If you are listening In Flames's discography backwards, from the new stuff to the oldest ones, it almost looks like seeing the story of a shitty, hipsterish, alt band becoming one of the greatest Melodeath legends out there.
I agree with you. I’ve been listening In Flames since they released their first records. Jester Race and Whoracle are masterpieces. Colony comes later in the ladder of best albums 😂
I dont really get all the hate for these guys new stuff, im usually a fan of most bands older stuff most of the time but ive always thought these guys have always remained solid even with their new stuff.
Even though I'm not a fan of their new work, The Jester Race is one of the greatest metal albums of all time! Brings back memories and tears...... Respect. If I ever see them live, and they play anything from The Jester Race or Colony I will loose my shit headbanging. \m/
@Zedrik Allen Reminds me of the RHCP concert here in Athens back in 2012. The arena was full of kids and when they started playing songs from 1995 they all went quiet, while me and my buddy were having a blast. Kinda sad, kinda cool.
Tired of dull ages, I walk the same ground, Collecting the tragedies still Hollow ambitions in a hollow mind Carried my cross to the hill And how I lust for the dance and the fire Deep of the nectarine sunset to drink Spill me the wind and its fire To steal of the colors - I'm the moonshield Shattered hope became my guide And grief and pain my friends A brother pact in a blood-ink penned Declare my silent end Naked an dying under worlds of silent stone Reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone And how I lust for the dance and the fire deep of the nectarine sunset to drink spill me the wind and its fire to steal of the colors I'm the... I'm the... I'm the... I'm the moonshield
I dont get, why they even changed their style, when their vocalist is literally better at performing the old Songs (And, at least for me, they are more likeable...)
@@yoteslaya7296 I listened to those records, I still stand by what I said. Behind Space 99, Insipid 2000, Scorn, Colony itself are great examples. I really don't see that much difference compared to Jester or Whoracle, they're on the same level to me
Wow. I stopped listening to in Flames stuff after jester Race because of the was anders voice was shifting and eventually became I don’t know what for 20 years. This clip is great. I really did not know or think he was capable of screaming like this anymore 🤘
Why can't In Flames return to this sound or something closer to it? I wouldn't even mind if they did something like Unearth or Black Dahlia Murder for that matter.
Why does he sound so god damn good on these songs still but then on the new record, I, The Mask, which is actually really good, you know he cant re create all those cleans live and its all backing tracks. Now listen to this......no backing tracks. Just him being old school as fuck.
Feels kind of weird hearing Anders screaming his low growls, which he probably hasn't done in years since the Colony Tour. He started using his high pitch screams in Clayman. I felt the band was never really the same after Jesper left. It just comes to show that he was the soul writer of the band and without him, their just another Swedish band on the bill.
Why this doesn't happen more often? Arch Enemy gives concerts in Japan with the original formation with the name of Black Earth playing the first albums and they are awesome. Why doesn't In Flames give concerts of his first albums?
It becomes a logistics issue. A lot of those guys were coming and going. Jesper was the only original person up until the end of the 2000s. They didn't have a stable lineup until Colony.
Old In Flames always has like 15 guitar tracks over eachother. Extremly hard to re-create with a 5-piece band live. This song and maybe 3-4 others are exceptions where it is possible. But even then it sounds a bit stripped down
Please In Flames, do one album to commemorate the days of old: Lunar Strain, Jester Race and Whoracle. When vocals were brutal and melodies unforgettable.
Anders sounds way better singing the old stuff now but they keep on playing songs from Clayman onwards only (where he struggles to hit the notes)...It doesn't make sense
When he could scream, he really was dope for these songs... But now, dunno if because of age, he sounds like a frog both while screaming and while singing clean; he really is better at growling as of now Not by chance, they used to play these songs in screwm rather than growl, during the 2004ish era... This is really the time for them to go back to their older style, as that would be an actual change
@@Speed4Runs Anders was never, ever a good vocalist. His growled vocals are very forced and strained, you can hear it here, you can hear it in the recordings all the way up until Colony when he stopped trying to do that and used his natural voice for it; even this was poor -- listen to the records -- it's processed and layered as hell and it's never been as evident before as it is in the Clayman re-recording (and here), where he has no vocal layering to back him up.
If they only played gigs which contains material from Lunar Strain and Jester Race. I would go there and i think many people thinks same. Their new material is so bad.
Sí tan solo volvieran a sus raíces. En verdad, me tiene ya harto su evolución Metalcore o Hardcore. Yo siempre fui de aquellos que apoyan la evolución en las bandas, pero sus discos del 2000 para adelante, me tienen hasta los cojones, detesto el Metalcore o el Hardcore, me arden los oídos cuando lo escucho. Aún sigo amando esta banda, creo que sus 4 primeros trabajos valen realmente la pena, son Obras maestras.

sad but true
I agree with you. I’ve been listening In Flames since they released their first records. Jester Race and Whoracle are masterpieces. Colony comes later in the ladder of best albums 😂
anything after whoracle is shit. When you're done with inflames go listen to Damage Done by Dark Tranquility, incredible album
@@yoteslaya7296Storm of The Light's Bane and Hypocrisy are lowkey two of the greatest melodeath albums ever imo
Man. What I wouldn't do for a new album like this.
They made it already.. Move on
They can't w/o Jesper and Glenn.
@@gabrielellis5400 no
Sometimes im embarrassed to say my favorite album of all time is an In Flames album (Jeser Race.) Ive never seen a band fall so far.
I’m sure everyone really cares how “far” some loser on the internet thinks a band has gone. Way to go 👌
When they play these old songs you'd think they would say to themselves "jeez this is alot better than our new material" lol
🤣🤣🤣
Lol what a lame ass cynical “fan” comment. You’ll never understand what it’s like to be in a band as huge as In Flames.
So true !! 😄😎
I dont really get all the hate for these guys new stuff, im usually a fan of most bands older stuff most of the time but ive always thought these guys have always remained solid even with their new stuff.
stunning, would love to see inflames doing jester race only tour
oh damn , jester race & whoracle will be perfect for me
I would pay so much money for this
Certainty
@@cKy2KTK More like Lunar Strain and Jester Race
@@cKy2KTK definitely. They are the best records I have listened in melodic death metal scene as per my liking👌🏻
Even though I'm not a fan of their new work, The Jester Race is one of the greatest metal albums of all time! Brings back memories and tears......
Respect.
If I ever see them live, and they play anything from The Jester Race or Colony I will loose my shit headbanging. \m/
Jester Race is my favorite metal album ever!!!
@@jorgecontreras205 And Whoracle! I have trouble deciding which of the two I like best :D Prolly TJR because it was my first "contact" with the band.
glad I wasn't the only one brought to tears when I saw this just now
Probably the best his vocal has sounded in years. Should play more old stuff, his voice suits them so much better.
agreed here.. i'm also a big fan of new their stuff.
I love that he brought back his deep vocals for the live performances. The high vocals don't sound as good with their old stuff.
Éstas vocales son una mierda, parece mí abuelo a punto de vomitar
Anders sounds so much more natural with their old stuff.
Everything sounded more natural..prob because it was. Now they’re just a mainstream emo rock band lol
In OLD flames we trust!! 🔥
An old flame indeed...
Thin Lizzy for you
in Jesper Stromblad we trust
In Flames We Trust! (Old and New)
The jester race is the greatest. Adore this album.
emos started to run away as soon as they play these songs.
It’s all emos at this point
@Zedrik Allen It was crap back then and still is....
@@cehaem2 are you baiting or just actually stupid
@Zedrik Allen Reminds me of the RHCP concert here in Athens back in 2012. The arena was full of kids and when they started playing songs from 1995 they all went quiet, while me and my buddy were having a blast. Kinda sad, kinda cool.
@Zedrik Allen it's funny because I don't know anything after reroute to remain. Which was the last In Flames tour I seen.
You know a song is good when there is a mosh pit for a melodic and somewhat clean guitar instrumental.
I fucking love these two songs they just touch your soul.
He can still growl, sad he doesn't much.
Edit: Its been 2 years and this is still one of the best live vocal performances I've ever seen
Even more sad considering his clean vocals still don't seem to be as good as those of other Melodeath singers.
It’s crazy to see these comments and then comments from people that love his voice.
I would pay $100 for a new album like this. It's a good investment considering I would listen to it until I die.
Jester Race and Whoracle records are masterpieces definitely.
Check out the Halo Effect. Old members of In Flames making a classic In Flames record.
@@cyrus8586 wow. I waited 15 years for this. I want to cry.
Ur a true soldier, brotha, I stand behind a reincarnation of all this, with their old Spirit🎉
@@cyrus8586 the halo effect sounds more like dark tranquility...
the people at 6:40 are dancing the Jester's Dance :D
Tired of dull ages, I walk the same ground,
Collecting the tragedies still
Hollow ambitions in a hollow mind
Carried my cross to the hill
And how I lust for the dance and the fire
Deep of the nectarine sunset to drink
Spill me the wind and its fire
To steal of the colors - I'm the moonshield
Shattered hope became my guide
And grief and pain my friends
A brother pact in a blood-ink penned
Declare my silent end
Naked an dying under worlds of silent stone
Reaching for the moonshield that once upon us shone
And how I lust for the dance and the fire
deep of the nectarine sunset to drink
spill me the wind and its fire
to steal of the colors
I'm the... I'm the... I'm the...
I'm the moonshield
So happy to hear such old songs live. I was really surprised at the concert in Austria a few days ago. I went crazy :D
in Stuttgart haben sie auch Moonshield gespielt
Best live version of this song I've heard so far.
What a masterpiece
I love that Anders kept the vocals the way they were recorded
Anders has still got it!! in flames we trust!! 🤘🤘🔥
I dont get, why they even changed their style, when their vocalist is literally better at performing the old Songs (And, at least for me, they are more likeable...)
This is even better than their DVD used&abused performance! Really nice
Damn, so nice to see these guys still got it with the old stuff. Anders killed it!
Yes Anders* did!
@@J-Dawg-1 Oh jeez a typo, im gunna get probed!!
Nvm, fixed it. Whew! Now the world won't end.
Obscure Creation hahaha thank you!
Really love the last album but.. this ...this is gold !
Bjorn Gelotte. Melodic metal master, master of the wah. Fucking love that dude. #INFLAMESFOREVER
It's a miracle to hear these old stuffs nowadays, well done In Flames
It's bizarre how they changed from all these perfect albums to what they do now.
Their new stuff is pure garbage. I stopped listening after the Come Clarity album.
Lunar strain->Clayman is perfection though
They sold out. After whoracle it was trash
@@yoteslaya7296 Colony has some of the best material they've ever written
@@francismcalister7811 lol. not even close bro. Go back and listen to lunar strain and jester race and tell me that again
@@yoteslaya7296 I listened to those records, I still stand by what I said. Behind Space 99, Insipid 2000, Scorn, Colony itself are great examples. I really don't see that much difference compared to Jester or Whoracle, they're on the same level to me
I love songs like the Jesters Dance, I can picture Anders backstage taking a much needed breather
True In Flames.
I just noticed it, but how does this not have more views/likes ? People don't know what they are missing...
With this masterpiece album they have brought melodic death metal to the maximum level!!
Long live INFLAMES Long live true metal!!
This was great! Anders sounds incredibly good here
i love the instrumental only on the jester´s dance so much :3 pure masterpiece
It is quite old, my favorite. That classic guitar intro was one that I`ve learned on guitar :)
Wow. I stopped listening to in Flames stuff after jester Race because of the was anders voice was shifting and eventually became I don’t know what for 20 years. This clip is great. I really did not know or think he was capable of screaming like this anymore 🤘
"might've never heard before" "sort of old" it's one of the few I know by heart
They still go it ... fuck yeah
This is by far one of my most favorite songs in life. The love versions make them better
It's my favourite song perfect
yeahhh moonshield!! old is gold..
Perfect!!!
Old but GREAT!!! :-)
"This is one you may not of heard before. It's sort of old."
Me: Is old.
Songs of the good old time!
Didnt think he could do his oldschool deep growling any more. Very good performance
Tellement génial ce concert
Malgré c'est soucis de voix il nous a fais une sacrée performance !
Why can't In Flames return to this sound or something closer to it? I wouldn't even mind if they did something like Unearth or Black Dahlia Murder for that matter.
In flames sempre impecavel ao vivo.
OGs are crying...
In flames is alway awesome Swedish Melodic Death Metal in their Era \m/
first album I listened from In Flames , nice to hear again :)
I love their old stuf more than new
their best album.
Anders sounds almost exactly like the album version holy shit
Me puso la piel de gallina. Viva In Flames.
Now that’s the true In Flames🔥.
Why does he sound so god damn good on these songs still but then on the new record, I, The Mask, which is actually really good, you know he cant re create all those cleans live and its all backing tracks. Now listen to this......no backing tracks. Just him being old school as fuck.

this is my favorite circle pit ever
There's no coming back!
Also like tool the profissionalism is identic like the album studio sound perfect I can't find words..
Wow
WOW !!!!!! OLD VOICE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Masterpiece!! I fucking love old in flames... new stuff sucks
I have all their albums , but the jester race is the best ! imho !!🤟😎
Old school melodic was the best, giive it a try kids.
Apparently they still got it. This sounds really good. Why tf did they change style?
Where are Daniel, Jesper, Peter ....and Engelin after that?)
The Halo Effect ❤
If they only played gigs which contains material from Lunar Strain and Jester Race. I would go there and i think many people thinks same. Their new material is so bad.
🤘🤘🤘
So they still know how to play in flames songs?
Это небеса. И навечно
Dam can’t even play their old stuff. Shows you the level of talent needed for their old stuff vs new crap.
even the god of thunder is watching at the crowd

This is in flames, not the shit they played now
This is a song you might never heard before..... Sadly, so true for so many :-)
Member old In Flames? I member...
this is the real inflames, moonshield
Brutal jester
Ulquiorra’s theme song
Can anyone explain why Bjorn's high strings look to be flying off the bridge?@ 2:05
You probably looking at the strings themselves and the shadow they make on the guitar
Sounds ok but the wah does not belong here.
It's sort of old!!! But old is better!!!
This band must change name. It's band today are not in flames
I hate to say it because i hate these kind of people but YES,their first records are the real deal,the real In Flames.The melodies,the tones..
Seeing that dude at the keyboards standing around doing nothing is cringeworthy
