Bahahahaha, man, as someone who was around when the whole "new In Flames sux!" bandwagon started, it's fucking HILARIOUS now seeing people say "THIS IS GREAT! JUST LIKE OLD IN FLAMES, LIKE COME CLARITY" ... The Come Clarity era was precisely what people were complaining about at the time. "Old In Flames" always referred to Lunar Strain through to Colony / Clayman. Personally I've loved like 99% of their songs, and I'm not one to knock other people's taste, but at least get your insults right.
I first heard Cloud Connected many years ago, and was hooked ever since. Stuff before, stuff after. Fans are the worst part of a fandom.
People were crying about every song, but still kept coming back. Not just this band, but a lot of other bands throughout new releases. Not all of their songs are the greatest, but they're all still good. I'd like to see the "critics" come up with a whole album that's better lol
People are just complaining about the new stuff because they think that the past rules, doesn't matter if in the past they also said that the new stuff sucks and the past rules, that is people who live in what they think is the "golden years".
@@death_anima there were a couple times when their music changed pretty drastically. Lunar strain is kind of an island of its own. That was when Michael Stanne (Dark Tranquility) and Anders couldn't make their minds up about what bands they wanted to be in (and what roles they wanted to have). The Jester Race through Colony, maybe even Clayman, are all fucking rock solid perfection in nearly all aspects. Clayman and Reroute to Remain are the outro to that really heavy melodic (but not black) metal chapter. Soundtrack to your escape took me years to appreciate (I hated it when it first dropped), because this was the complete tipping point. Come clarity was the last album they made that I enjoyed sitting through essentially every song. I'm enough of a fan to sit through their new music and try to find appreciation, but it's just not the same. I think I'll probably always have a soft spot for 1996-2002 and come clarity. Nothing else resonates with me the same way.
@@nazaire7 that last line is true asf
I won't lie, In Flames has undergone a transformation I wasn't particularly ready, nor fond of, but this is heading back towards their roots and the sound they were known for.
That chorus is fantastic
Common guys, you gotta perform this masterpiece live...
absolutely!
Anders can't sing that's why. Watch them perform I Am Above live, he covers up like 50% of that chorus by screaming. This song's chorus stinks of pitch correction, but it's still hella good and catchy so idc lol
It wouldn't be good lol. This song fucking rips, but dude just can't belt it out like this.
@@nensha5084 I had to look this up just to be sure…. And you’re absolutely right.
@@nensha5084 absolutely. It really saddens because I'm a plain amateur and can handle his cleans, it's a real bummer to see that professionals take "the easy route". But still props to them, because the song really sounds huge
YO. I almost started crying when I first heard the song. Thank you In Flames. This album will be amazing.
My ears weren't ready for such a masterpiece 😃
As the song is going and I'm reading the lyrics, this feels like a self-aware track that acknowledges how different they've become.
I get this message from quite a few of there songs like New Dawn. Sort of like they acknowledge their changes and struggles to stay relevant
@@Makecoolshitdie I suppose, but this one is more on the nose as they actually mention Jester in the lyrics and that one shot of the Jester walking past the wall of their discography.
I don't think it's so much about them being different, it's about them dealing with the bullshit criticisms about their sound being "New" or "Not Old". He's saying he's wearing a mask, because it's what everyone wants him to do. The fans want them to return to their "Old" sound, so they feel forced to wear a mask that to them, at this point, means nothing.
@@SirBelmerD I strongly agree with that. Good point, my friend.
@@SirBelmerD That's a very interesting interpretation
Anders... I know you'll read this someday. Thank you for being the soundtrack to my younger years. The rebirth of In Flames will signal the rebirth of myself. This is exactly what I was waiting for and exactly what I needed
Is Anders.. BACK! When? Much Better!
Same. When I was still living with my dad, we would fucking blast the come clarity album. Those were the fucking DAYS. I’m so happy these guys redeemed themselves from their last album. I thought they stopped rocking, and then this comes out. I’m so happy
Same for me, the whole band helped me through depression, anxiety, and drug addiction. I am going to get the most expensive merch bundle for this album. The art is awesome!! Thanks for everything you have done for us In Flames We Trust!
You're just like me, seems like your 2 favorite singers are Chester (rip) and Anders haha.
I love how everything stopped then the guitar solo comes in soo good
I can't stop listening this
This song is coming in my "uncountable number of insanely good songs of In Flames" folder
Who am I?
So many faces...
dressed in rags for all to see... Here I am!
IN THE MASK!!!
The jester that wants to be free!!!
Horns up! In Flames
Anders is such a great lyricist
He's good at lyrics when he's actually trying
Notice at 1:31, there are frames hanging of previous albums (STYE, Colony, The jester race etc). All singles were amazing
I just noticed that. That is awesome!!
Good eye! love that touch now that you pointed it out, thanks!
That's an amazing fanservice.
I didnt notice it, thx for the info!
And holy hell - did you get the reference when the mask looks at the album covers and the lyrics go "GIVE ME A SIGN, I'M ON MY KNEES?"
That was deep.
Words fail to describe how much I love In Flames. From getting onstage with them in 2000 at the Glasshouse in Pomona to meeting them backstage later, to waiting in eager anticipation for each new album, to bringing various friends to their shows... they're like family to me. And that goes for all you Jesterheads who feel the same way. IN FLAMES WE TRUST!™
Wow it's so hard to believe this will be on the same album as " this is our house". This is easily my favorite of the 3 I heard. Phew.
Those vocals are so clean
Dam this is actually really fucking good!! Good job in flames!🔥🔥🔥
this is really great song but Voices is 5 times better!
Very happy with this song!!
Started listening to In Flames back when they released Whoracle. I got Reroute to Remain when it came out as well. But recently I've really been listening to these guy's full catalog of work on Spotify. The more I listen to, the better this band gets in my mind... are these guys really this awesome??? Has it taken me this long to realize that? I feel like I'm late to the party in full appreciating this band's work. This song in particular impresses me with how fresh and rocking hard it is after so many albums. Been loving Battles album and A Sense of Purpose album... really digging everything. Who's with me? What say ye???
I second Charles Hepburn
I came in during the Clayman era. The only albums that I think are weak overall, are Siren Charms and Battles (even though Everything's Gone is an awesome song). I agree with everything else you said.
Welcome Home In Flames! Good to have you Back
This is great example of how contrast can help a song. Listen to how often he switches between clean and harsh vocals and how it doesn't sound forced at all.
This song gives me heavy MCU Loki vibes. Makes me think about all the things he did, the changes he went through, from selfish villain, henchman to Thanos, adversary to Thor, losing he and Thor's family, to actually growing close to Thor, helping save the Asgardians fleeing from Ragnarok, to ultimately facing down Thanos and meeting his end. There's just something about this song that always brings him to mind.
Someone should do a Loki edit with this song ,please!
Best song they've put out in years.
I am above, you should check it out my friend.
(This is our) House *chuckles*
"I, the mask" "I am above" "The Chase" & "Everything's Gone" & "Wallflower" are the best songs since sounds of a playground album
I agree, the best in like 10 years or so. Meanwhile In flames brethren in Soilwork have grown better for every album!
Totally agree!!
Damn...2019 is going to be the best year for metal..
Yep, Gojira gonna save the year once again
I feel like this is said every year
Soilwork, Jinjer, Nemesis... :)
soilwork, children of bodom, slipknot, dream theater, killswitch engage, alter bridge, gojira, and more to come. This year will be amazing.
aman bhakta spoiler alert, it isn’t.
In Flames We Trust...
This time around.
I'm listening in Flames over 15 years and guess what.... they will never get old.... F*CK THIS IS SO GOOD
Love so much..In Flames.. i am with the mask too..with you guys.. does not matter the album
I got a really nice morning today:)!
Jesus christ. I'm 31 and thought I was a teenager again. In Flames started me down my metalhead path.
This is just like the In Flames I remember, but it's grown up.
I'm all warm and fuzzy inside now.
SAME
me too
34... Not quite there yet. But a serious step towards it for sure
@@gustavosanchez1146 je suis français du Québec pis j'aime le métal mon album préféré clayman just beautiful
Same. I am 29 and IF taught me that metal was not scary and annoying but fucking amazing. Its all i listen to these days.
I love everything from In flames. Every direction they go in, I'm 100% on board. Love this band! Thanks for continuing to make such great music!
Why is the band not more popular? Because they speak the truth. It scares most people. I am not afraid. Thank you. You have set my heart on fire once again.
As usual, In Flames know how to write amazing choruses, both in terms of lyrics and music.
same year, brings back the memories of the first time I've listened CC or ASOP
NOW THIS IS THE IN FLAMES WE WANTED. THANKS
Artists don't write music for you. They'll write the music they damn well please. Grow up.
@@SirBelmerD Hey you little butthurt keyboard warrior, crawl back to the hole you came from and let us enjoy the real In Flames, kay?
@@senqt for real now, you've seen all these crybabies? course you have, u're one of em, stop hating or find another band, simple as that.
No it is not they can still do better, still to much of crap influenced in flames in this.
This is so fucking GOOOOD!!! 🖤🖤🖤
Sounds like the jester finally tunnelled his way out of that prison with a teaspoon 😂
I'm digging this. It's like a really good balance between the old and new In Flames.
If you watch closely the graphics you can see that they refer to a lot of (or every) In Flames album in this lyrics video. This is amazing and I love this song.
Sounds like Old
In Flames with Come Clarity / A Sense of Purpose
No joke, it’s closest to the old In Flames that they’ve come in a long time. Some parts I’m still not a fan of, but at least it’s a step in the right direction.
Timmorrisjr none of their albums past ASOP (and a bit of SOAPF) or future ones will have a special place in my heart. No Jesper, no Daniel, no Peter. But yeah, its the closest they ve come to their older style
Let them make their own music. Anders even said he doesn't care what people say about their newer stuff. Granted that was about the time of Sounds of a Playground Fading.
Hybrid Spektar sure, thats what I say too. It doesnt take away my right to dont like their newer music though. I still respect Andrers as an artist and even look up to him. He is true to his art. It just doesnt appeal to me
@@KinkyNothing Wish more people would think like you do. Most folk i encounter take it as a personal attack. Personally i love their newer stuff.
Brawlerbabe yeah, problem is whatever "I" like is the best so if they make something "I" don't like, is a sell out. That's the root problem with people. Yeah I don't like their newer music but A, there's always the old albums and B, it doesn't mean they don't wholeheartedly write music anymore. People have different tastes and you can't expect a band to write the same music for 30 years. I also disagree with Jesper who I massively respect suggesting they change the band's name. This is In Flames. The same guys (yeah I know..) who've been making music for so long. They're still united and strong. Well, apart from 3 of the OG members but you get the point haha
thank you so much in flames, I am actually close to crying. hearing that sound again in a fresh new way just makes me so happy
This song gets better every time I play it.
Ohhhhhhh the return of in flames in all its glory
in Austria on 1st Place in the Charts :) congrats guys !
I'm in love with this song. ❤️
Wait to hear Voices and you couldnt remove it from your head
Surely not on their pre-2000 level, but still appreciate that they are back in 2006. Great song
In Flames is FUCKING BACK! This is the sound I've been missing for so long!
In Flames is back ! \m/
I think this song means a lot...
In Flames we trust!
Amazing how they can change their sound on every cd so well.
I love the song so much and damn, I LOVE this music video! It’s really pretty and aaaaahhhh
Didn't realize children were allowed to have yt accounts.
Holy shit! i just can't get enough like the song is built so perfectly
Fucking awesome. This is the in flames we've been waiting for.
In Flames are back!!! Superb energy guys!!!
Just when I thought the flame will never burn again you hit me with this amazing song. I pray all the gods this album to be what we all need to keep trusting this band so lost on his way to evolution.
WHOOOOA!!!! THIS IS SO COOL!!!! SWEET MEMORIES!!!
I love this sound. Some people prefer the super old In Flames albums, but Clayman, Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity were my personal favs from these guys. This feels similar enough to that sound again. I personally don't mind if they put a few tracks in every album that experiment with a new sound, it was just sad when they didn't include a single song on an album that stuck to their roots (or, if not their roots, at least their most popular albums).
This was AWESOME
Jim Carrey approves.
André Barbosa Alrighty then
ALRIGHTY THEN
You mean James McAvoy
Still waiting for Ace Ventura 3
@@PuppyMonkeyBabyy 🙏
I've been listening to In Flames since the early 2000s, and I think this might be my favorite song they've ever put out.
The best song for the new album \m/
Every time I'm jamming this in my car it reminds me how i felt when i first discovered in flames in highschool. I feel all giddy inside now!!!!
The old in flames!!! Yeaaa
Obviously this is still a million miles away from anything pre Clayman, but I think we've accepted that those days are long gone. But saying that, this song isn't half bad. The chorus is a bit weak but the verses remind me of Reroute and we're starting to hear guitar solos again, even if they are quite short. Feeling optimistic about this album.
Shivs Bjorn still uses a lot of solos, they’re just pretty cruddy and very similar usually, since he’s Kirk Wahmett these days
Give me another solo similar to The New World and I'll die a happy man
@@justpassingthrough8547 My absolute favorite In Flames solo of all time!
Lord of Diamonds nothing, the joke is Kirk uses too much wah usually.
Just Passing Through that’d be sick as hell. I miss the “inflames-y” soft parts, think of the intro to SOAPF or Fear is the Weakness, or Square Nothing, or the bridge/solo to Zombie Inc.
I think the things that made the “inflames-y” sound are mostly lacking these days- like harmonies, the soft parts with that sound, and the duels between Bjorn and Jesper, or just the contrast between super heavy rhythm and cool leads. It still sounds like IF, I just wish theyd bring back some of those elements.
In my view, its one of their best song ever. i hear it when i wake up and go to bed! the lyrics are awesome!!!
Cant get enough of this song......YES!!!!
I get that feeling i had standing in the middle of the crowd with them opening with Sounds of a playground fading
Nik Nocturnal has gotta be here already

Renegate 96 nice grammar lmao
Renegate 96 that’s just, like, your opinion, man. Everyone has them.
@Renegate 96 but this song is what i would label as a 'Melodeath" song
@Renegate 96 lol, just because In Flames stared incorporating clean vocals into their songs 20 years ago doesn't make them bad. They've made plenty of great songs since 2000. The Jester Race was a great album but you can't possibly expect them to make same music over and over again for 20+ years. Just let it go and get over it.
"I, the mask" is a nice song and I welcome this sort of content, I won't be salty about spending my money on this.
I was getting bored with music then I found in flames 🔥
i feel the Flames again!!!!
Wow this is amazing in flames. I am loving it
Sounds like mid 00's melodic death/metalcore, which is kinda cool, to be fair
I mean, In Flames was a Melodic death metal band in the 2000s and sounded similar to this.
@@againstalltyrants9001 they were a melodeath band in the 90s
@@norgepalm7315 even jesper doesn't write melodeath anymore
@@againstalltyrants9001 they certainly sounded similar. But I have to agree, "mid-career" In Flames (Reroute to Remain up to A Sense of Purpose) was a hybrid of melodeath and more alternative metal with a bit of numetal thrown in. This song on the other hand, if I didn't know who it was, I would think it was an early 2000s American metalcore band. Again, not a bad thing in my opinion; I love good metalcore too.
In my opinion All Metalcore bands got inspired by 2000s In Flames and Soilwork sound
I like how most of the lyrics are about the pissed off fans and ex-fans lol
In Flames, I Trust! \m/
More like they're atoning for making straight up garbage since 2011. Good to see them reflect. Finally looking forward to another In Flames release after almost 10 years
I feel you. I hate it, when they all complain About old or new In Flames bruh xD. So unnecessary seriously
@@Sai-P Atoning? There's nothing to atone for. If you believe music is expression, how the fuck do you expect bands making real music to not change? Do you believe you can live through this life without changing? You guys get the "sellout" label backwards. You can't have it both ways. "Metal is real music!" "Muh metal band changed! Sellout!" Do you honestly think these guys were hurting financially when they were making the "good stuff," as you'd put it? Hardly. They didn't change for money. They changed because *THEY* changed. Want to know what kind of music never changes? Pop music. Food for thought.
@@x3wildcard C'mon, they made some some bad albums... I, The Mask was probably the best overall since Come Clarity. Alt-metal clearly isn't a money making genre, so I agree that they didn't change for the sake of money. The problem is, their recent albums came across as lazy. I think that's the underline issue more so than the stylistic change.
But, you're right about them not owing the fans anything. It'd just be nice if they had more oomph in their music, stayed true to who they were for a long time.
@@FrogWalrus You're missing the point. They ARE staying true to what they are. You guys don't want them to change. You want them to sell out to the "old way". To do something that's not new (which is the desire of all artists btw) just because you like it better. That's the definition of selling out.
They released some bad/lazy tracks? Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion, man.
Sick of all these bands getting called sellouts by hypocrites who've never had an artistic bone in their body.

Great!! In Flames we Trust!!
So hopeful for the new album. Great song!!
That Sounds really nice, well done
Saludos cordiales desde Guadalajara Jalisco México buenos temas
In the face of old In flames... This one is a good one 🤟
In Flames 🔥 🔥🔥
Damn, that's two solid tracks from the new album. Is In Flames back?
This finally sounds like In Flames again!
This reminds me of old in flames but still different in a good way
The old Inflames style is back!.
P E R F E C T I O N
In Flames We Trust!!!
This song just returned some my faith in In Flames sounding actually great again, hoping that the whole album will be as awesome.
Дождался все таки. Russia with In Flames.
You can't evolve from your prime days and overcome it. Evolution is negative in the metal scene. All bands straying away from what they were discovered as is a target of hate. When you're in the game so long you can only stay on one path for so long. Eventually you need to experiment because humans get's older, gains new experiences and perspectives which feeds creation. Love the band for what it was and support whatever they become. It's always the fans shitting on the band and not the band shitting the fans for not having their backs through necessary changes.
Bands are open minded, fans (especially hardcore) are narrow minded. A problem with having a favorite band. I try not to have favorites so I can be less demanding and more accepting of the new directions taken. Always looking on the bright side. With all that said, nice song and the video is fire.
Compared to what are generally considered masterpieces of In Flames (Whoracle,Clayman,Colony,Jester Race) the last few albums felt way too off the course (which is melodic death),and to me it was too whiny and soft. This,however,stands VERY close (Imo). Its an amazing song,the album is alright even with the This is our House or whatever the fuck its called. Experimenting is good but I understand those "hardcore fans" for wanting an album similar to the old ones. Hell I wished for that too and I think this is a step in the right direction.
@@fenrizwolfbroodx5322 I understand the hardcore fans too. I have my prefered albums too. But love is suppose to be unconditional so If I can say I love something I have to accept it's flaws and hope for the best future :) Now I don't love In Flames, I appreciate them. But being an open minded fan of music I try to adopt my mindset to what I hear to appreciate it as best I can. And to understand what makes others like it more than I do. Band before myself. If I don't enjoy the direction of a band enough I always have to older stuff and my love doesn't change unless the band does something wreckless outside the music.
LETS GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Praise
Fantastic track
In Flames is back!!! This whole new album is fantastic.
This sounds awesome :D Reminds me so much of 'Come Clarity', the main riff reminds me of the song 'Leeches' ;)
In Flames we trust 🤘
Ánders for Swedish President 🤘
Sweden is a monarchy lol.
In flames come back... with all!
People are saying this might be about the band themselves, but the only thing I can think about is Majora's Mask.
2019? anyone?
Clearly. Its a video from 2019...
Just a theory, but this song may be about themselves. So hear me out. At some point they show pictures of their earlier albums. "The jester that wants to be free" speaks by itself. While the mask stares at the albums, it says "give me a sign, I'm on my knees, seems that u have forgotten me". I really think they are talking about their downfall and new arise, considering the new style adopted which is similar to the old one.
They even talk about a "downward spiral", which is mentioned in the lyrics of one of their earlier songs (says something like "all in the name of the downward spiral")
This is what I needed, I connect with this song at this moment in my life.
I truly hope we get to see this one live some day...
