In Flames - Worlds within the Margin

© 1997 Nuclear Blast
(In Flames)

Raindrop hits the leaf changing it's position slightly on the street
next to polls of monotonous waters He walks Slipping feet from
steps at random He falls

In the space of between his body and the ground
comets cast off their names stellar neurones misfire

Witnesses
inhale the seed
and spit out a million branches

Buds abloom in all directions
from which events occur
relations and virused meetings
catch fire and explode
In the margin of butterfly wings
entire cycles of evolution
outplayed and faded
sparked away back into
vacuum-filled nirvana

Between the two of my eyes
feverish fractal scar
Dance like they were on drugs
peyote labyrinth re-mapped exits
A hasty blink
and a million life-to-comes
will never be the same
as they never were

In the kinetic energy of a moving fist
lies a birth-machine for a parallel universe

With the first movement in organic scap
came a bouquet of alternative answers
all different multiplied and re-divided

Coded in the spinal cord of a trilobite
written between the legs on the Meganeura
suburban city maps and dormant dictator semen
marked their way through time

@atnighthawk i can`t see their old stuff in sounds of a playground fading, srsly, too me that album is even softer then asop, especially the screaming, and they tried to implement the old sound and succeded( in my opinion ) in come clarity, anyway In Flames We Trust!

[Ih8youlube]

How about you all shut up and enjoy the music! IN FLAMES WE TRUST!

@atnighthawk It's just a matter of when I found out about them. I discovered them after Come Clarity came out. And to make things clear I did NOT hear about them from Guitar Hero. It was just timing. But yeah the In Flames that I knew from the beginning was their newer sound. So to me this older stuff is what I'm not familiar with. So it's not a matter of like and dislike, it's just what I associate In Flames with when I hear their music.

[atnighthawk]

@BitchingHour Wow, opinions are good but we of absolutely differing opinions. While I quite like "most" of the the albums you think are their best period. I much prefer the earlier stuff. Taken in the context of the entire album, bar the odd great song I think A Sense of Purpose and Come Clarity are their weakest albums, Sounds of a playground fading seems like they are trying to incorporate older In Flames styling with the newer sound, so its given hope to many of the older fans.

[PamperoHuayra]

@DTOSX666 In my opinion, Come Clarity is the worst album hands down. Despite I don't like at all In Flames' sound since Come Clarity, I like at least one or two songs per album since that.

[PamperoHuayra]

@BitchingHour All that is only matter of tastes to me. Thanks for giving your opinion.

[BitchingHour]

@PamperoHuayra I heavily disagree. Honestly this new sound gives them their own edge. HOWEVER I was not pleased with Sounds of a Playground Fading. In my opinion Reroute to Remain, Soundtrack to Your Escape, Come Clarity, and A Sense of Purpose was their best period.
