Dark Tranquillity is one of the few bands in the genre that is has been consistent in recent years. Other bands of the genre, and similar genres, have been getting worse. Soilwork had a period of decline and this might be the start of them going back up a bit, if the last album wasn't already a step in the right direction.
If DT has a release like Fiction or Character, then they will be the best in the genre. In Flames has been very poor, and though their early career was stellar, that does not save their future. Scar Symmetry got rid of Christian, which sucks for the original fans... so DT and Soilwork are going strong. Who else?
What about Kalmah?? When are they coming out with something sweet? Everything they have so far has been great

Is the era of wanky guitar past us, and people are back to listening to music that's actually palatable?

Did you just imply that Figure Number Five is better than this?

I'm one of the few who loves this bands alternative side. And yes, I like it as much as this. At least when Soilwork went "more melodic", they didn't forget to write memorable songs.

There didn't seem to be much energy on this album. I constantly kept getting bored.

Hell yes! I didn't like The Panic Broadcast but this seems much better. Favorite track so far would be Tongue for me. It's a lot of tracks to let sink in though. I don't get the hate for Björn either, I've always liked his vocals and think his performance is really solid here.

As for Scar Symmetry, their riffing patterns owe nothing to In Flames. If you listened to Pitch Black Progress, most of their riffs are what you'd call proto-djent with the melody coming from glam and arena rock rather than Iron Maiden.

And "The Living Infinite", of all Soilwork albums is the closest to its predecessor. Like, twice as good though.

Oh, and Crysis you'll love this album. I checked your ratings for the other Soilwork albums and my outlook on this band is practically identical to yours. And I love this album.

BTW you need to rate Figure Number Five too.

I have no idea how you can think that, but alright.

I think a lot of it has to do with the riffing and choruses. None of it really stood out to me.

I'll try again.

There's these things called opinions. They're pretty crazy actually.

Anyways, I've listened to this a few times. Listening through one more time right now and it's looking like this is gonna end up being a 3.5 or a 4 for me.
