In Flames <\/strong>has been my favourite melodic death metal band for ages and they are of course one of the pioneers of the Gothenburg sound along with Dark Tranquillity and At the Gates. Their early albums were genre defining and set a whole genre alive. Albums like \u201cThe Jester Race\u201d and \u201cWhoracle\u201d are milestones in the genre and many do still consider \u201cColony\u201d as their opus magnum, because in 2002 their musical journey took them unto new and untested territory; all of a sudden they began a change that not all fans found thrilling.<\/p>\n \u201cReroute to Remain\u201d was the first album to introduce catchier and more melodic pieces, and even clean vocals\u2026 ohh the horror! \u201cColony\u201d will forever represent the best from their hard and heavy era, while \u201cReroute to Remain\u201d marks the beginning of a new and to be honest more accessible era, after which the band has grown stronger and stronger.<\/p>\n The albums from 2002 onwards\u00a0all have the new more alternative and modern In Flames<\/strong> sound, which starts and ends with Anders Frid\u00e9n\u2019s unique singing style; his clean singing, growling, screams and whispers and his style is in my humble opinion exactly what sets In Flames<\/strong> apart from the rest. Which brings up to 2016 and their new album \u201cBattles\u201d, which is treading new territory again. Dare I call it exploring more pop\u2019ish sounds\u2026?<\/p>\n But fear not, the transition comes naturally and they have integrated the melodies and hooks very well into their well-established sound universe. It feels like a natural transition for them and the blend works, because Anders is still bringing it all together with his unique vocal style.<\/p>\n In Flames<\/strong> proves with \u201cBattles\u201d that it is possible to stay current without repeating themselves. Sure old-school fans might not be as thrilled as I am about their new and more melodic direction, but I think it\u2019s liberating to hear a band in perpetual motion forward and upward.<\/p>\n Well done!<\/p>\n Best moments:<\/strong> “The End”, “The Truth”, “In My Room” and “Save Me”.<\/p>\n
