TELL ME THIS DOESN’T SOUND EXACTLY LIKE PINBALL MAP? I know Jesper Strömblad started up this band and Jesper did write the music with Bjorn on Clayman but also in flames re record 3 songs off that album on their anniversary of Clayman which makes me wonder who’s riff it is, also the screaming tempo is so similar it’s undeniable especially at the opening verse. I’m a fan of all who are in both bands that’s why I noted it because I feel like we have ourselves an old fashion RIFF WAR! 😂❤🤘🏼⚔️

They are a good band, but that statement isn't true. It's just they have famous members and more attention. Mordkaul or Lilvøs for example are both better bands musically and more old school melodeath as well. Or the last 4 Night in Gales records are also more exciting than THE.
@@bgdtlbrs Colony came out in 1999 and Clayman in 2000 and they both share similar sounds because both are classic and great. I hear similar sounds to Scorn off Colony or Swim off Clayman. It is a natural continuation off these 2 albums to me, the direction IF could have gone instead of RtR onward. Long live THE!
Whatever Mikael Stanne took during Covid, I want the same, cause he's reached Ultra Instinct level staying that consistent and creative with Dark Tranquillity, The Halo Effect and Cemetery Skyline all at once.
Someone could play this for me in a blind test...even without the vocal track, I would know who the musicians are. It's like they never stopped. Fxcking awesome.
In times where authenticity is rare and modern bands think tuning lower and playing open string makes them heavy,listening to this band is like an oasis for my ears, this is what I ve been missing, the good old Gothenburg sound

Talk about literally mind blowing. Man, Mikael's been keeping himself busy these last few years. Between Dark Tranquility, Cemetery Skyline, this, touring with all three of those bands and somehow finding the time to squeeze in a few songs for Metal: Hellsinger. Guy's being downright prolific.
I remember falling in love with the sound of In Flames, Children of Bodom back in ... early 2000's this song took me back to that feeling!!! 🤯 The Halo Effect!!! Wow I'm buying their music now!!!!!
This is my first time hearing The Halo Effect, and before looking at the video i said "this sounds like dark tranquillity mixed with in flames". Fuck yes.
I'm just so grateful that this project exists. These are all of my high school heroes still killing it. Seeing them walk on stage together again last year was absolutely amazing. Can't wait for the next album!
Another masterwork! So pleasant to hear the signature of each member in these songs, Jesper has something that no one can replicate. Really hope to see him in the next tour. All the best guys
I honestly believe the Halo Effect forming and releasing that debut album gave In Flames a fucking massive kick up the arse to release their response... both were glorious to 45 year old me who yearns so deeply and passionately for the 90's era In Flames.
Foregone was actually finished recording before Days of the Lost came out, so I don't think The Halo Effect really influenced it at all, but because it came out afterwards, everyone will (logically) make that conclusion. Both albums were great, though! It's a good time to be a fan of Gothenburg melodic death metal.
@@thiagocalixto6101 oh! Seria a chance de eu ver o Jesper em ação. Fui no in Flames qdo vieram pela primeira vez em 2009 ,e ele já estava fora da banda. Se confirmar The Halo effect e Opeth nesse festival, irei 🙏🏻🔥
A very good song. I love the melodies combined with the rhythmic riffing. Also the drums play a mid tempo double bass part from 2:00 which I find very great to listen to. I am excited to listen more from The Halo Effect. :)
Business as usual and I love it. With all the projects and bands they have been involved with over the decades I am amazed that there’s always another riff, another beat, another chorus that hasn’t been done before and they turn them into rippers that are both, old school goosebumpy as well as future proof. Nice one !
What a bomb! This one brings me back to the times of the In Flames I always loved. Of course when Jesper, Daniel and Peter are involved! So much Colony/Clayman vibes here, wow!
If the rest of the album be as good as this track it'll be a bomb. We deserve to have one more great album of the melodic death before nuclear ashes will cover the planet so let it be it.
If I only heard this on a phone I might wonder how the hell I missed this back in the days of the good In Flames! So glad they kept their unique sound alive!!!

Ooooooooh I like this!!!
🙏💜🙏

❤ excellent
In God we trust! 😂
Damn dude.. its like a dream hearing Stanne screaming over Clayman/Colony type stuff! Amazing!!!!

Serious Clayman vibes on this one. Love it!

@@ds698 Sounds a lot like Pinball Map, first thing I thought!
there's a Canadian band named Senate who did a very similar style release called THE GREAT NORTHERN SCENEKILL in 2006.
There is something so beautiful about Jesper and Dan Svenson's style. You cannot recreate that magic.
Dan is easily my favorite drummer in metal. Every note he hits is just perfect

The Halo Effect is one of the best things to happen to MDM in ages. Super excited!
They really are!

@@BalashToth he said "best things to happen" bands that about 75 people in the world has ever, or will ever hear, doesn't really count as "happening"
It is like I am getting blasted back to 1999 every time I hear these Colony-esque harmonies and riffs. Long live THE.
my thoughts exactly
I remember pinball map song....
@@borisbernal3429 yeah Pinball Map for sure
It's for sure the Clayman era :)

FANTASTIC SONG,THE HALO IN FLAMES
Should we crowdfund a vacation for Mikael? Man is just nonstop
Yes
The best project to come out of COVID. Love seeing Jesper in the videos as well. Keep up the good work fellas.
The chemistry between these guys is unmistakable!
So good. That guitar interlude before second verse and final leads. Sick AF. Brought a smile thinking back to early Gardenian and IF.
My favorite vocal performance from him in years
Love that these guys are working together. Killer tune.
Talk about literally mind blowing.
Man, Mikael's been keeping himself busy these last few years. Between Dark Tranquility, Cemetery Skyline, this, touring with all three of those bands and somehow finding the time to squeeze in a few songs for Metal: Hellsinger. Guy's being downright prolific.
Time 2 released, new DT, new Halo Effect. This year for MDM just keeps getting better and better.
I love how the focus is more on the guitars than on various synth effects.
This is the nostalgic IN FLAMES!
Göteborg MeloDeath masterclass, delicious!
What a trip to the legendary era of 90s and early 2000s melodic death metal! Thank you so much! Go Jesper!

New DT album, new Halo Effect album, and Cemetery Skyline, in just a few months… what else can we ask?? Happy days!
Well you could also ask for Cemetery Skyline
@@mokuscsik just added them…😂
@@tzoulakisstavros5494 noice! 😁
Oh hell yes!! Killer song, as I'm sure the 2nd album will be 🔥🤘
the riffing in MeloDeath ist just awesome . unreachable
I literally just saw dark tranquility live, and this band is also amazing!! especially the singer haha
I just saw them too for the first time. Man they were good live.
Superb! this is the old Melodic Death Metal sound 🤘
Thank you The Halo Effect 🤘
Gothenburg Metal 🇸🇪
This is the OLDER sound haha. If they were doing the true OLD GB sound, they'd be doing tremolo picked melodies all over the place lol
everyone in this band has very special place in my music history life. Love you all.
The Halo Effect rules
Beautiful song guys! Thank you for existing ❤
Love the first In Flames 2.0 album but this is even better. That lead guitar melody. 🎉
I'm just so grateful that this project exists. These are all of my high school heroes still killing it. Seeing them walk on stage together again last year was absolutely amazing. Can't wait for the next album!
I've been listening to Character on repeat for the past 2 weeks and now a new THE song drops... Im so happy right now
This is just.... AWESOME! Riffs,vocals sooo goooooood! Peak MDM i am in love with.
There is nothing but joy in seeing the lost scriptures brought back to life
Another masterwork! So pleasant to hear the signature of each member in these songs, Jesper has something that no one can replicate. Really hope to see him in the next tour.
All the best guys
That breakdown into solo and chorus is...UGH. So fucking perfect, 100% Jesper riff mastery
Songwriter it this band is Niclas Engelin! not Jesper!
@@АлександрЧёрный-х8я You are not right. They both write songs.
Before two years i didn't knew in flames and dark tranquility, now i know the Halo effect too!!
Great video and song,i love it.

@@GraemeSinclair So they recorded Foregone in total isolation of the fact that The Halo Effect had formed and had heard none of the tracks??? Really?
@@davidcouzens Apparently so!
Pinball map.❤❤❤❤❤
I had the same thought haha
@@andriamaharotokyrijaniaina4851 me too
Came here to say the same thing. Total Pinball Map.
Same vibes!!!
my thoughts are with Clayman album also! Although great!
the Nokia phone survived and is still being used by Mikael
Unlike the pagers and walkie talkies in Lebanon...lol
The old In Flames vibes!! Marvelous!! Please, com to Brazil next year on bangers open air!!
@@thiagocalixto6101 se o LINE UP divulgado for oficial, The Halo effect está incluído no domingo 🙏🏻

@@11pudell In Flames e uma das bandas que mais tenho vontade de ver ao vivo. Vamos torcer pro bengas trazê-los!!
Lo mejor que le ha pasado al MDM en muchos años, simplemente GRACIAS. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Excellent! The best song from this band EVER!
It feels like the good old days ❤️
Best new metal band of the last few years! Keep releasing songs and albums like this and you got a shot for best metal band of all time!
Absolutely flawless! Can't wait for the 2nd album!
LETS GOOOO 💣💥🔥
I'm so looking forward to see you guys live next year! Great song!
I was just surprised by this and I really needed it
Me too! Caught me of guard and I really needed some fun. Brilliant.
These dudes are legends! The kings of the best era in metal
Sick sick sick!!! Thank u halo effect for all your awesome work!!🤘🤘🤘🎼🎼🎼
So lucky I grew up with this group of people listening their music art … pure love guys amazing song!
The guitar tone is perfect on this one
A very good song. I love the melodies combined with the rhythmic riffing. Also the drums play a mid tempo double bass part from 2:00 which I find very great to listen to. I am excited to listen more from The Halo Effect. :)
By far your best song so far🤘😎💝
I just can't stop listening to it!!
Massive "Only For The Weak" vibes from this one. Love it.
The new Masterpiece 🖤
I am so excited to see them live in january. 🤘🏻
Hell yeah, for this banger!
Also, those Nokia phones are the sh*t! ❤
Business as usual and I love it. With all the projects and bands they have been involved with over the decades I am amazed that there’s always another riff, another beat, another chorus that hasn’t been done before and they turn them into rippers that are both, old school goosebumpy as well as future proof.

This is all recycled shit.
Bring it on ❤
Thank goodness for backups, because mind definitely detonated after watching this.
This is how I like my MDM - absolute Masterclass ❤
So excited🤘💥
Fantastic tune!!!!
It's even better than the first album....what an awesome midsection and incredible guitar playing...In the Halo Effecr we trust!!! Yeah!! 🤟😎💯
Agree. The song structure, melodies and mixing is more on point I think
The sound of my youth! Beautiful!
wherever Mikael sings it is 100% good music
saludos desde Bolivia ,esperando el nuevo disco a full!!!!!
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent track!!! Great riffs and great Stanne vocal job as always
A voz mais fodastica do Death Metal.
Vida longa Stanne
Взрывная композиция, просто В-ААА-УУУ!!!😊😊💣💣💣
hyped for the new album these guys are awesome 🤘
Sounds like old Soilwork mixed with Dark Tranquillity. It brings me back in simpler and better times
Excellent!🤟 Great song and video👏👏
Awesome as always ❤️
What a bomb! This one brings me back to the times of the In Flames I always loved. Of course when Jesper, Daniel and Peter are involved! So much Colony/Clayman vibes here, wow!
YES!!!
Es increible lo mikael este año tantos proyectos y todos geniales
If the rest of the album be as good as this track it'll be a bomb. We deserve to have one more great album of the melodic death before nuclear ashes will cover the planet so let it be it.
Best song from them yet 🤘🏻
Vuelve la alegria .
What a Colony/Clayman era In Flames fix! These guys fill my In Flames shaped hole beautifully here.
Sounds like a mix of Pinball Map and Free Fall. Love it🤘
This make me feel like im 18 again, im speachless, ty THE
Holy shit, it's like stepping back in time. This puts a giant smile on my face.
Back to the year 1999, era of Clayman, nokia 3210 and my metal youth 🤘
Thanks guys, 17 again 😊
Literally got goosebumps from that riff in the middle
If I only heard this on a phone I might wonder how the hell I missed this back in the days of the good In Flames!
So glad they kept their unique sound alive!!!
By far their best song yet, I have missed this sound for so long! 🤘
Finally!! The Gotemburg sound Is back!!
What a trip to late-90's Melodic Death Metal era by this one brand new single !
In Jesper We Trust ! 🤟🔥🔥💯🍺🍺😎
Amazing! ❤️
Looks like biggest THE banger to this moment.
This song just makes you happy 🤙 catchy riffs and all
They're patiently evolving musically. It's working!!!
Epic 🤘
