In Flames have 14 studio albums altogether and I took the time to sit and listen to them individually, one after the other to rank them like an absolute mad woman.
Let me know what your album ranking is!

Nice to see Colony at the top. That was my introduction to In Flames and melodic death metal. I still remember where I was when I heard it the first time around 23 years ago. It blew my mind.
Those were the good days of the band mate... because for the last 15 years or so, they have become a farce...
You are right. This is torture, but once again, your choices are pretty close to mine! They might be slightly different ranking with specific albums, but man, my number one is gonna be difficult.
I remember when Clayman was first released back in 2000. Good album and a record me and friends from my youth enjoyed listening to. Now at age 40 I still listen to that record.
Great list! I plan to expand my In Flames listening based on this content
Excellent ranking. This band is criminally underrated. They belong at the top tier of heavy metal. Certainly one of the most original sounds. Some of the most crushing and haunting tracks ever.
I love Lunar Strain as the darkness and a bit of rawness appeals to me. With that said, can also see why you'd rank it lower as it does have a different sound (especially with different vocalist) and have to be in the mood for it. Excluding that one, Colony is my next favourite
Love these types of videos because I always end up being the guy for whatever reason that loves albums others hate
My top three
1.Battles by far most catchy choruses
Greatest Greed love that song
2. Sounds of o playground fading
3. Sense of purpose
Have a good day
Good job! I agree about the ranking though some albums might switch places (with next in line) depending on the mood of the day lol. You shouldn't worry about pronounciation (did I really spell that right?) Do people actually complain about that? If someone pronounce my name wrong (I'm from Sweden) I couldn't care less. Close enough is fine. But still, I get what you mean, it's kind of a respect thing right? Trying to say things (names) correct i a sign of respect.
Keep it up and stay metal \m/
I wonder where would you put Subterranean. I know it's not necessarily an album, but it has all unique songs and it's quite cool!
I’ve just been given colony so I’m looking forward to listening to it. Love to see a cradle of filth and at the gates rankings. Your ranking videos are my favourite videos you do.
❤ someone gets it
Great list
One of the many things I find fascinating about music is the way that perceptions change with time. I remember Clayman getting panned by fans when it came out, as "not nearly as good as the old stuff".
A potentially dangerous question, when you've already done a wonderful job of ranking 14 albums: How do you think the Halo Effect album compares to the In Flames discography?
P.S. I can't help admiring the Paradise Lost top.
I don't even ever have listened to In Flames but I appreciate your awesome metal thoughts. If that makes sense. I might have had a wahskey.
If you want to hear some albums of them, hear the first five albums...
Great video & discussion/ranking. My ranking is almost identical, although I rank Siren Charms last, Battles 2nd to last, and Clayman #1, Colony #2. Clayman is my favourite metal album, period. :)
will be seeing Inflames with Kreator in February can't wait
What a great a lineup. So jealous!
My In Flames list does change from time to time. Clayman and R2R regularly swap the top spot. Siren Charms is way higher on the list for me as it was the last record before Daniel left. (not including the live one) I know it gets a lot of hate but I've always been a sucker for Anders's lyrics and vocals, even his cleans. The tour for that album cycle will always be special for me.
I'm surprised to see Foregone above Come Clarity, R2R and ASOP. Whilst it is more of a return to their classic sound, (that awesome acoustic intro wouldn't feel out of place on TJR) but for me R2R, CC and ASOP are classics.
In the mood for IF now. Cheers 🤘
Colony was also the first album with the definitive lineup of the band adding Svensson on Drums and shifting Bjorn from drums to lead guitar
The first song is a declaration starting with "oh btw we've got a new drummer"
Personally Clayman is my favorite
Coincidence, I listened to this in the gym earlier.
My top for sure is 1) Jester Race, 2)Colony, 3)Clayman, 4)Whoracle, 5)Reroute.
Mostly I agree with your order. It is interesting to hear the view of a woman about their soundchanges and mostly women like their matalcore sound but you prefer their older melodic death metal material (as me and the majority of the listeners). I'm not a fan of rankings. It is better to give points on a scale out of 10, so here my rating:
10/10: Whoracle, Clayman
9/10: The Jester Race (with the Black Ash-Inheritance EP included)
7/10: Colony, Foregone (is really a good come back after several bad albums)
6/10: Come Clarity
5/10: Lunar Strain (it's more of a death metal album; they didn't found their melodic death metal sound yet), A Sense of Purpose, I the Mask
4/10: Reroute to Remain (not my kind of music; to experimental), Soundrack to your Escape (the same as RTR), Sounds of a Playground Fading, Battles
3/10: Siren Charms (definitly their low point; they don't know which music to play: metal or alternative rock or somthing like that)
The jester race is way better than the rest but all of the first 5 are good
About a month ago I listened to everything in order for like a week straight over and over. It becomes obvious a sense of purpose is where they began running out of ideas.
I absolutely agree man...since that album, they became an alternative/groove/metalcore band...and I didn't like this at all
A Sense of Purpose was the last album with Jesper Stromblad, who was a prominent songwriter. I don't know how much writing Chris Broderick did on Foregone but thats been their best album since A Sense of Purpose imo.
sense of purpose has a very unique sense (heh) of melody and i enjoy pretty much every single song on it, completely underrated in their discography imo.
their first 5 albums, Lunar Strain, The Jester Race, Whoracle, Colony and Clayman, were BRILLIANT, and these 5 albums made me a fan of them...their next 4 albums, Reroute to Remain, Soundtrack to your Escape, Come Clarity and A Sense Of Purpose, were "decent"...but their albums after A Sense Of Purpose were HORRIBLE!!!!!!! they went from a melodic death metal band to a horrible mix of groove metal, alternative metal and...metalcore...what an awful mix that was!!!!!!
I totally Agree The songs gyroscope and behind space is what really pulled me towards them. ive even rejected listening to their newer stuff
1. Clayman
2. Come Clarity
3. The Jester Race
4. Colony
5. Whoracle
6. A Sense of Purpose
7. Reroute to Remain
8. Foregone
9. Soundtrack To Your Escape
10. Lunar Strain
11. Subterrenean
12. I, The Mask
13. Sounds of a Playground Fading
14. Siren Charms
15. Battles
16. Clayman 2020
Battles definitely shouldn't be at the bottom 😢
This seems to be the consensus, and of course music is subjective. I truly feel if Battles was put out by a no name band it would've gotten much better reception.
im a notorious in flames defender and i even i think battles is by far their worst album.
Battles is by far my favorite
Siren Charms is worse imo. I can't even make it through 1 listen.
any albums after Colony are complete garbage
Bro has never listened to Clayman apparently
@@legato4550 of course i did, thats where they started to suck.
