  • they kick ass live

  • he should never have gotten dreds or cut his hair

  • Ulquiorra ftw!!!! XD

    

  • im the moonshield !

  • HAHA björn hair xD

  • If you like this, you'll like a Haunted Mantra. We are a melodic death metal band from Charlotte, NC, and are very heavily influenced by the Gothenberg sound.

  • @ahauntedmantra Nah.

  • This song and the album its from are both personal favourites of mine :)

  • wow they all look so different. Which year was this show?

  • @ffr3ak this was probably the jester race tour, whenever that album came out like 13 years ago or something

  • @AbtinX LOL no, they played colony and bullet ride at this show.

  • @cj397 what? lol

  • @AbtinX it is not jester race tour when they played colony and bullet ride and only for the weak at this show

  • @ffr3ak 2000 in columbus ohio

  • Looks like Clayman or slightly pre-clayman. It was around this time I first saw them live. Now it has been 15 times! :oP Best band in the world!

  • personally i dont like this Anders.I like Anders with beard and dreads with voice that he use nowadays.But i love every single songs what In Flames have done.

  • @Deadaloneify this anders' vocals are far better tbh

  • hopefully anders got his hair cut a couple months ago so he can grow his hair out again like this with no beard

  • anders kind of looks like Corpsegrinder to me, its funny cause im expecting him so sound much lower haha

  • @LordHypnos93

    Anders looked kind of "BIG" in the start, atleast :PD

  • Anders, before his beard and his dreads.

  • Their new stuff is great, but their old stuff is orgasmic

  • Maaan Abders looks so young

  • a Sense of Purpose sucks! hail old in flames (without fucking clear vocals!)

  • @TheTreeofFate Come on man. I hate old fans that can't watch a band evolve and are fair weathered. I don't wanna listen to the same record over and over; anything In Flames touches is gold. Every band makes a mediocre record here and there, Stick by your band dude

  • @thestonejar theyre not evolving...theyre devolving, because now they sound just like these other bands. clayman was acceptable. it was getting more like rock than metal, but at least they still made some great songs. reroute to remain and everything after it, especially a sense of purpose, was just bullshit made to get more fans and gain popularity.

  • hard to believe that this anders and the 2010 anders with shity vocals are the same

  • björns hair is semi-afro lol :D

  • They were literally IN FLAMES back then!

  • old and great!

  • The sound quality of this video is nice. I love the way the bass is strong! It sounds way better than The Tokyo Showdown.

  • In Flames are my heroes. Most people think heavy metal has to be like just noise. In Flames remind everyone that it's gotta be music too.

  • i love the ballady, waltzy feel this song has

  • I'm sure In Flames doesn't care about all of these youtube-arguements. Just enjoy their music. old or new. :)

  • Their new music is enjoyable? O_o

    That came as a shock to me.

  • Actually the entire band states that the Subterranean EP was the last of the "projects." The band got tired hiring session drummers and vocalists, and got Anders and Bjorn into the band. The Jester Race was the first cd where the band was an ACTUAL BAND not a PROJECT.

    Then again, maybe they are dumb and pretty stupid if they think that too.

  • i so fucking love this song :) this song always relaxes me when i listen to it :)

  • ugh...Alrosa Villa. Horrid place. Haven't been since before Dime was killed there.

  • This is actually the theme song for

    Ulquiorra (Anime).

  • Get the mother fuck out. Clayman was not mallcore you fucking dickbag piss sucker.

    It's more fucking metal than a goddamn girder factory.

    You need to eat a big ol throbbing dick for talking shit about Clayman.

  • everything after clayman is pretty lame though but crawl through knives isnt that bad in my opinion.

  • I enjoy some of the stuff after clayman but it's not as heavy as stuff before reroute, though I like reroute to remain a lot too.

  • Your comment is just a proof that u have no idea about in flames. I know you think your the mastermind of metalmusic and everything what comes from your mouth is the pure truth but dude seriously it's not. In Flames always played what they liked to play so do not make such statements. It's not If's fault that they sell more cd's then 13-14years ago it's just the result of making good music and touring 2/3 the time of a year.

  • Yes, i am a metal mastermind kiddo, I've listened to in flames since the "Lunar Strain" days, when their music was FRESH and CREATIVE, not the system of a down / slipknot / korn bullshit they embraced (and continue embracing). Of course they sell more cds! as I said before: Then they became mallcore pop rock (and very commercial oriented).

    Want to listen REAL metal? Listen to Dimension Zero, Jesper's project, tha's the true "In Flames" sound. (and that's the reason I still respect Jesper).

  • You should get a bit more openminded dude serious. Just because you listining to to melodeath/death/black only it doesnt mean in flames got bad over the years. In Flames changed over the years ye but they are still a badass band. Just because u don't like how they sound nowadays you don't have to right to jugde them.

  • I listened to another stuff as well, not only metal; but you know, i listen to real METAL, not quasi-metal like this.

    Of course i have the right to judge them and/or reject them, I have the right to state my opinion, and of course, to encourage people to listen better bands than this commercial outfit. P.S. No man, they are definitely not a BAD ASS band! They are Laugable actually (Anders with tie, "bad ass"fire in the stage, hip hop parts, emo sung parts, come on!). Just my humble opinion.

  • @LordNothing Ok go listen REAL METAL youre just a poser than who says omgz im a real metal fan etc. i love every single in flames album and they made great music and they make great music now. you dont have to categorize everything between real metal and shit. who cares if its pure real metal sound its good music and it will always be. if its not real metal enough for you dont listen it but not being a real metal band is not same as being a sellout band.

  • You know shit about metal, asswipe. Why I know that? because you are unable to UNDERSTAND that their music is now more COMMERCIAL and POP than ever. I listen to many bands that are not metal and are great, even bands that used to play metal and now don't, make better efforts than this piece of crap. Hopefully with the departure of Jesper, he is going to make METAL again. And remember asshole I commented this in my first post: I do not listen New In Flames, is just a waste of time.

  • @LordNothing Bullshit man, the only difference I hear is more melody and cleaner vocals, wats wrong with that? They are still the same genre as before, theyve just changed their sound a bit, big difference between that and selling out. Sure their new album wasnt the best, maybe theyll make another clayman, and if u like the band no new album is a waste of time if ur a real fan, so grow up kid, i agree with the other bloke.

  • @MoOsHw Bullshit to you. Don't tell me fuckin suburban me and lord hypnos are the same genre

  • @thrashistheshit Fuck, not suburban me, i meant come clarity

  • @MoOsHw Man, you are the one who has to grow up. FIRST: I AM NOT A REAL FAN, as you state, so that give me a lot more chance to dislike their newer albums. TWO: I dislike In Flames since "Clayman", so if they return to that sound, in this ears they will continue to suck., hehehehe.

    Guys, really, there is nothing wrong with me saying that I don't like their new stuff, it is my oppinion. If you like their new sound, go and get them. I am just providing my OPPINION of this particular band.

  • @LordNothing Ok dude, u shouldve told me that from the start, haha.

  • you really like your labels don't you?

  • there isnt such a thing as mallcore bro so you lose.

    In Flames is still metal even now just a different kind of metal. do you relized there isnt just ONE sound for metal to fit into...its soo diverse and spread out no sub genre can be called "true metal"

  • In flames! \_/

  • @JonasJJH  Totally agree..no offense for new fans, the new stuff is good, but old In Flames is the essence..I wouldn't like a show of IF without moonshield, only for the week, sattelites and so on...new stuff is just new...

  • Uh wtf are you talking about, there new music will be outadted in 10 years, but there old music wont. that's the diffrence of good and band music... i mean even there latest albums are abit outdated already since the metalcore evolved abit since, but there old album works just as fine still.....

  • no. good music will exist always. IF is always good. i have no doubt they will exist always. zip it. LOVE.

  • What is wrong with you fuckheads? It's a good thing they've changed their sound. If not, they would eventually end up like most metal legends, old and rusty and outdated. In Flames are keeping up with the times and that just proves their skill and open mindedness.

    And so what if it's even for money? These guys have a life too! Sheesh. Would you rather see them go out of business? And disband?

    IN FLAMES WE TRUST FOR LIFE AND FOREVER! USA

  • finally a comment with some logic. thanks!

  • xgraffxlegendx, You sir.. Win.

    In Flames is amazing, and always will be. Their old songs will be in our hearts forever, and so will their new songs. And yes, openmindedness is a great thing to have.

  • Metallica is Awesome and In Flames is Awesome so everyone just shut up!

  • big difference between metallica and in flames is that metallica has always been overrated untalented pricks and in flames where gods and now wasting their talent making shitty gothenburg nu-metal/ alternative metal.

  • maybe. in flames has always stuck to a specific sound. a sense of purpose is very deviant. i must admit a sense of purpose is one of my least favorite albums. i mean. the guitars are good. anders vocals are way different.

  • i agree a little bit , old in flames was more original , why did they changed? did they wanted more money? Damn it!!! Old in flames was GOD and new is Good but not better then the old GODS!!!!

  • Hmm,you people talking about Metallica on an In Flames video?

    I say fuck you, and say In Flames >>>>> Metallica!

    In Flames ruled and still rules compared to many other bands!

  • you cant deny the power of money ;) dont blame them for changing their styles or etc

  • i think people take their change for granted... as godly as this is, if they kept making it it would get repetitive after a while. Their new stuff isn't even bad.. it just makes their old stuff that much better to listen to

  • who cares what kind of new stuff they make.. we still have their old songs.. and no one can take them away from us :P

  • the old in Flames aare so much better than the new shit. I've been to concerts from 1999 on and saw them changing. It's not a bad thing when a band grows or changed,but the way how In flames did it is'nt a good in my point of view.

  • i agree with you on one point. i love when a band grows and I hate it when fans are all like "ya, i've been listening to them for x-years and there new shit sucks just cause I'm an old fan." On the other hand, I've really appreciated In Flames' growth. They're just SO AWESOME!!!

  • idk wtf is up with the not the real flames, gay, lame, and how the old days were real bullshit. they started and are still good even if they did change their sound, times have changed. if they kept their "old sound" it would all start to sound the same if you don't like it don't listen to it

  • um, jester race was real in flames..

    bjorn, jesper and anders were real in flames.

  • they still are real In Flames, just pay attention.. even if u despise ASOP, the solo two thirds threw Alias is a reflection of their roots, its called evolution, evolution is what in flames if fucking about. im sure we've all heard worlds within the margin, it has to be my favorite

  • haha,you made me laugh,thank you

  • Björn looks funny in that hairstyle ^^ Still awesome vid though!!

  • MoooooooooooonshieldUHHHH.

  • It's anders, just without his dreads. come on now!

  • In Flames DID sell out, have you actually compared their first 4 cds, with their last 4? It's disgraceful.

  • Yeah, In Flames used to be amazing, and now they produce trash.

  • screw you man. they've moved in a different musical direction, thats all.

    if they just put out the same music, over and over again, that would be a sell - out.

  • why would they be sellouts if they still played this kind of music?

    They changed their sound so that the mainstream puplic would like them, thats what selling out means.

  • ACDC sucks ass, and you know why? cause their music all sounds the fucking same! and you want in Flames to be like that too?

  • In Flames sucks ass, and you know why? cause they changed their sound to some gay shit.

    R.I.P In Flames 1990-2002

  • In Flames rock, and you suck.

  • Even bands like Metallica changed their sound in some way over the years. It happens, fans needs to actually be in the musical world to understand that overtime bands will have to change their sound to keep up or to try new things. We wouldn't have 2817382917389278 genres of metal if everyone stuck to the same sound.

  • dude? lol? death magnetic is pure trash metal. what are you talkin about.

  • and mainstream public like in flames? cause I see them being played on MTV all the time.

  • Comment removed

  • ehehehe you retard it is anders, SO STOP TALKING SHIT ABOUT HIM BEFORE I SEARCH YOU UP AND CUT YOUR TROATH

  • IT'S Anders, this show was recorded a long time ago, when they were playing their Jester Race stuff (although they played Jester Race and Dead God in Me on the last Canada tour)...

  • its from the clayman tour in 2000

    and In Flames are as kickass now as they were then, all you fags talking about them changing or selling out can go fuck off and listen to ac/dc for 30 years.

  • I totally agree, In Flames are stronger than ever now, the proof is that they're still playing their old stuff. I love the newer stuff, but I like the Jester Race/Whoracle/Colony days way better (I'm not saying that they're selling out or that they're not good!!!)

  • nice song

  • I love all of their songs.. but I don't know, in concerts I don't think playing slow songs like these.. would be... enough to make me mosh the fuck out of them.

    In a rock concert, I want fast riffs that gets your blood pumping. I love Moonshield because of the riffs, but not my type of concert song. :\

  • um, its good to have a song to just relax and enjoy in the middle of a set..dumbass.

  • Um, its a good song yes. Did I say anything bad about the song? Likely not.

    My opinion still stands and if you feel need to reply someone calling them a dumbass then, good riddance they don't play this song live. Boring ass fuck.. dumbass :O

  • Colony is 100% in flames, and so are Lunar Strain and so are A Sense of Purpose.

    Björn did some songwriting already on the jester race, and the reason why the sound has changed a bit is because they are all creative people with abilities to make different music.

  • i have NOT seen ONE concert with In Flames not sounding amazing , their instruments as well!

  • i dont know, but this is maybe the best IF song.

  • December Flower is my favorite song from this album, only cause of the killer solo.

  • So real In Flames sucks? I can live with that considering I don't listen to any of their stuff past Whoracle.

  • This is real In Flames. Everything that In Flames puts out now is to please their new "Hot Topic" audience.

  • he is a better frontman now... he was a kid in here :D

  • Anders, you look fucking awesome without beard and stupid dreadlocks.

  • I seriously have goosebumps throughout the whole song. Just amazing.

    Reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone!

  • I wish I was there... I so wish I was there.. in fact I wish I could have seen any of their shows from before Reroute to Remain was launched... these must have been the most epic..

  • wtf is up with bjorn's hair lmao

  • To be perfectly honest, I don't mind the new In Flames sound, though it doesn't compare their old stuff.

  • i agree, the old is better but some new songs are pretty good

  • I know. The new IF is good, but it's not "In Flames" if you get what I mean.

  • i agree with u guys

  • Nothing beats this..Nothing..

  • absolutely right. this and dead eternity are the epitome of sweedish melodic death metal.

  • So basically, it doesn't sound half bad live and they were bitching about how they can't play this song. HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

  • in every good performance of anders I have seen he is drunk as hell....okay peter your the biggest forcing anders to drink is your job xD

  • Bjorn. ha

  • same here, ever since he got them they started to suck.

  • When is this from?

  • amazing <3

  • fukinhell in flames what happen to you!

  • WOW

    Even if God existed than Jesper would own Him anytime.

    I love 1:10-1:40 that part

  • I agree, I love him so much i brought same guitar as him. HES SO AMAZING!

  • In Flames we trust !

  • ...when in flames doesnt sucks

  • A fucking classic. It transcends more emotion than their newer songs.

  • this must be shortly after the release of clayman, great song, kickass band(the old stuff ofc)

  • Yeah, they changed too much, I miss the good real In flames! i would like to listen new songs with the old style, but that's impossible now.

  • unfortunely

  • The best song of In Flames!!! They changed too much...

  • Someone reupload Pinball Map from this concert some FAGGOT staff thought live concert videos were illegal and deleted it.

  • HAHAHA omg björn looks funny :D

  • damn daniel looks quite different there

    btw i think the bassdrum is a bit too loud

    and the people in the croud are so fucking lucky to see good old in flames !

  • Definitely one of the best metal songs ever

  • one of the greatest live shows ever

  • when was this recorded?

  • In 98 if im not mistaken.

  • Which i am, it was in 2000.

  • Man i wish they still played like this

  • The name Jotun comes from a giant with that name. And im not sure, but there might be some connection with jotunheimen in norway...which is a mountain chain

  • In Norse mythology Jötunheimr is the land of the giants. The whole song is a comparison between the detached nature of ever-expanding cityscapes and the nature of the mythical evil giants.

  • When was this recorded? Hes without the dreadlocks! xD

  • Well, In Flames was an underground metal sensation in about 10 years before Anders got his dreads and they turned all mainstream. I'm not bashing them, I think Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity are good albums with some great songs on them. But this style appeals to me more (and STYE is abmysal).

  • its the clayman tour in 2000

  • This is a great preformance.

  • i love this song

    even know my fav is Only For The Weak

    In Flames We Trust

    Limburg - Belgium

  • my favourite is also Only for the Weak :)

    But it's tied with Artifacts of the Black Rain.

    ummm, quick question:

    Does anybody know what "Paller Anders Visa", "Hargalaten", or "Jotun" mean?

    I love em all, but i'm not swedish :(

    (i wish i was)

  • "hargalaten" is a swedish folk song, and pallar anders visa im not really sure. but i think its a folk song to, i dont know if folk songis the right word but its like an old song from sweden. and i dont know what jotun means :P

  • I always thought a "Jotun" was a kind of giant in Norse mythology, though i'm not sure what it has to do with the song.

  • Hårgalåten - Basically, "The Hårga Song". I guess Hårga is a place or something...

    Pallar Anders Visa - "Anders the Thief's Song", but the word "pallare" is usually used to describe a guy who steals apples... I dunno...

    Jotun is a Giant in Scandinavian mythology (known as Jötunn in Scandinavia).

    Hope that helps you out.

  • Wow, you pretty much explained everything :)

    Thanks a bunch, man

    I hope when they say "Anders, the thief's song", they don't mean Anders Friden :p

    "apple stealer" HAHAHA!!!

  • Anders is a swedish name and visa means like i show you something sweden4life :P

  • Anders the Thief....something of that nature.

  • Best In Flames' times ever, including Whoracle, Colony and Clayman...

    <3

  • yeah i'll drink to that xD but i still reacon, though jasper was the only current band member that was in the album, luna strain was awsum!

    In Flames we trust

    Perth, Australia

  • and jester race of course, where moonshield is from. haha.

  • Jester race is the best album
