I'm glad I'm not the only one who loved new In Flames too I enjoy both new and old I mean there's a few new songs I wasn't crazy about but don't think there's any I've heard that are bad
they can't keep making the same album same songs bro like it gets boring , their sound has to evolve somehow , i do agree with some of the bands that say this , not a complete sound change of course but something
I've never tried to listen to them, what album should I check first? I love oldschool stuff like Unearth's album In The Eyes Of Fire, if that helps with the recommendation lol
@@lllucasm For old school style albums from The Jester Race to Clayman are all good, while Clayman you could feel they were in transition, and in the next Reroute to Remain they basically made it that their sound become more like alt/nu metal, which is still good for me but definitely no the same as old style anymore
@@glorp1539 Zombie inc is one of their best songs. Trigger is amazing, crawl through knives.... those 3 would be my top 3 recommendations. After that, listen to Jotun and Gyroscope.
That's my second favorite on the album. My top 5 are The Great Deceiver, B flat, Bleeding Out, Cynosure, and then the bonus track. I'm so pissed TH-cam de platformed that song but it's all good
It's not shit, and that's a good sign. I listen to it for a few hours now and I am not bored to death what happend instantly for the last 10 years with IF.
This whole album is INCREDIBLE. I’ll reiterate it. FG PT2 is my favorite, then pure light, b flat, deceiver? They’re all simply amazing. Brilliant composition etc. the best I’ve heard in a long time.
@dragonballfanscantread2383 yeah, they maybe have influence from Maiden in solos but come on, IF and IM have their styles of solos not the same from my side
If you haven’t seen them live, do it! They were probably my 50th favorite band but they sounded so good live that they’re one of my favorites now. Definitely outplayed Trivium and I love Trivium so that’s high praise
The last IF record had a lot of overlooked tracks IMO. I feel like the middle era of IF got too much hate. That being said… This is such a return to form for them I can’t believe this track even exists. Absolutely incredible track.
This might be the song that gets me completely into In Flames. I know they're good and listen in passing but never got fully into them. Great song they have here!
Fuck yeah dude! I drove up from Knoxville to take my brother to his first In Flames show. Was a ton of fucking driving (about 9 hours each way) but we'll worth it.
I only heard of in flames like 4 years ago and when my ears were blessed by i am above for the first time, they instantly took the spot for my favorite band. I’ve been listening to them non stop since, and I’m finally seeing them next month with my best friends. Only good feelings!
While I do miss Jesper's signature brand of riffs and solos, this song is still a true comeback for them and I love it. Also Anders vocals sound so good. I have always liked his screams but to hear him be able to pull lows like that. Now that is cool.
Yes Nik, that IS Chris Broderick! He's been with them for a few years now, I thought it was just for live shows but he's actually been involved in the new album too (he said in his interview with Ola that he was involved in the writing, and you can see him in this vid and State of Slow Decay's) so I guess he's entirely into the band now. Good addition in my opinion haha. I love these singles, really hyped to hear the rest of the album.
I love the good old band gets back to there older style story. Slow decay put such a smile on my face and everything they dropped since then has been great. Can't wait for the full album to drop on the 10.02.!
I The Mask is also very good album, step on right direction and to this, incredible...this will be the best album since Come Clarity/A Sense of Purpose
I always listened to em, the new and the older songs, but the last few songs are completely insane. Melodic and deathmetal like. Just perfect melo death
This was DEFINITELY every era put together. It feels so awkward for me because all of my favorite In Flames songs came from playground and Siren Charms but my favorite albums as a whole by far were the earlier 2000s and this was everything that made my favorite bits from everything going all the way back to the beginning. This was INSANE!!
It's a good mix of different eras. Love the heavy stuff combined with his cleans, so freaking good! And his growls are just iconic! One of my all time favorite bands, and they don't disappoint! :D
You can call it a comeback because you would be correct. Fan since the 90's and this is their best album since Sounds of a Playground. A very solid album and it feels really really good.
The chugging brought me right bad to Soundtrack (F(r)iend) while the melodies took me back early. The chorus's reminded me of later flames. It's awesome
Yes, that is Chris Broderick on Guitar!! It also looks like Alex Rudinger on Drums, but he and Tanner Wayne look similar so it's hard to tell with the quick cuts that focused on the Drums (and Tanner is still listed as the current Drummer on MA for the current lineup). Definitely their best song in a while, got to give the new album "Foregone" a listen when it drops on Feb. 10th.
This is definitely closer to come clarity in flames than it is clay man in flames. Having said that everything I’ve heard from the new album has been fantastic regardless of the era they’re trying to tap back into. It got weird over the last few albums but they’ve gotten back into a more aggressive style. Anders is best when he isn’t “singing” and there has been a lot of that on the songs released so far. I don’t think we will ever get another “colony” or “clay man” from them but I’m still going to blast this album from front to back for 6 straight months straight when it releases. In Flames We Trust!
Saw them this weekend. Along with Soilwork and Arch Enemy. In Gothenburg. Was f-ing -awesome-. This song was even more awesome then I could imagine live.
First time i ever heard In Flames was when i was a youth playing Counter-Strike 1.6 and listening to metal songs on TH-cam. My Sweet Shadow came on and immediately fell in love with the band. 16 years later I'm still listening. Their discography is legendary
They sound soooo goooood man. Love the new stuff they have been putting out! You should FOR SURE check out the rest of the new songs man there are some heavy things in there, you wont regret it!
Huge In Flames fan, and caught them last year for the first time opening for LoG. It was such a good show that we bought tickets for them again on the drive home on a separate tour.
Saw them here in Milan, Italy, around a month ago with At The Gates and Imminence and every band was absolutely dope! Liking what I’m hearing for this new record so far and can’t wait to see them again 🤘🏻
this is the in flames i fell in love with there back and kicking ass again feels so good to be hyped for there new album again easily the best music video they have done :)
Discovered In Flames in mid 2010s. Around the time when they released Siren Charms. First song I heard was Through Oblivion and I knew right at that time I needed more. Not really a big fan of A Sense of Purpose, though it has a couple good songs, but their early-mid 2000s and basically Sound of a Playground Fading and everything after it are my favorite eras of In Flames.
“Comeback.” In Flames has made music in four gods damned decades. It’s completely absurd to think they’d sound the same for that long and never change their sound. Personally, I’ve never heard an In Flames album I haven’t loved…
Tinfoil Hat Time: In Flames went more commercial to give Anders time to heal his voice and pay for their restaurant. Now that all that has happened, The Swedening can begin again with them, Halo Effect, and At The Gates. On a serious note, this is the same melodic, catchy, and perfectly pieced together types of songs that made Trigger, Cloud Connected, Bullet Ride, My Sweet Shadow, and Clayman songs that still hold up today more than almost any other melodeath song since.
I agree this screams 2000s and I'm here for it, gonna have to check their stuff out. Only heard couple of In Flames songs never really took the plunge to listen to their discography.
I love in Flames and i even like the never stuff, this one must be one of the best songs I've heard from them though in a long while. So hyped for the album!
I'm one of those who didn't "hate" their newer stuff, but didn't really love it either. (except those Claymen re-recordings were kinda bad) These new songs take me 20 years back in time when I first time found this band. Björn Gelotte and Chris Broderick are a hell of a guitar duo.
I got introduced to In Flames thanks to an FYE employee recommending A Sense of Purpose to my mom when she went to buy me an All That Remains album for my birthday as a kid. Love the chorus, his voice is just so great in the cleans
I feel like other stuff that gives that kind of musically inspiring attitude is between the buried and me, while they haven’t dont anything in the past year or so I definitely think you should check them out if you haven’t already or at least go through on stream or somethin lol They have been so inspiring and have made me want to relearn drums and pick up piano, absolutely phenomenal proggy beauty
Love both old In Flames and new In Flames. One of the best metal bands of all time and a pioneer of melodeath
So fucking glad they are still banging on, going to see them in Belgium in June for Graspop so let’s see how hard my ass gets kicked there!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who loved new In Flames too I enjoy both new and old I mean there's a few new songs I wasn't crazy about but don't think there's any I've heard that are bad
One of greatest live band ever
Im seeing them at knotfest in march, so excited!!!
@Dragon Ball fans can't read bro who fn hurt you? also i lost braincells reading this comment please give em back
I won’t call it a comeback, but hearing them sound like this again just feels so….right.
Right because they never went away. All their albums have at least some great songs
Right on Emil 🤘🔥🔥🤘 I love every album they’ve ever done
they can't keep making the same album same songs bro like it gets boring , their sound has to evolve somehow , i do agree with some of the bands that say this , not a complete sound change of course but something
I've never tried to listen to them, what album should I check first? I love oldschool stuff like Unearth's album In The Eyes Of Fire, if that helps with the recommendation lol

Can't resist listening to it on a loop! In Flames are on FIRE
Takes me back to the good days, I hope to fuck they stay with this sound. It's a perfect blend of new / old in flames!
@@kakkycoasties8670 yess!!
Any recommendations? I’ve only been getting into them recently and wanna know what their best stuff is
@@glorp1539 Zombie inc is one of their best songs. Trigger is amazing, crawl through knives.... those 3 would be my top 3 recommendations. After that, listen to Jotun and Gyroscope.
@@kakkycoasties8670 trigger is actually my favorite,and also my alarm tone :D plan on getting at tattoo of the lyrics :3
Their guitar work is a thing of beauty
True
Adding Chris on guitar as a permanent member was a great call!
That solo was fantastic. One of their best ever IMO.
Definitely now when they have Chris Broderick on lead, the dude knows how to play, he did play in Megadeth before so that's a good merit
They remind me of COB which is the ultimate compliment. RIP dear Alexi 💙
Chris Broderick being added to the band is amazing. That solo was crushing but beautiful.
A Dialogue in Bb Minor is probably one of my favorite songs, currently. This new album of theirs is INCREDIBLE!
That's my second favorite on the album. My top 5 are The Great Deceiver, B flat, Bleeding Out, Cynosure, and then the bonus track. I'm so pissed TH-cam de platformed that song but it's all good
The first 1:40 seconds of Dialogue are absolute perfection. The chorus imo is a bit of break in the momentum, but it still works.
It's not shit, and that's a good sign. I listen to it for a few hours now and I am not bored to death what happend instantly for the last 10 years with IF.
This whole album is INCREDIBLE. I’ll reiterate it. FG PT2 is my favorite, then pure light, b flat, deceiver? They’re all simply amazing. Brilliant composition etc. the best I’ve heard in a long time.
same goes to me 🤘🤘
I think their new drummer has brought new life to the band. He shreds.
Having Chris Broderick helps too i think
Tanner is the man!
Neither Bjorn and Anders are original members of In Flames, there isn't any left.
Anders and Bjorn are not the oroginal members. Jesper was the last one, but i get your point. The best in flames in a long time
@@John_Souls technically but to me they are OG. Since I became a fan in ‘02 they have always been in the band.
In flames aren't back, they've Always been there, evolving, improving
Chris has been touring with them since like 2019 i think, then joined officially later, he's such a great guitarist so he's a huge get for the band
Yeah I met him at Borgholm Brinner mid 2019.
I saw in flames and megadeth in the same show last year. I wonder what that was like for chris back stage lol
Yes, he joined them, I asked him :)
And he played for Megadeth before, he is a talented dude
Loved hearing your thoughts on this song, and yes that is Chris Broderick from Megadeth
I thought that was him!
I love Chris, but i also feel like everyone is from megadeth nowadays LOL
I'm so glad to have In Flames back. It's not often that bands are back to form without feeling just a a rehash of their old stuff. So Kudos to them
In flames forever
That’s how the “halo effect felt” for me. Like they were just trying to sound like the “old in flames”. I just didn’t vibe with it.
@Dragon Ball fans can't read are you 12? get tf out of here with this middle school wordplays lol
@dragonballfanscantread2383yeah this sounds a lot like every maiden song I’ve ever heard………… not
@dragonballfanscantread2383 yeah, they maybe have influence from Maiden in solos but come on, IF and IM have their styles of solos not the same from my side
Guitar solos definitely need a comeback
This is one thing I can live without. I've never enjoyed a solo in a song. Just something I don't connect to.
@@Magdalena8008s same, I'll take the worst breakdown over the best solo any day.
Idk I think there are still plenty of good ones out there
@@berkecgl2823 hard disagree breakdowns are overrated a great solo is better
@@berkecgl2823 I never thought I would see the worst music opinion ever but here I am.
Sounds of a playground fading and sirin charms was my favorite albums by them period....but now it's Foregone. I absolutely love it.
Best fit for Chris since Nevermore. Definitely a fantastic addition to their studio efforts
If you haven’t seen them live, do it! They were probably my 50th favorite band but they sounded so good live that they’re one of my favorites now. Definitely outplayed Trivium and I love Trivium so that’s high praise
That bass riff in cynosure is so DOPE. End the transmission is an awesome ending to the album. Drums are on point to. Clean and crisp
The last IF record had a lot of overlooked tracks IMO. I feel like the middle era of IF got too much hate. That being said… This is such a return to form for them I can’t believe this track even exists. Absolutely incredible track.
Agreed hard.
This might be the song that gets me completely into In Flames. I know they're good and listen in passing but never got fully into them. Great song they have here!
Check it out their older albums and whole discography, amazing band ! Alongside with Metallica and Iron Maiden to me best bands! 🤘🔥
Their new material has been really killer lately!
The new singles are pure fire
Step in right direction was last album I The Mask for sure 👌🔥
It’s cool to see Chris Broderick in this band, loved his work in Megadeth.
I saw inflames live in October it was probably the best show especially sense upon a burning body was there. Gotta love in flames keeping it real
I saw them in October in Cleveland. So fucking good. Was my 10th show of theirs and was one of the best.
@@calljoncall yooo thats where I saw them lmfaooo
Fuck yeah dude! I drove up from Knoxville to take my brother to his first In Flames show. Was a ton of fucking driving (about 9 hours each way) but we'll worth it.
@@calljoncall hell yeah its worth it. Who knows the next time they will tour the US loll
They will be back for this new album tour for sure. They are always touring.
This song is my kryptonite right now. Soo catchy and infectious.
I only heard of in flames like 4 years ago and when my ears were blessed by i am above for the first time, they instantly took the spot for my favorite band. I’ve been listening to them non stop since, and I’m finally seeing them next month with my best friends. Only good feelings!
Watched In Flames live some weeks ago, they are back!!!. Also looks that Chris brought some new fresh air to the band.
i literally was reloading your channel constantly, hoping this video is out
hope we get a full album reaction once its out
Saw them with Meshugga and it was one of the best shows I’ve been to, period. In Flames brings the emotion hard.
This is the best in flames I’ve heard in a decade. Love it
Absolutely love this video, Nik!! I’ve loved this band for 20+ years and still get hyped when new music hits the scene! This song is perfect!!
Its Classic In Flames but with modern production. Its utter perfection and yes that's Chris formerly of Megadeth.
While I do miss Jesper's signature brand of riffs and solos, this song is still a true comeback for them and I love it. Also Anders vocals sound so good. I have always liked his screams but to hear him be able to pull lows like that. Now that is cool.
Best group of tunes they’ve released in years. I caaaaaaannot wait for this to drop Feb 10th
I was a big melodic death fan when I was a teen. Dark Tranquility, In Flames, Heaven Shall Burn… This song threw me back in those days.
Inflames takes me back to better days. There's nostalgia in their sound. It's a weird thing. I love it.
Being a fan since their first album, I'm happy to see them come back like that.
Yes Nik, that IS Chris Broderick! He's been with them for a few years now, I thought it was just for live shows but he's actually been involved in the new album too (he said in his interview with Ola that he was involved in the writing, and you can see him in this vid and State of Slow Decay's) so I guess he's entirely into the band now.

I'm an "I, the mask" "Come Clarity" Kind of fan. So I dig this a lot! It's no "Pinball Map," but it gives "Crawl through Knives" a run for it's money.
You can call it a comeback because you would be correct. Fan since the 90's and this is their best album since Sounds of a Playground. A very solid album and it feels really really good.
Chill bumps for days, man take this lifeish chorus.. a little trip back in time. Badass
I was waiting to see your reaction to this and I couldn’t agree more with what you said. This song has been on repeat a lot
The chugging brought me right bad to Soundtrack (F(r)iend) while the melodies took me back early. The chorus's reminded me of later flames. It's awesome

They have even better songs than this song
I might be becoming one.
I had never listened to this group before now...that was EPIC
You all better get on it then they have a cataloooooooog
We might have acquired a new jester head! Welcome to the family!
Saw them this weekend. Along with Soilwork and Arch Enemy. In Gothenburg. Was f-ing -awesome-. This song was even more awesome then I could imagine live.

They sound soooo goooood man. Love the new stuff they have been putting out! You should FOR SURE check out the rest of the new songs man there are some heavy things in there, you wont regret it!
Pure Light of Mind.
Absolute BANGER. Been on repeat.
Huge In Flames fan, and caught them last year for the first time opening for LoG. It was such a good show that we bought tickets for them again on the drive home on a separate tour.
For me the perfect In Flames song is Jotun, but it's great to have them producing stuff like this again
I always bounce between Jotun or Embody the Invisible being the quintessential classic In Flames song. But Whoracle is definitely their best album.
@@budafuka All early In Flames are amazing but their best album by far is Jester Race !
@@damned-in-black I jump back and forth between Whoracle and Jester Race being their best.
@@budafuka you're right
@@budafuka Hell yes! Embody FTW!
Insipid 2000 is also up there from Colony.
One of their best! But bro… nothing can get better than Crawling Through Knives riff🤯
Saw them here in Milan, Italy, around a month ago with At The Gates and Imminence and every band was absolutely dope!
Liking what I’m hearing for this new record so far and can’t wait to see them again 🤘🏻
I loved the clean sounds of the new albums with awesome riffs though
Every single song released so far from this record is perfect but right now this one is my top. So so happy that In Flames are back!
I like the song, its got energy & heaviness...the chorus is amazing!
That chorus guitar is so dam catchy fam
Still fuckin love em homie!! My boy bjorn still rockin the les!
Start of the year and already a great start! Love it!
The Solo in the chorus riff were really fucking dope
Was hoping for this vid to pop up - i'm not disappointed. Your reaction is as good as this song. Back to good In Flames 🤘🔥
Imagine going from the lamest of the lamest and join In Flames and do your best recorded solo on the second single. Truly an amazing lead guitarist!
this is the in flames i fell in love with there back and kicking ass again feels so good to be hyped for there new album again easily the best music video they have done :)
i saw in flames back in like 01 or 02 in Philly. good show
In Flames is good again. What a world.
Love every song they've released lately. Can't wait for this album.
Mr. Broderick is an absolute legend! Such a good song!
Oh ya, right in the feels! I like new In Flames, but was hoping and waiting for this to happen :)
Just by listening those singles, you can see that this album is going to be awesome!!
Right, this Song is just perfect. I keep listening to this one in a loop for days.
Bands if they have Chris Broderick as their lead guitar player is always going to sound badass.
This is so heart warming. They are BACK!
Back to cool music. We were straying away from this for too long, awesome 👍
I’m so glad you did a video for this I was so stoked and felt like the only one lol
I have listened to this track 50x already. So good. Not Clayman or RtR era, but amazing modernized sound.
Heard them live a couple of months ago they still know how to put a great show! Plus they took Orbit Culture with them 👌👌👌👌
Man I'm jealous. What a show that must've been! 🤘
maaaaan i cannot wait for their new album! these singles have been amazing!
ive only just recently discovered In Flames, and i gotta say i was immediately hooked
Nik!!! I am really excited you did this one!!! I suggested it to you 2 days ago 😂 this band is so good and quietly has been for 20 years.
Discovered In Flames in mid 2010s. Around the time when they released Siren Charms. First song I heard was Through Oblivion and I knew right at that time I needed more. Not really a big fan of A Sense of Purpose, though it has a couple good songs, but their early-mid 2000s and basically Sound of a Playground Fading and everything after it are my favorite eras of In Flames.
New stuff sounds the best that they have since either Playground or before that. Pretty good.
That chorus makes my insides cry it's so good.
“Comeback.”
In Flames has made music in four gods damned decades. It’s completely absurd to think they’d sound the same for that long and never change their sound.
Personally, I’ve never heard an In Flames album I haven’t loved…
Come Clarity was my favorite In Flames album. this song tops it. its so nice to hear them sound like this again with a clearer mix
Yeah Come Clarity had my favorite songs, but not my favorite mix lol. This sounds amazing!
I love Come Clarity so much but for me Reroute to Remain is my favorite album.
Soundtrack to your escape is in my top 5 albums ever. I'm glad they are going back in the old in flames directions.
Tinfoil Hat Time: In Flames went more commercial to give Anders time to heal his voice and pay for their restaurant. Now that all that has happened, The Swedening can begin again with them, Halo Effect, and At The Gates.
On a serious note, this is the same melodic, catchy, and perfectly pieced together types of songs that made Trigger, Cloud Connected, Bullet Ride, My Sweet Shadow, and Clayman songs that still hold up today more than almost any other melodeath song since.

Don't worry Nik, I've been subscribed for a while. Don't need to worry.
I love in Flames and i even like the never stuff, this one must be one of the best songs I've heard from them though in a long while.
So hyped for the album!
A year later and i still get goosebumps on that Chorus and the solo!
In flames is absolutely the biggest musical influence in my life. Love every era. And yes, the new album is a masterpiece!
I'm one of those who didn't "hate" their newer stuff, but didn't really love it either. (except those Claymen re-recordings were kinda bad) These new songs take me 20 years back in time when I first time found this band. Björn Gelotte and Chris Broderick are a hell of a guitar duo.
I like the fact that the drummer while keeping the same overall feeling changes things in each version of the chorus
Guitar is not directly the same either. Sure he plays the same notes, but the pick attack is slightly different.
In flames are such a good band and I learned recently that they a few more studio albums than metalica and they are like half the age
I got introduced to In Flames thanks to an FYE employee recommending A Sense of Purpose to my mom when she went to buy me an All That Remains album for my birthday as a kid.
Love the chorus, his voice is just so great in the cleans
It is Chris Broderick. And he's been in IF for a couple years now.
I think Tanner (drummer) is really a main reason for why they went heavier.
Love the drum production.
I feel like other stuff that gives that kind of musically inspiring attitude is between the buried and me, while they haven’t dont anything in the past year or so I definitely think you should check them out if you haven’t already or at least go through on stream or somethin lol
They have been so inspiring and have made me want to relearn drums and pick up piano, absolutely phenomenal proggy beauty
