I guess, I’m just thinking about how bad the instruments sound on STYE. Oof.



They were even worse on Reroute to Remain.

I saw them live when touring after Come Clarity; probably still too early on for the die hards to start waning at shows, cuz it seemed about right. I don’t even think I’ve heard a song off their last three or four albums.

I saw them in '08 at London Astoria (rip)



Funnily enough, the songs of ASOP didn't sound nearly as bad as they do on record, especially I'm the Highway. Trigger was shite live though. And everyone went mental on Take this Life. They played a couple songs off this too, but strangely the band didn't seem into those.

No, they didn't fuck up the songs themselves, but they really didn't move a lot or put any energy into them. Made me sad.

I'm really not buying that. Bring back jesper and maybe they could make another CC-level release. But even then, they will never make something like Whoracle or Jester Race again. Sadly. I hope one day we'll get a young band that worships pre-Clayman IF.

Saw these guys in 04, 06, and 08. Honestly they didn't bring a ton of energy at any of the gigs. Can't really remember what the setlists were like

i didnt read it as a backhanded compliment--i assumed he meant In Flames sold more records doing what theyre doing now instead of making what Bjorn wants, and not that theyre selling more records than TBDM
