Whenever I haven't heard the In flames sound for a while and then one of their songs come on, the amount of chills going through my body is insane. :)
🤘🤘🤘🤘
It's the guitar tones that grabbed me and have never let go.
Their music just hits differently somehow, its always amazing and never gets old!
@@Howyodoinn In Flames was always about those guitar melodies for me. Beautiful.
As a Swede who grew up during the 90's and 00's, In Flames and At The Gates are very close to my heart.
Walking home in the dead of night in a cold, almost dystopian urban landscape with nothing but my thoughts, the cold air in my lungs and In Flames blasting at max volume were some of my most cherished moments.
Låter jävligt bekant. ;)
high as a kite
It's always fun to say that "I listen to a bunch of local bands"
- "yeah, any I've heard of?"
- "well, In flames, Dark Tranquillity, At the Gates, Evergrey, Avatar, Hammerfall, Amaranthe to pick a few"
Yeah, I hear you. I listen to a lot of local bands from my area: Anthrax, Overkill, Dream Theater, Biohazard, Twisted Sister, Suffocation, Symphony X.
@@alexojeda9048 that's nice bro, but, how many people live in there? In my area lives less than 1 million and to my knowledge the only city that have a whole genre named after it "Gothenburg sound". I'm not trying to offend anyone, just glad about that a small town like mine has made such an impact in the metal world.
@Vinter Yes
In flames is one of the bands that has been with me for half my life.
One of the best concerts I saw from them was during the "in our room" tour 2017 in a very small venue where only a few hundred people fit.
Nice pick! Love me some earlier In Flames. Clayman was what hooked me initially, but I was into most of their catalog until I phased out around Come Clarity.
I will never get tired of "My Sweet Shadow" - Live at Hammersmith. If you should do more In Flames here, I'd love to see it! :)
One of their best, agree!
I don't care for "My Sweet Shadow."
I love In Flames older stuff like "Behind Space," "Artifacts of the Black Rain," "Episode 666," "Ordinary Story", "Pinball Map", or "Clayman."
instablaster...
I drove the truck with In Flames gear to Sweden Rock, Norway Rock and Wacken 2009 🤘🏻🇸🇪
Nice!!!
@Vinter Vilken Jesper?
@Vinter Bra fråga, har dålig koll på vilka som var med då, körde som sagt prylarna och inte själva bandet.
@Vinter Såg dom på Sweden rock, stod i publiken, Norge rock vilade jag under spelningen för jag skulle lasta på natten.
Wacken stod jag och polaren på scenen på sidan och kollade, hade inte funnits tid att stå i publiken där och sen hunnit upp och riggat av i tid.
Men det var kanonbra!
Saw In Flames for the first time live at Kåren in Gothenburg in 2002. I believe I actually saw them at Sticky in 2004 as well. :)
3 years ago they were playing as Co Headliner in Vienna, but the night before they were performing secretly in a small venue and just playing their classic songs. I missed it :/
Never heard of them before. I love them
There's something truly magical about this Sticky Fingers performance they did in 2004. I mean let's be real, In Flames from the Jester Race to Clayman era was a magical thing. Some would include Lunar Strain in that too but for me, Jester Race was their first album that truly floored me and really opened my eyes to this genre of metal. I still like and appreciate all of their albums up to about A Sense of Purpose but after that, I wasn't really invested anymore.
In my teens and 20s, I fucking lived and breathed this band. I went to as many shows as I possibly could whenever they were in the northeast US, and they were always phenomenal. By FAR they put on the best live show of any metal band I've ever seen live. Let's put it this way: I even went to one show where they had to have last minute fill-ins for BOTH Jesper and Bjorn. I was devastated when I found out because it was a last minute deal, but they didn't cancel the show and even without the most important pieces of the band, they STILL crushed it and put on an unforgettable performance. That's how good this band was back then.
If I had to pick just one song for them to perform live, it's Colony. This song is just so much better live than it is on the album, and if you've ever been to an In Flames show back in the day when Jesper was still in the band, and they played this song, you know exactly what I mean. The intro riff is so epic and powerful sounding with how they harmonize it, and then when they break into the next riff at 2:55, it's just instant goosebumps and head banging for me. It's spontaneous, exactly like it was for you here lol. It's not a complicated riff by any means, but it's so heavy and groovy with the drums, and how Anders carries his scream over it after it starts...perfection.
If you were one of the lucky 400'ish people who got to be at this gig @ Sticky Fingers, you witnessed something truly magical, there's no other way to describe it. The rest of us will happily settle for the DVD though lol.
Cloudn't agree more
yooooo same with me with in flames, i found them out early in high school and i just went on a mad spree getting most of their songs, which was over 100 back then lol. didnt listen to all of them but i had them lol
The first song i heard from them was Cloud Connected in a Counter-Strike frag movie in 2006. Since then i fell in love with this band, Colony is one of my all time favorites songs from them, along with Deliver Us and Trigger. I'm really hoping to see more In Flames in your channel, thanks for the memories. ❤️
For another REWIND video it would be cool with some Dark Tranquility! Live from Where Death Is Most Alive.
Oh and by the way - Björn Gelotte and Peter Iwers owns a restaurant in Gothenburg called 2112. Peter has been quite active in media these days protesting the serving restrictions put on restaurants due to Covid.
One of my favorite concerts still is In Flames in 2003 at Wacken Open Air. Man that was sooooo goood.
Man, this is so spot on. This lineup was the best In Flames ever was and ever will be. This video sent me straight back to high school too, playing the riffs on guitar and seeing them live for the first time when I was 16.
Jesper leaving was the killer; his riffs were so much a part of the identity of the band. Listen to his opening riff of Karma by the band Cyhra. It's like you're listening to Clayman-era In Flames.
Colony, Whoracle, The Jester Race and Clayman are virtually unparalleled, and are among the best, most influential metal albums in their era.
In Flames post-Reroute absolutely blows.
I still like a couple albums after Reroute, but Jesper leaving was definitely a massive blow and I haven’t been into em as much as I was.
Was so happy when they remastered Clayman, was one of my favourite albums when I was a kid.
Beard is looking sick too dude!
Thanks buddy! Took me a minute to really get into the redone Clayman, but I love it now!
Time to check out the Finnish melodeath group Bloodred Hourglass, they just released a new song - Drag Me the Rain
How about a tripple Reaction with Chase and Julia from the "Unfinished Story" (her Reaction from the Thumbnail would be priceless :D )
I came here to suggest the same!
For everyone who loves early In Flames. Tsek out BLOODRED HOURGLASS just fucking awesome. Waves of black, six feet savior, quiet complaint, perdition, where the sinners crawl.... so many good songs. 🤘🇫🇮
And the new one released today!! \m/
Thank you!
Oh, In Flames. Such I huge part of my early 20s. I got this DVD for my 24th birthday from my then-girlfriend-now-wife right after it came out (and I still know where it is 😁). What they've become doesn't resonate with me any more, but that doesn't take anything away from the awesomeness of their early output.
Haha! Uncannily similar story here. Only difference is I got the DVD for Christmas 2004, not so long after my 24th birthday from then-girlfriend-now-wife. 🙂
Still one of the best live DVD’s ever released.
So glad I saw them live with Jesper, during a Swedish club tour for Come Clarity. Seen them 2 times before as openers for Iron Maiden & Judas Priest & In Flames conquered those arenas.
Definitely one of my top 5 favorite bands of all time. I've seen them twice now live (only opportunities I've had) and they definitely hold up. Good freaking break down man.
Dude, I have een living under a rock with this band, for sure!!! Great reaction, and it even included my brother 😉😂
Hahahahaha
For me my first In Flames songs were Ordinary Story and Only for the Weak. I was hooked. This was like 20 years ago now? I remember when Reroute to Remain came out I hated it. It eventually grew on me. Kind of fell off the band after Soundtrack though.
They was so great back in the days 👊🏼🤘
December flower and cloud connected is mayby my 2 favourites
Bloodred Hourglass has just released a new song. You should try them out already.
Drag me the Rain.
Early In Flames was absolutely majestic man. One of the most important bands when I was growing up and The Jester Race still on my top 3 albums of all time and one of the most important records ever recorded in my opinion, especially as you said, for European metal.
What they did in the trilogy Jester Race, Whoracle and Colony is something that few bands were able to accomplish
This is one of my all-time favorite songs as well! Pretty much nothing beats old In Flames.
I forgot about that band!!! If I never heard In Flames I wouldn’t have heard of Meshuggah. Jester Race or Whoracle are my favorite albums now haha
"I used to just crank it in my room when I wanted to relax." Good to know that out of context quotations are still as amusing as always.
Hahahahahahahahahaha
in flames were my introduction to heavier metal around 15 years ago and i still love them. love to see you had a similar journey with them.
Colony is one of their best songs IMO. Live is even better.
You cannot trademark numbers, so the designation 5150 can be used by anyone. First time I became aware of this whole style was in 2007 when I saw IF opening for Motorhead. Obviously, not knowing them I cannot remember much more from the gig than that they had loads of energy.
I'm way more excited for this than any other band. In Flames is amazing, and seeing them live 3x has been a privilege. In Flames we trust 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Oh man this band is legendary. I can’t decide what album of theirs is my favorite.... it’s between The Jester Race , Whoracle, or Clayman. This stuff rules. 🤟🏻
great react to a great track... are you familiar with the band Synlakross? their cover of this was my introduction to this track..
I’m
Not, but I’ll check it out!
I've had Gyroscope as my alarm tune for 20 years now. Yet to get bored of it
ahh... In Flames.. takes me back to my early years of metal. Love these guys \m/ Colony is one of my favorite In Flames songs.
Btw.. that bass has a sick sound in that live video.
Finally!!! :)
Prob already mentioned i went to school with some of them boys.......
No way!
Thanks for the throwback! One of my favorite bands growing up. FYI,Anders was not a founding member. Before him Mikael Stanne was singer for In Flames. He switched to Dark Tranquillity, a band that you‘ve ignored so far, but absolutely shouldn’t! „Misery‘s Crown“, but more importantly „Terminus“!
Came here to give him hell again for neglecting Dark Tranquillity. :) xoxo
hehe right he should urgently do something of Dark Tranquillity. fun fact Anders frieden was next to Mikael Stanne founding member of Dark Tranquillity. Since In Flames didn't have a singer for their first album Lunar Strain they asked Mikael and so he was the "first" singer of In Flames before Anders changed to In Flames.
In Dark Tranquillity Mikael had played guitar first and Andres was the vocalist on the album Skydancer. and then Anders joined In Flames and Mikael took over the vocals in DT.
I think it was the best thing that could happen that In Flames and Dark Tranquillity swapped the singers. XD
Embody The Invisible off that same album is my favorite In Flames song
Bjorn and Jesper will always be one of the best duos in metal of all time imo
(Also, the entire performance is on TH-cam, if you didn't already know!)
I love how Insomnium is on the background on the intro. We need more Insomnium reaction dude!
I’d live to do more but every time I try they get blocked. Haha
@@TankTheTech thats a shame...
The nostalgia... im pretty sure that there was a two year time frame where all I did was listen to these guys, soilwork, and a few other Scandinavian bands
Thanks for this reaction.
Great performance of my fav band.
Older in flames, especially live at Sticky, are criminally underreacted on YT.
This is some of their best stuff, in my opinion. 🤘
@@TankTheTech
If I may ask, what are your favorite In Flames songs? To me My Sweet Shadow and December Flower are best metal songs I have ever heard.
I know it is impossible to respond to every comment so no worries. I am just genuinely interested so if you ever see this I would be very happy if you responded.
Love the channel and reactions, even though I know nothing about music.
Some of my favorites are Colony, Cloud Connected, Food For The Gods, Artifacts of the Black Rain, Pinball Map, Episode 666, Trigger, My Sweet Shadow, and a handful of others. 🤘
@@TankTheTech
Appreciate the reply, mate. Great list.
Thank you.
Great classic! Saw them in Norway 10 years ago or so. Too bad they've gone on a different direction with their sound now but to each their own...
Ahh Colony is one on my all time favourite albums. Just pure melodic perfection from start to finish. I do like the other "old" In Flames albums too, but Colony just hits the spot for me...
Man I miss those days. I was there. Best gig ever.
And I too wanted a 5150 but had an old vintage Peavey head I still have and beat the living hell out of with my pedals instead. Had I only wished for a 5150 at Christmas....
Not only have old In Flames risen from the dead via The Halo Effect, Iwers and Svensson run Odd Island brewery as mentioned in the clip and Iwers and Gelotte have the best rock/burger-joint in town in shape of Restaurant 2112 (yeah Rush).
Go for it.
I saw this band in Guadalajara Mexico 🇲🇽. Long time ago. In a small place called Roxy .🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I met Jesper, Anders, Björn, Daniel and Peter in 2008 on a signing, got a bunch of albums and the classic "In Flames - Probably the best band in the word" t-shirt signed, 2 years before Jespers departure, was a great year =) also went to the concert wich was held in "Lisebergshallen" - Gothenburg, In Flames are SOO GOOD in Gothenburg! Festivals got nothing on their own concerts!
You make me all nostalgic here... but for me this is university years... geez, i'm getting old.... :D
and a very good choice from their Strömblad era...
Hi Tank, what a great reaction! The smile on your face and the glistening of your eyes - I think I know how you feel! I'm an In Flames fan since 1996 and I have a similar connection to one of their songs and that's "My Sweet Shadow".
Every time I watch one of your reactions I look to my left and I see my electric guitar (Yamaha Pacifica b/w) I haven't played for more than 15 years. But I know my (combo) amp doesn't work. Since you know your "stuff", what do you think of ENGL?
In Flames yeeah boy let's get it \m/ and speaking of the Used & Abused DVD, the Hammersmith performances are otherworldly as well. The Quiet Place and My Sweet Shadow in particular. Big love for Gothenburg metal
In Flames was one of the first bands that got me into underground metal and death metal type stuff back in I believe 1999. It was In Flames first, then Hypocrisy, then Amorphis back in the day as the first 3 and shortly after that Dark Tranquillity and Night In Gales, then around 2000, Soilwork, Arch Enemy, At The Gates, and finally in 2001 Opeth, who would become my favorite.
Another band that I got into around 2000- 2001 was Cave In, who are way underrated and I never see anyone review them. I thought they were the best metal core band in the early 2000s, changed to an alternative rock style, and switched to a style mixing the two.
I loved the Old melodic death metal bands like In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, Night In Gales, Soilwork the most though. Classic stuff.
Lunar strain, Subterranean ep, The Jester Race, Whoracle, The colony, Clayman = My life. ☺
Tank, you really need to check out Mustasch too, another Gothenburg band. It's more hard rock than pure heavy metal. I suggest Blood in, Blood out or Lawbreaker.
Or danish band Volbeat, Johnny Cash's love child with Elvis. "Let it burn ft Neil Fallon is a good place to start. or maybe Still counting that have the coolest opening lines in the history of music. Or For Evigt, live in Telia Parken 2017.
One of my best concert memories is an In Flames concert at a festival back in 2008.
A perfect summer night set the mood. Made the lighting and color scheme of the show perfect. The band being awesome as usual.
The outro with smoke, confetti and fireworks was epic! Confetti lingering around in the hot summer night for what felt like forever.
I still gets goose bumps watching a crappy 2008 cellphone video on TH-cam.
*crappy 2008 cellphone videos*

Yeah, I hadn't heard of In Flames before they toured with Within Temptation in 2019. This is my first time hearing their earlier stuff. I liked it, headbanging right on through.
So ready for this! Can't wait ... haven't heard stuff from that concert in ages!
That riff before the first pause really reminded me of Tier by Rammstein. I wonder if they were inspired by it. Although it is a pretty standard riff, so could just be coincidence.
Ooh man, I Still remeber when i heard In flames THE first time. I was going home from THE music store after just randomly picked som CD;s. I put Sounds of a playground fading in THE var. I remeber looking at THE cover when hearing that aqustik intro wondering what THE f?! And then som guitarrs and drums before THE song really started. I was hooked, really hooked. Still to this Day i have not heard all their album. Just to save that moment of THE first feeling hearing in flames
WoW, I'm from Gothenburg but I did not know that Sticky Fingers had to close, my mothers cousin is a drummer in the band Ailen (most known for a cover of "Only one Woman" by Marbels. Last time I watched them live was live at Sticky Fingers.
Man! In Flames is the first metalcore band I started to like, it was 20 years ago!
I still have "A sense of purpose" DVD edition, and I even bough "Come Clarity" twice because I lost it.
I listened to the 2020 remastered Clayman album, and it's great, you might want to give it a go!
I used to be a huge In flames fan, but then Sounds of a Playground Fading, Siren Charms and Battles happened. Just compare this song to something like Rusted Nail or Monsters in the Ballroom, which aren't bad songs by any means, they just don't sound like they're from the same band.
Last time I've seen them live on a festival in 2019, they were the last or 2nd to last act of that day. They were playing lots of songs from Battles and I'm not shitting you, towards the end of the concert some people were actually boo-ing them or leaving early. Dunno if they noticed or those were on the short setlist all along, but then they played The Mirror's Truth and Cloud connected and everyone including me was going nuts 🤘
Their latest album has some of that old sound again which I really like.
I can find 1, one, reaction to In flames... ( one of your favorite bands)....
And its this one.....Am i worthless in searching for your In flames reactions?
or havent you done any more??
This was interesting as hell as this is actually the first song of In Flames that I have really listened to. I cannot say when I heard the band for the first time, but I must have done it at one time or another - surely?
There are probably several reasons for all this, but the main one is IMHO that we have enough metal of all genres here anyway. So Swedish (and Norwegian) metal doesn’t get that much exposure in Finland - at least so that it would be widely known. Here Sweden is more known for its dance, pop, and some “rock” like Kent.
Nevertheless, a good performance with an excellent ambiance! However, can’t say that I fell in love with the band - at least yet. Sorry!
Damn that is a good riff.
Love In Flames. Or at least the older stuff.
In the year 2000 it was the shit with Soilwork, At the Gates and Dark Tranquility!
Love old In Flames. Also, love the use of "Follow the Hollow" for the outro song.
🤘🤘🤘
This whole perfomance is an album on it's own. The mixing. Better done Reroute To Remain songs, others might be even better than album versions. I certainly consider the majority ti be the definitive versions.
In Flames we trust. This dvd is always on rotation, older In Flames seriously rocks. Keep up the Rewinds Tank 🤘.
First In Flames song I heard was Stay With Me from another reaction channel a year or 2 ago. Listened to the I, The Mask album a couple months after that. Really liked it. Also really liked this song. I'll check out the album.
Ah, In Flames. Can't be a Swede without loving at least a few of their songs. 😁 I was a bit late to the In Flames scene, too immersed in Linkin Park and the likes back in the day. But Delight and Angers still is on basically each and every one of my playlists.
Dude !!! I almost have the similar story of how I found out In Flames for the 1st time, hopefully we can share experiences. Keep Up The Good Work
Tank , u have to check out SOEN man , the last album is just amazing , cant stop listing to it , I'm a huge Evergrey fan but i think Soen will take the album of the year for me , 2nd track Deceiver if u want to check it out.
Damn Brother. We basically had the same intro into metal. Lol. Zero Signal and not long after In Flames! It was the Clayman album for me! Diggin the fun fucts
🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 love the song choice haha 😆 so many memories of rocking out with my brother in his old pickup
Episode 666 please Tank... best guitar duet ever! Nightwish and in flames are my two go to bands, play them every day.
one of the absolute best versions of the best In Flames songs. my favorite of all time is till "Jotun" from The Tokyo Showdown.
Oh boy, back in the day when In Flames were good. No, scratch that: they were amazing in their time up to and including Come Clarity. I have watched every tour, basically every year, and the amazingness of their fresh and intense metal was just without equal.
And ever since the day that Jesper left (had to leave?) the band they have been on a downward spiral. No wonder that Daniel and Peter left at some point as well. The last amazing show was the farewell tour to Daniel, and I have seen them on a few festivals after, but it's just a shadow of their former selves.
*sigh*
The band of my youth. I'm sad now, listening to old tunes.
My wife is somewhere in the front at this gig.
Sticky is a really small place but a lot of big bands have played in this club.
Nice!!!
One of my fave bands from that era and area of Scandinavia. Seen them many many times. I was actually at the Hammersmith gig that was called “Hammered at Xmas” and I’m the big dumb fuck in a Santa hat in the crowd lol. Alongside 3 buddies also with Santa hats haha
Follow the hollow on background at the "outro" =) Good music all a around.. I liked the clad in shadows from lunar strain album more than later Flames... but in the end we got the Classic Flames albums till clayman that i see the last good flames album from cover to cover and to on top of that.. we have Dark Tranquility as well ... so better for metal fans that original flames split up , and we got 2 great bands to listen.
i cant wait this summer the Megadeth tour with Inflames, Lamb of God , and Trivium will hit near me. To be honest i gradutated high school in 93 and Megadeth is the last band on the line up for me. Never thought id have a chance to ever see Inflames live but i cant wait. Inflame is the band on my bucketlist to see.
Ahhh, this take me back to my Early teens (like, 12 yo little me, being a Swedish gal and metal head). In Flames and Soilwork, man
I saw In Flames two years ago live in Orlando and they played this song just amazing experience, the whole show was perfect the sound and heavy stuff brutal
only for the weak and clayman was the first songs I heard with In flames its AWSUME, Im sure you have heard them, but you can react to both of them 🤘🤘😁
I slightly prefer the old clayman. But for Only for the weak i just love the 2020 album. It restarted my in flames listening.
Off topic. Falling in Reverse just released a “Revamped” version of their song I’m Not A Vampire. The OG song was off the same album as The Drug In Me Is You. It’s incredible. It won’t let me post the link in my comment 🤷🏻♀️
th-cam.com/video/2nWmBJxW9q0/w-d-xo.html
Nice one Tank! Not sure if you've heard of Heaven Shall Burn but definitely give them a listen :)
Found them right when Metallica got super cheesy . Was blown away .. Around when jester race released
I loved to hang at Sticky Fingers.
Worked around the corner in "Rockbaren" in the 90's.
Sticky Fingers had a max capacity of less than 400 if i remember correctly.
But they could cram in 1000 if needed.
Been on a huge In Flames kick again! Always fun head banging with ya on a song 😂. Free Fall from reroute to remain has been a big tune for me lately 🤘🤘
Please check out Once Awake. Think you gonna like it, since you love In Flames. I do to ;)
I'd be interested in seeing you do a double reaction of Clayman original and the new version they recently released. See what you think.
Now that you mentioned the likeness in Anders and Jonathan Davids movement on stage now i cant stop seeing it. Alias live at grammisgalan you can even see it in how Anders moves with the mic stand.. they are almost stage twins
I think i have to listen to Reroute to Remain after watching this, my favorite song. :D
My first favorite In Flames song was Delight & Angers
This band was my gateway for the heavy metel and I was in army whyle I started to listem them. This song is the one for me...
Dimmu Borgir - The Insight Ind The Catharsis [Wacken 2007]
my first metal band too dude :)) I love Colony album. 3th best i guess
I Love this band! From the old music to the new! My favorite band ever!
