sounded more and more post-hardcore/metalcore-ish, which is obviously a more popular genre of music. That's why I made that comment. But the problem is that there are actually some good vocalists in that genre. Friden would be a bad one in the genre. Just my opinion though.

  • Peaking on shrooms to my favorite band, front row, headbanging my life out.

    Mayhemfest was the greatest moment of my life!

    May your legend burn on, In Flames!

  • best album in 10's :D

  • @UnStoff Dude, fuck off. I have been listening to In Flames since the mid-90's and enjoy their old stuff and new stuff for different reasons. The bottom line is difficult to deny that all their stuff is top shelve, well composed and flawlessly executed. If you want bands that never evolve in any way and stay "old" then may I suggest you go back to listening to Bon Jovi instead of screaming "sell out" like a pathetic little hipster. Grow up.

  • @jamescraigtaylor same here, well said and i agree completely.

  • in flames we god damn trust this song give goosebumps do it the same to you

  • My speakers are bathing In Flames!! \m/

  • In Flames we all trust!!

  • To "In Flames"

    Guys. You are epic band of our times. I missed your gig in Poland, Warsaw, but I've heard was epic too...

    I write to You with one, little request...

    DON'T LOSE YOUR STYLE, MUSIC AND FUCKIN' GREATNESS FOR MONEY !

    That's all from my side.

    Thanks.

    Bless ya !

  • @TheWilku345 man, i saw in flames the first time in the 90's and i saw the last time 2011. after about 15 or 16 in flames gigs i can tell you that they 're still as great as they where back in the 90s. i love all of theyr albums and i don't give a shit fi theyre not "true" anymore.

    IN FLAMES WE TRUST!!!

  • @TheWilku345 I also missed that gig :< I wish they could visit Poland soon... In Flames we trust!

  • The soon as a metal band adds more melody to their songs...the sooner it would be labeled that it "changed the style". That's so wrong ! It doesn't seem to me that they changed their style...is still metal...and a very good one...it's an improvement in all aspects. What a wonderful thing is that some good bands evolve to something even better, and not stay stuck saying the same thing over and over...it would be very boring.

  • @farbrorbarbror this is a good song but you can't really call it melodeath anymore, its alternative metal. But there is no doubt they are the best.

  • Listen to the jesters race album, then this. And tell me that they weren't perfect then. This is good but just not the same. They're the pioneers of melodeath and should have stayed that way

  • @Goolaahh Cant guys like you just stop it? This is a masterpiece just like all other in flames songs. If they never evolved from their first albums then they would not be as popular like they are today. I really like that they changes style that makes it able to listen to darker melodeath metal and also being able to listen to this and its still the same epic band. There is no doubt, in flames are the best band in the world, they pwn evry god damn rock and metal genre.

  • @Goolaahh Should have? Who are you to decide? Because you preferred it? A band has no obligation to stay true to any one style just because their "fans" consider them best in that style.

  • Holy...Fucking...Crap... An In Flames song hasn't gotten me like that since Take This Life the first time I heard it in my car.

  • Old In Flames, New In Flames.. Who gives a shit?! They are awesome! End of fucking story! Ashes to ashes dust to dust In Flames We Trust!! \m/ <3

  • @EverxOpeningxFlower You just don't appreciate the earlier In Flames clearly. In Flames would have nowhere near the following that they have if it weren't for those early days. You'd do well to remember that.

  • Just awesome, this album rules

  • My girlfriend's name is Pheonix!!  lol :D

    and "My Sweet Shadow" is all I knoww..

    In Flames We Trust!!!! U.S.A.

  • bjorn gelotte is the MAN!!

  • Not the best, but nowhere near the worst from Flames. Love the song All for me! But never forget masterpieces like = Crawl Through Knives,Take This Life,Trigger,Pinball Map,Only for the Weak...In Flames!!

  • @akisalmi Only for the Weak a masterpiece? Lolololol

  • @EverxOpeningxFlower : Yes it is, whats your laughing for?

  • @Matthwick If you can call songs like that a masterpiece, then you can call every song in existence a masterpiece. I think a masterpiece would be something like... "In Flames", "December Flower".

    But you can't call every song you like even if you like them really much a masterpiece...

  • @EverxOpeningxFlower Ah, I would agree that both "In Flames" and "December Flower" are both great, but "Only for the Weak" is the song which shows In Flames at the height of their career. Its fantastic.

  • @Matthwick No no no no no no. First of all, the growls on Clayman where weak growls. They wheren't as powerfull as on The Jester Race and on Whoracle. Only for the weak was a song with a memorable commercial riff (Chorus) and that was about it. I really liked the lyrics though. But then a song like December flower.. Vocals where over the top, it had the best solo In Flames ever did, and the way the song was contructed.... Oh and the Lyrics: "The voice of December losing it's breath......"

  • @EverxOpeningxFlower Clayman has the best in flames vocals of all their albums imo. yes TJR and whoracle may be better albums than clayman but the vocal are not nearly as impressive. TJR and whoracle is basically anders just yelling into a microphone. Listen to the first 30seconds of as the future repeats today. It takes more talent to sing like that

  • Scotland in December!!!

  • Comment removed

  • in flames is awsome and this new album is so fuckin awsome :D

  • thanks for getting your shit together and bringing that shit to finland in november :)

  • some thick autotune in the verse....but the song's still great.

  • Only good things coming from sweeden are... 1. Snus.. ofc. AND 2 IN FLAMES!!

  • @FAGGLED are you stupid man?!

    1. IN FLAMES and then Snus!!! :P

  • @reptilianmajesty94 Haha :D Well thats tru! :p

  • fuckin swedish gods !

  • I bought their this album its just the best. fucking awesome.

  • This song is awesome, and it makes me feel like I'm flying whenever I hear it. Very Van Halen, in a good way.

    You know, as long as you don't pay attention to what he sings, but I stopped listening to Anders ever since AMOC...

  • I think In Flames is the only good thing about Sweden.

  • @Morsosaurus

    In Flames and Millencolin !

  • @Morsosaurus And the blond girls, but In Flames is still better (A)

  • Comment removed

  • For me this is beside come clarity as being almost there. Albums like this let you know that the old sound is still in there somewhere, it's just changed.

    IF does us a service by leaving it that way. The Gothenburg bands created an amazing catalog of great music that eventually ran itself out. IF and Soilwork don't try to reclaim that legacy, they are making something different. Arch Enemy still tries, and can't seem to stop recycling their old riffs or using other bands w/ awful results.

  • The best from the new album!

    In Flames we trust, Croatia! C U 26.9. in Zagreb! :)

  • everyone sticking up for in flames and there so called progression is fine but its getting old people can say that they dont like there newer stuff and there older stuff is better because its true.. i dont hate this but its not as amazing as there older stuff. progression doesnt always mean the music is getting better

  • I'M SO SICK OF THE SAYING "IN FLAMES WE TRUST" SO FUCKING ANNOYING!!!!!

  • @ozztenn In flames we trust.

    

  • @ozztenn In Flames We Trust

  • Real fans evolve with the band.

    It's a matter of faith in the band, and on behalf of real In Flames fans who evolve with them, All I can say is: In Flames We Trust!

  • It's a little better than, A Sense Of Purpose.

  • epic! love this band from day 1. love how theyv'e kept up wid the times n keep changing there sound. in flames we trust!!!!!

  • best song on the new album anyone?

  • @kqwick89 correction : there are 13 best songs from the new album !!!

  • @kqwick89 either this one or liberation. Close call.

  • @kqwick89 YUP

  • Most epic chorus ever.

    End of story.

  • @marnon95 the ordinary story never ends

  • @marnon95

    And most epic intro riff!! :)

  • @marnon95

    Most epic band ever.

    End of story.

  • As someone said. Jester Race had one sound. Whoracle had one sound. And so it's been all the way to this album. Instead of having 100+ similiar songs that would've been extremly boring after 2-3 albums, we now got albums with a sound that make each one unique and that's why this band is the best of the best. It's only ASOP I don't like, but the rest I can listen to over and over again. That's magic :)

  • Even ASOP had like 3-4 decent songs on it....this new album is just not heavy at all. This really depresses me, I thought they'd get out of their slump eventually. It's fine if you like their new stuff, but there is no way you can honestly say its as good as their older material, not even close.

  • This is way better than Deliver Us, gotta say I didn't have high hopes for this album, but this song kicks ass.

  • In Flames 4 Life! <3

  • Inflames doesn't make songs, they create windows that allow us to peer into their souls. Their "sound" is a reflection of how their loves are . If you go all the way back to Lunar strain you will see that each album has been completely different than the last, they have never had a consistant "sound" so the argument of "new" sound is invalid considering they never had an "old" sound to begin with.

  • in flames just fucking own, no whatter what they sound like cant wait to see them.

  • I'm a long time In Flames fan, and I have to say that I've connected emotionally a lot better with A Sense of Purpose and Sounds of a Playground Fading than with their previous work. I think the music has faltered a bit in the eyes of old fans, but their new stuff is still really good. Jesper and Bjorn have both been huge influences on my development as a guitar player. They're still a great band making great music.

  • Their older material is what gave In Flames a name and turned them into a legend in the world of metal...their new material is not bad at all but a big change from how they started. The sound is almost completely different so it makes sense for old time fans to be discouraged. So far this album seems way better than A Sense of Purpose, an album I was personally upset with. I can't get myself to love this album though...but I will forever be a fan of In Flames and they remain my favorite band.

  • in flames Rules no matter how much they change there sound xd at the moment they begin to play POP im gone xD but they dont so il stay faithfull to them ^^ 

  • Everyone should just quit their bitching and enjoy the fucking album

    In Flames We Trust

    Hails, from Canada.

  • No difference between old and new In Flames? How about the fact that they have no more original members left? This band has become so boring and uninspired now. Every song pretty much has the same rhythm and tempo, with nothing to latch onto. Anders is still competing to be the next Jonathan Davis of Korn. People like it? That's cool. Their songwriting, artwork, lyrics, and recurring themes used to be very intriguing. I'd actually support the band if they still made relevant music. This = ZZzzZz

  • @Mzral It sure is different, but I wouldn't say it's boring. I like both the old and new stuff, and, just as you said, treat them as if they were made by two different bands. It's not bands you like in the first place, it's their music. You still like it, listen to it. You don't like it, you've still got the first six albums to listen to. No one has to preach, you won't make people like music just by telling them it's the shit.

  • Haha...I found it!!! :D Call me what you will, but I heard this song while shopping at Hot Topic. I thought it was In Flames, so I had to buy the album, but they didn't have the CD there...:(...but untill I find it I can listen to it on here...lol

  • Talk shit about the change all you want, it still sounds good.

  • one of their best songs ever .... bash them as long as you want but this musik will outlast over the centuries

  • dude, i saw this song on the tumblr of jona weinhofen! Just listen it en omg, I totally like this song! Going to listen more form you guys! Totally loving this song!

  • this badass! but lunar strain is still the haredest album!

    just a different style of metal! In Flames is THE band!!!!!

  • Eargasm...

  • It's not about blindly following the band you worship. You can learn to appriciate different music and what I would say makes a true fan is someone who, dispite the band making each and every album different, still gives them second, third and fourth chances and learns to appriciate their works.

  • I creamed myself at 0:00-3:47...incredible

  • Great song. Shut the fuck up and listen.

  • That main riff sounds a lot like something Skyfire would do. And that's a good thing!

  • One of my favorite In Flames songs ever!

  • I hoped that Sound of a fading playground would be more like reroute to remain, but this new style is sooo godlike!

  • they finally became a true metal band. i hope they get even harder in the next album. fuck anyone who disagrees... go listen to some more justin bieber

  • Some people when they hear a song again and again they get bored of it.

    This doesn't work for me with In Flames.

  • Something's wrong, why can I only see my own views?

  • Reminds me of "swim" from Clayman, which is a very, very, very high compliment. Bjorn did an awesome job!

  • @VenomOXP Dude!!!! That is SOOO true!!!

  • if you were take this song's lyrics and think about all the hater fans In Flames has had to deal with going through their progression this song is very deep. You can only go and try to find all the answers for your fans for so long until you just give out and finally realise again, that you're doing this music for yourself and the real fans will follow

  • @1985ericjames I never looked at the lyrics and thought of it that way, but it'd make perfect sense if that was the song was actually about. Guitar work is amazing, still the same style to me. Just a lot more mature.

  • In Flames fuckin rocks!!!!! The evolution of their music thru the years makes the perfect playlist. No matter what mood I am in, there is an In Flames song that speaks to me.

    In Flames we trust USA

  • You cant beat in flames' riffs, I'll give you my car if you find one that does.

  • @nboys99990 Children of Bodom - Downfall / Needled 27/7 and other songs

  • @nboys99990 Children of Bodom - Kissing the shadows / Dimmu Borgir - Vredesbyrd

  • ΕΠΟΣ

  • The amazing intro doesn't fit with the rest of the song haha. But I actually like this song alot. I'm surprised that I like the new album as much as I do. The music is both really mellow and intense at times. Can't wait to see these guys in concert soon

  • @sonicx2218 It's the most awesome intro to a song, just genious :)

  • are people really bitching about this album? You bitched when they made ASOP, but now they sound kind of like they did with Reroute, hell some things on this album remind me of OLD (90s) in flames, and you still bitch -____-

  • This is fucking awesome.

  • if you were a real fan of in flames you would still like them even if they changed i like old and new so people who hate them because they changed your not real fans so go ahead and argue with me saying that doesnt mean shit even though it does.

  • Fucking Amazing as usual!!

    In Flames We Trust!!

    `Canada

  • that's a great song with a great riff. Nice production.

  • Love the hell out of the new album.

    In Flames We Trust~Mississippi

  • dude this is awesome... and check out the clock on the cover of the album, dude its reversed... sweet :D

  • I can only say one thing

    Godly.

  • Okey, this is sick! I've listened to the album through my computer speakers, pretty good ones. And I have thought to myself, well, this is nothing special. The point came today, I bought the CD, and put it into my big Canton hifisystem. Sat down in the sofa, and.......bam. I sat quite during the whole album, for about 40 minutes. Didn't moved. This was something special. Genious! Every single detail approached. So everyone, until you've heard it with real sound, don't comment! In Flames rules!!!

  • @divra93 Gött mos In Flames........bästa skivan hittills Göteborg kan leverera!!!!! :)

  • @divra93 I listened to this album really softly in my cubicle at work and I thought it sucked, then I listened to it at home with my m50's and now I realize it's fucking awesome.

  • In Flames We Trust!

  • beginning kinda reminds me of Swim.

  • FUCK YEAHH FEELS SO GOOD!!!

  • I geeked out to this in the store and jizzed in mah pants, glad to hear another outstanding and amazing album from IN FLAMES!!!!

  • Look. These guys aren't getting any younger and to hear the same albums over again would get boring. Let artists do what they do. If you don't like you're more than welcome to not listen.

  • yeah, it's a new style - again (like almost every new album they are releasing). but after listening to the first 4 or 5 sounds - you recognize it's "them". fucking love this song! that's in flames! without a doubt! the sound, the voice, the feeling. 12 years after listening to "my" first in flames cd - i still love them. keep the "deeper" style, guys! still keeping goose pimples (if that's the translation?) when anders friden is singing "almost" clear voice... *sigh*

  • no matter what old or new.... this is INFLAMES!!

  • In Flames We Trust!

  • This band comes out with tracks that do not disappoint year after year. Negative comments or not they have brought 9 albums to the table that most bands wish they could accomplish.

  • please don't call this melodic death metal. melodic death metal is dead it died a long time ago thanks to dick heads like all of you

  • @bastienalexander it's not Melodic Death Metal. Didn't some of the band members say, that they don't see In Flames as a Melodic Death Metal band?

    by the way if you want MDM, listen to Dark Tranquility

    they are still doing the same

  • IF YOU LIKE METAL, CHECK THIS OUT!

    RISING IN VAIN - DESOLATE MIND

  • man the first riff is so "old" style, i still catch a glimpse of good in flames sometimes

  • I wouldn't want them to make another album as STYE, Colony or Clayman. I already have those. It would just become boring and repetetive. Some of these new songs might not be as epic as the best of the old ones, but they're still pretty bad ass.

  • Now THIS sounds a lot more melodeath than the rest of the album. :P

  • In Flames has always been amazing, but I'm really diggin' this new sound!

  • @zalmanusa Fuck you, no one cares what you think. I actually know how to play a guitar, therefore when I say Melodic, it doesn't mean that its only a Melody, I could refer to it as much more Melodic, as I stated on that comment, Meaning its more Vivid, sort of making itself very aware, They used different methods in this new direction of metal. Its all about how you listen fag, so keep your gay and retarded comments to yourself. Metal rules, and you're a queer.

  • Check out my cover of Ropes. Full song with solo. figured it out by ear a few days before the album came out :D

  • Man, comments really ruin the mood of the song. Yeah, In Flames changed their sound again. It's called progression and it's how bands survive. If they never changed, you'd all be whining about how they're always the same and always boring. This just shows who the more faithful fans are, the ones who will always love In Flames no matter what.

    In Flames We Trust.

  • @assburgered i agree with you 100% most bands that survive this long their sound has gradually changed

  • @assburgered I don't love them no matter what... I love them as long as they are amazing.

    And this album is amazing.

  • @DarthXehanort So you love them
