PLEASE EVERYONE STOP HATING ON ME. 2 years ago I really had no idea what the difference between metal genres were. Now I do. IM VERY VERY VERY VERY SORRY i called In Flames black metal. They are melodic death metal. Im now a lot more educated on metal.
I always felt that swim shouldve been on colony because the lyrics in that album fit with this one. i mean all of in flames up to this were concept albums.
First time I'm listening to this song. The guitar melody with the bending in the beginning is really nice, reminds me of something, just can't remember what.
No matter how crappy my life gets, and how pissed or sad i can be, I just listen to In Flames and it always relaxes me and puts me in a good mood. In Flames We Trust forever! \m/
@chandlerbeckhoff Yeah, its CALLED Melodic Death Metal, the real original name for it is Swedish Death Metal, or Gothenburg Metal. The style got developed by the guitarist and founder of In Flames, Jesper Strömblad, who combined the melodical sounds of the instruments of New Wave British Metal (Iron Maiden) with the brutal singing of Death Metal, thus was GOTHENBURG Metal born. In Flames are one of the pioneers of Melodic Death Metal along with Dark Tranquility and At The Gates.
@higefather developed by jesper? Really? I'm pretty sure that lunar strain came out in 93, whereas gardens of grief was released in 91. I would contest that at the gates were in fact the originators of melodeath.
@chandlerbeckhoff The 3 albums that made this genre famous and thus proclaimed At The Gates, Dark Tranquility and In Flames the pioneers were: Slaughter of the Soul(At The Gates), The Gallery(Dark Tranquility) and The Jester Race(In Flames)
and i dont think ure a dick man, not every1 reads all the shit i do :P
I remember back in 00' when i was in the 8th grade. This album came out and the anticipation filled my veins as i was walking into the store to purchase this album. One of the best moves i´ve done in my entire life: Hands down.....! This album is a epitome of
God, Everytime I watch a video lately all i see is people arguing about what genre of music it is, Stop labeling and just enjoy the music, you think In Flames just decided when they were forming 'Oh lets play x type of metal, no im pretty sure they just play what they enjoy playing.
For all the ones who don't know: In Flames are Black AND Death Metal!
All you mainstream kiddies might not know, that their first CD (Lunar Strain) got Mikael Stanne and their first EP (Subterrean) got Henke Forss as singer. These two releases where (Melodic) Black Metal; everything after this (started with "The Jester Race") got Anders Fridén as singer and was Melodic Death Metal.
@MrCatFetish: Yep and lyrics like "So this is my golgatha, so this is my grave The theives, the liars, the hypocrit scum I'd slay them if I only could" or "Hatred in my eyes and in my blood A scream across the fields - the rivers weep A vanquished lord upon an oaken throne Grief inside my flame - grasp at my existence The seal of dawn is broken" have nothing to do with Black Metal -.- e.g. Starforsaken: 2/4 Blast, Shredding disharmonic guitars and these lyircs...less things blacker than that!
@Bambuzzsprosse Wow, So you could argue that Tom Araya screaming "I am the Antichrist!" Make slayer black metal? 1 or 2 black metalish songs, don't make a band Black metal.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
u fucking idiot, a key difference between death metal is the higher scream in black metal which in flames has. death metal bands are bands like deicide. in flames in definatly black metal
go look up the definition of black metal you dumbass... in flames used to be melodic death metal, don't know what to call them nowadays maybe ... shit???
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
oh.....ok ill look it up on wikipedia. ill take the word of some faggot who writes in encyclopedias on his spare time. i saw an interview with in flames, they even said they would consider themselves black metal. u dumb fucking bastard, kill yourself
dude listen to some black metal bands such as Immortal, mayhem, nachtmystium, 1349, darkthrone... and then listen to in flames new album, which by the way is pure alternative rock and has nothing to do with metal. Like I said they USED to be melodic death metal... never black metal!!!
wikipedia is not a reliable source nor expert opinion, and just because someone says that they are doesnt mean that they are and they have to be what they say they are.
black metal is more along the lines of dimmu borgir (well they are the more mainstream black metal now...some hardcore black metal fans would say they are not good anymore)
Im not a black metal fan, but in flames is most definitely NOT black metal.
Black metal usually has some sort of anti-religion and dark theme, whereas in flames is merely heavy metal.
yeah i figured that out. bands like mayhem and burzum are considered black metal. those motherfuckers are absolutly nuts. the lead singer blew his brains out so they made it the album cover
lol it was a joke in 8th grade you fucking moron, I wasnt actually trying to get famous off it. You must be really fucking dumb man i feel sorry for you. dont reply to this just die.
@rak000 I can highly disagree with that statement....Considering there is absolutely no infuence conveyed whatsoever and this is just a blind opinion, And in saying that....Well I have In flames themselves to back me up....They've refered to themselves as the kings of melo-death...and well I effin agree with em
@rak000 who cares? it's metal and it sounds awesome.
who cares what subgenre it's in? if this stuff was considered glam metal, i'd still listen to it.
let your ears decide how a song sounds. don't take influence from that side of your head that longs to categorize, when it really doesn't matter.
the human need to categorize only creates differences out of what is, at the core, the same. differences spark wars, and that's why the metal community is so scattered, quarreling about stupid crap.
@AirgunAddict256 Enough SAID. I would listen to this stuff even f it was considered rap/pop stuff or whatever,lol. Amazing stuff. Got a fucking headache now...so much head banging in front of the screen :).
Glad you liked it, Moonshield is also a good song by them. My favourite songs by In Flames are Swim and Pinball Map, not to forget Clayman. Really good band.
More people should like this, like 'real' metal fans.
