Interested to see who actually likes some of the newer albums? Lemme know down below
I like some of the newer albums... Sound of a playground fading is awesome for example. Here's my ranking
13. Siren Charms (One of the most forgetable albums I've heard... Save for DT's The Astonishing maybe...)
12. Soundtrack to your escape
11. Come Clarity
10. I, Mask
9. Battles
8. Reroute to remain
7. A sense of purpose
6. Lunar Strain
5. Clayman
4. Sound of a playground fading
3. Colony
2. Whoracle
1. The Jester Race
Actually, I like I the Mask better than Battles, but This is our House is such a stupid song that I had to punish the whole album. I don't know if In flames will ever be good again, Sense and Sounds were steps in the right direction...
@@griefforest1870 Why do so many people hate that song? The child chorus is a bit odd but apart from that I think its a pretty good song.
@@slipknotmfkrlocust8843 There are good songs with child choruses... Another brick in the wall for example. But I can't get into Our House- Architects did the switch to more poppier stuff better than In Flames for now, because they still stick to their signature sound to some degree
@@griefforest1870 i see
The Metallica of melodeath.
Is at the gates the slayer of melodeath?
The Maroon 5 of melodeath
At least we agree that SOPF is underrated (and overhated).
Hello. I am big fan of your program. I am new to metal music. I like classic rock (Pink Floyd, Queen, Peter Gabriel). Your videos are helping me to discover new music. My absolutely favorite In Flames album is Playground fading. I had to buy it. Your top picks are to heavy for me. Thank you very much for your show. David from Prague.
Satellites And Astronauts it's not only one of my favorite In Flames songs, but one of my favorite songs from any genre ever

For me personally, my favorite album is Whoracle. I haven't listened to their entire discography in order to do a ranking, but Whoracle is my favorite. (I have only gotten up to Clayman)
From worst to best
Every Album after jesper left the Band (or got kickt). There are a few good Songs...
Lunar strain
Soundtrack to your escape
Whoracle
Jester Race
Colony
Come Clarity
A Sense of Purpose
Clayman
Reroute to Remain
They still make good music and have managed to be relevant for such a long time but since jesper left the Band they werent able to create those mind blowing melody lines which were there trademark. For me pereonally the "classic" in flames Sound was created by jesper for the most Part and got lost by the time he left.
But if there is a in flames Show nearby i will always go there to see what they are doing today for the fact that they were my childhood heroes together with Dark Tranquillity.
Inflames I do like but they do have some smelly stinkers

i first heard in flames in 98 and it was colony and obsessed immediately so much. then i listened whoracle, jester race and lunar strain subterranean (in one word EPIC). when clayman came i run to get it and some hours later i hold the broom as guitar and i was jumping around. i saw them live and i was stunned! perfection! and after 2 years i was waiting for the next album so anxious, and it was reroute remain! i was stunned! this was an apocalypse! they changed totally the sound and goosebumps till this day i listen the album,they conviced me that they were the biggest band ever! and then came soundtrack to your escape! is still the album that i have heard more than 1.000 times but never clicked me. boring to death even though i was trying desperately to find sth to be obsessed, after reroute to remain (top 3 for me) was the first weak album of in flames. never hated in flames, always obsessed with them but in my aspect the downfall has no end the last 20 years with the exception of sense of purpose and come clarity that was good albums for a band (not in flames). when you give albums like jester race, whoracle, colony, reroute to remain and you are almost the next big thing in music and then it comes soundtrack to your escape.epic failure, blue screen in windows mode. i have bought every album, siren charms and battles were disappointing but the fiasko with soundtrack was epic, never see it coming.
Only heard a handful of In Flames's albums so far, actually. Got into a lot of melodeath back a few years ago but I never really started exploring IF until last year. Even then I still haven't heard much in terms of full albums, but I like most of what I've heard of them so far for those and other songs here and there. My favorite so far is Lunar Strain, followed by Jester Race, and at the bottom (by a very large margin) is I the Mask.
In plain view is amazing that chorus of that song is amazing
Top tier albums:
1. Colony
2. Whoracle
3. The jester race
4. Clayman
5. Reroute to remain
6. Lunar strain
7. Come clarity
a sense of purpose should be bottom 3 imo, but besides that a really solid list. good to see the jester race on number 1. also nice pestilence shirt.
Colony is their best album and no one will ever convince me otherwise
Old in flames rule!
My list from worst to best:
Siren charms
Battles
I, the mask
Lunar strain
Sounds of a playground fading
Clayman
Soundtrack to your escape
Reroute to remain
Colony
The jester race
A sense of purpose
Come clarity
Whoracle
Good list overall, I agree about A Sense of Purpose, it's a fun album. I have no use for their subsequent albums though, they went too far IMO.
1) Whoracle - love this absolutely.
2) Jester Race - could've been first
3) Colony - a melodeath staple
4) Lunar Strain - raw and epic, resembles early Dark Tranquillity in its tone.
5) Clayman - excellent, although you get tiny hints of the later decline.
6) Reroute to Remain - pretty enjoyable, but the decline has begun
7) A Sense of Purpose - well-written and solid, lots of fun tracks
8) Sort of a comeback, but still sounds a bit too metalcore-y to be a classic. Decent but indeed overrated.
9) Soundtrack to your Escape - a few good songs, but the decline was heavily apparent here.
10) Foregone - their newest album is somewhat listenable, like a 6/10 if I'm feeling generous.
11-14) Everything else is worthless to me. I tried listening to some I The Mask just now and it's garbage. Anders' vocals are intolerably bad. The Re-recording of half of Clayman is an utter abomination and a crime against music. The much, much worse 2020 iteration of the band compared to their 2000 lineup makes this sound like fucking shit.
1. SOAPF
2. Clayman
3. Colony
4. Siren Charms
5. Come Clarity
Jester Race, Whoracle and Clayman are my top 3. If i had to choose one then Whoracle- got my fav song on- Jotun
Agreed on top 3! 🤘🏻
My favourite is clayman hands down, least is gotta be siren charms
first five is masterpieces.
Im 100% with you in the idea that "Sounds of a Playground Fading" is a great álbum, i love it and i think is the third best album of the new in flames era behind Reroute to remain and forgone .
I love all in flames new old idc love your list
I actually liked “Battles” quite a bit when I first heard it. That was the second In Flames album I had listened to (with “I, the Mask” being the first). Then I listened to “The Jester Race” and then I realized what’s up 🤣
Dude satellites and astronauts is my favorite song on the Clayman album and it's right there at that point where the claiman album starts to suck for me but I love it I agree with you dude.
I can agree with this for the most part. Except Come Clarity, your attitude is bad here hahaha I’m just kidding. This is a hard discography to rank especially if your a big fan. I can’t absolutely understand why. Cheers man and great ranking
I also love A Sense of Purpose... maybe I’m biased since it was the album that made me discover In Flames, but something about it just clicks with me.

I got into Heavier metal Around my 15th birthday in 1987. Metallica, slayer, death, Anthrax, All the great thrash bands et cetera. It was a glorious time for metal. And then come around 92 lot of my favorite favorite bands started going to shit. I stopped listening to metal for a while. Then I borrowed my buddy's Clayman CD and was hooked again. I have very eclectic taste in music. But I have to credit In Flames for being me back in to metal.
Soundtrack to your escape was the last good album they made IMO.
Things just went downhill when they started tuning to B flat exclusively,
The songs just start to sound too similar.
Great list! In Flames has been one of the very most important bands in my life, and my favourite band for many years during my teenage years (before that it was Metallica and after it was Opeth), so hugely influential on my taste in music ever since. The first album I started listening to was Reroute to Remain, it was their newest one back then.
My list: (my god that's difficult..)
1. Colony
2. Clayman
3. Whoracle
4. Jester Race
5. Reroute to Remain
6. Lunar Strain
7. Subterranean
8. A soundtrack to your escape
9. Come Clarity
10. The rest
I kinda stopped listening to the new albums after Come Clarity. Not that they are bad, just didn't interest me for some reason.
The fact they released what they did with the Clayman re-recordings, with active brains and functional ears, makes me think they’re actually now a deaf band. Unable to hear anything.

1 is set in stone. 2-6 could alternate on a given day as could 7 and 8. 9 I love still very underrated. Rest are hit or miss. Agree the newest one is a step in the right direction I just wish they would drop Howard Benson as producer because it’s calling the bands sound. The Clayman remake is whatever. I consider it more like an alternate live version rather than a proper re-recording. From what I gather that’s what they were going for.
I’m probably the only person in the world that like this is our house lol
Glad u put the old school albums 1st, because everything after Clayman is s Garbage!
Jester Race is definitely my favorite!
1. Reroute To Remain
2. Soundtrack To Your Escape
3. Jester Race
4. Colony
i dont really have favourites but reroute to remain, clayman and i, the mask are my top 3
come clarity, battles, asop, soapgf.....their newer stuff tbh
I'll always remember on the Clayman tour when they played System for the first time... Dammit we were all staring at each other without headbanging at all on the floor. We thought, at this time, that even Jesper seemed pissed playing this thing. Nope. In Flames died after Clayman (Fuck me, then, I guess). My top 6 (I don't package Subterranean with Lunar Strain) :
6. Clayman
5. Lunar Strain

Great vid dude. Just wondering where you stand on Trivium? Maybe a future ranking video?
Triviums great have a tier list of them on the channel but I will do a new ranking for them soon
@@Questformetal awesome. It'll be interesting to see where the latest one lands in the rankings.
FUCKING THANK YOU SIR. A Sense of Purpose is my favorite In Flames album. That shit is so cool. Such a cool atmosphere. The album makes me feel like I'm wandering the creepy ass halls of the Forest Temple in Ocarina of Time. 😂 Fucking love that album.
I am in agreement with you on all counts. Love all the IF even the new stuff. Our House is garbage. 😂 I was very disappointed they chose to play it live… oh well. 🤘🔥
everything counts = depeche mode but they did a great cover on whoracle.
Honest question... why the hate for the Clayman remastered album? I mean the point is only remastered originals and they included some bonus re-recordings. Are those tracks what everyone hates about it?
I'd guess people dislike the re-recordings, which i fully understand. The remasters tho are great and nothing to dislike.
“Subterranean” this is the first album of the band!! I’m sure you heard this from someone else but it has a few good songs.
I don‘t give a fuck about all the IF haters! I like every single album of them, they are a perfect example of how you can change and evolve in a positive way. Sure the new albums, maybe since „a sense of purpose“ are way different then the more melodic death metal like albums from the beginning, but I don‘t give a fuck! I like many different styles and genres of metal and they always provide solid and well played metal. Siren Charms is also a great album
This Is Our House reminds me of a high school pep rally
Also 100% agree with the house song fuck we're they thinking haha
Like critical band
Favourite is "The Jester Race" as well. Fuck "Battles", over-produced and uninspired tripe.
Nothing’s worse than the clayman remaster though 🤮 it’s okay making original meh material but don’t mess up the old stuff
@@Questformetal oooooof yeah that was pathetic. Thank god they only did a few songs at least...
Battles and Siren Charms are the most boring IF albums, Old albums are the best but I The Mask is great too
Where's subterranean
You are missing subterranean
I agree 👌
I don‘t like anything they have done from Clayman on, sounds too modern to me.

Lets see this comment age horribly as my opinion changed drastically in the next 15 hours, but this is my opinion.
I really REALLY like Sense of Purpose too. Jespers final contribution and its just fucking amazing.
