I totally agree! Great album, great riffs, great feeling!  |
|
|
|
Yeah this is my 2nd favorite album after Clayman...
This is one of those albums which gives you the feeling of completion...as if every song was placed on this album for a reason and the final product leaves no room for improvement.
Great album..
8.8/10 |

| This album and Clayman are definitely the best from In Flames. Those are possibly my 2 favorite Melo-death albums. It has imo In Flames' best instrumental "The Jester Race", and my fav In Flames track "December Flower". Other highlights: Moonsheild, Artifacts of the Black Rain, Dead Eternity. Its too bad IF doesn't have this sound anymore because In Flames doesn't get any better than this. |

This album blew me away since the first time i listened to it, Its guitar work is stunning. Every song in it its great in my opinion, thats why this album is so much better than all the albums In Flames released since then. Undoubtly, my favourite In Flames' album.
I would give it a 9 at least. |
|
|
|
I agree with the review...No doubt about it that this is their best album  |
|
|
|
The best release of In Flames and one of the Best Melodic Death releases no doubts about it.
All the songs are perfect, its impossible to say that one song of this album is medium or bad, because it isn´t the truth.
Another unforgettable release. |
|
|
|
| Incredibly good album! from start to end! A true masterpiece, allthough i can't decide if this or whoracle is the best In Flames album... In any way, it's PERFECT, not a scratch on it! |
|
|
|
| Greatest album of all time. Period. |
|
|
|
| Its a great album, not as good as Whoracle and Colony in my opinion. but its classic, first of the really good in flames albuns (i didnt like Lunar Strain, Subterranean was much better) that make history. 9,3 / 10. |
|
|
|
"Whoracle" is the album that introduced me to In Flames, but this is the album that I still cannot get enough of! And I agree with you here - "Artifacts of the Black Rain" is one of the band's best, and is my personal all-time favorite of their songs  |

Reading the review somehow makes me want to listen to this album again, after almost a year!
And IMO it's still their best album, ever |
|
|
|
| This and Whoracle, are the best melodic death metal albums in my opinion. I've been listening to both for a few years non stop, and I've heard so many melodic death metal bands in the meantime, but no, nothing can top this album's melodies. I can only say, IN FLAMES WE TRUST! |
|
|
|
| This is one of my favorite albums ever. |

| Awesome. Ah, old good days. |
|
|
|
| I'm a huge fan of the song Wayfaerer. i dont know what, but i am. |
|
|
|
A Metal Masterpiece  |
|
|
|
Best album ever in my opinion. It took me some time to realize it, but i finally came to the right conclusion  |
|
|
|
| Great leads, great riffs, but the acoustic guitars make it for me. Alas, where has it all gone... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I like the review but not so much the album to call it the best from In Flames. I am hearing it for a long time and i am still trying to find a very very good song. but i can not. clayman in my eyes is better!!! |

That because no one can see when one song end and another start. December Flower is the only song with a solo? What a shame, I expected to insane leads style COB or something. Still it's a fine album, donno if their best but surely good. |
|
|
|
| Wow thats totally 3 years late dude |
|
|
|
| Their best, I think. The only thing that bugs me are the vocals. Those growls are too intense for this album, being so melodic as it is. |

For some reason, I'm able to compare my feelings for In Flames to those I had for my ex-girlfriend, album by album:
Lunar Strain: "This girl is so cool! I really enjoy talking to her, and she's attractive, so I'll keep talking to her. What an awesome friendship this will be!"
The Jester Race: "I think I'm in love! Not only is she smart and sexy, but she is also easygoing. I'M GONNA ASK HER OUT!"
Whoracle: "We've been going out for a while now. I love her, even though I noticed that she has a few small quirks(why does she put so much ketchup on everything?!), but then again who doesn't?
Colony: "We just had some amazing sex! I think I'm gonna marry her one day!(who said anything about her having small quirks?)"
Clayman: "Hmm, she gained a couple pounds, but they all went to the right places! SEXY!!"
Reroute to Remain: "Whoa! My girlfriend is acing pretty weird! Did she suddenly become Bipolar? When did she start drinking ketchup bottles?"
Soundtrack To Your Escape: "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!!! SHE HIT ME IN THE FACE WITH MY OWN FRYING PAN, JUST BECAUSE I SUGGESTED THAT SHE EAT/DRINK LESS KETCHUP?!! WE'RE BREAKING UP!!!!!!!"
Come Clarity: "Well, we're still friends, even though we're no longer together. She's been sort of cool lately, but we are staying friends! I do enjoy the memories that we shared though"
A Sense of Purpose: "Well she's got another boyfriend. She's also gotten pretty fat. She's being a total bitch to me lately! THIS FRIENDSHIP IS OVER!!! |

Adjuchas, at their new album will it be:
'' She lost her extra weight, she stopped drinking ketchup and she wants me back again because Im the best she ever had''

Hehe I'd say about the next album that she runaway with her boyfriend quite far, probably to USA, she made dreadlocks with her hair, ate more ketchup than ever and got many different friends not related at all with the ones she had before :lol: |

| Well said Adjuchas Shaman. It's the highs and lows of a relationship and how people rationalize staying interested far too long. Sadly, I don't foresee In Flames returning to its roots ever again. |
|
|

Haha, Adjuchas Shaman just made me laugh my ass off with some of the descriptions... But the thing's funny and sad at the same time... I can't believe what In Flames turned out to be ... Anyway, this album is one of the highlights of melodeath, and it's fuckin awesome! All the songs are killers, especially Moonshield, The Jester's Dance, Artifacts of the Black Rain, Dead Eternity and Wayfaerer...
But, there's something weird about Graveland... It has some of the best lyrics I've ever heard, and since I read them, it's one of my favourite tracks... It's weird, because I know it's clearly not the best one...  |
