| I know it's a frequently discussed topic, but i would like to hear your opinions as well. For those who don't know what it's about(though i know most of you do), In Flames' music can be put into 2 different era's: Pre Reroute to Remain, and post Reroute to Remain. With the Reroute to Remain album, In Flames changed their sound and style, and divided the fans in 2 groups, the old stuff lovers (The Jester Race, Whoracle, Colony and Clayman), and the new stuff lovers (Reroute to Remain, Soundtrack to your Escape and Come Clarity). So, which do you like better? As for me, i'm an old stuff lover. I like their old melo-death sound just way better then their new stuff. I don't really like their new albums because of that. Don't get me wrong, they're ok...but the old stuff just sounds way better to my ears =) |

| Actually it was a smooth style change, for example "Ordinary Story" or "Pinball Map" sound quite "modern" IMHO. Like Anders said: "It`s impossible to write such album as STE without Jester Race or Clayman behind you” New albums, especially "Come Clarity" are more "open" to average listener. On Moscow gig everybody was singing "Take This Life"? while on "Graveland somebody asked me: "Hey, man, what’s that song?" But popular doesn’t mean bad – there’s plenty of awesome songs on last three albums and after listening to “Disconnected” and “Mirror’s Truth” I`m quite sure that new record will be fabulous. As I said before, I like all of IF albums, but I admit that Clayman and following CDs are getting to my player a lil more often =) |

| There was a MySQL Error. The staff has been notified and is looking in to it. We apologize for the inconvenience. |
| I like both the new and old stuff. But I find myself listening to the old stuff more these days. |
| blah |
| Well since my fave cd's are Clayman and Come clarity You can really say I like both even I guess. |
| Old. Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity are somewhat 'OK' albums tho. But A Sense of Purpose and Soundtrack to Your Escape are just sad. Jester Race > All, for me. |
| both new and old stuff are good ^^ |
 |
| Hoho. Old In Flames for the win. |
 |
| Both, but leaning more to the good ole stuff, mainly Whoracle and Clayman. New isn't bad at all, though, Evil in a Closet is one of my favorite songs of theirs. |
| Prefer the old era. After they did that new sound I just kinda stopped paying attention to any new releases by them. |
| Forum signatures are annoying. |
| old albums = AWESOME! new albums = nah... sure u can listen to em but prefer the old ones :) may be going to see them this summer :) |
| I more of a fan of the old stuff my favorite albume being colony but I like there new works as well there new albume sounds of the playground fading was pretty epic |
| I prefer the old albums as well, but I like some of their newer albums also. |
