Colony [ECD] - In Flames

Advantages: Very easy to listen to, relaxing (for some)
Disadvantages: not good for first time in flames listener

...In Flames has altered their sound over the many albums that tehy have released. The music itself in this album has a melodic sound to it that makes it easy to listen to it. The vocals to this album are guttural so if your not a fan of the screaming then this is probably not the ablum for you. This in my opinion is not the best album to buy if you are new to the band as some of the tracks may take a while to get used. This does depend on what other bands you listen to. Some tracks on this album are played live on "the tokyo showdown" live album and again on the "used and abused...in live we trust" DVD. However i like this album but i feel that some of the tracks feel like the band is still trying to find the right sound for the band. Becuase of this i rate good becuase i like the music and i am a fan of the band but if this is going... Read review

...I wrote this opinion roughly about a month ago now but didn't gain many reads from it, now this song has been released and has hit the number 1 spot in the UK beating Destinys Child I feel hopefully that I can get more reads! Thanks guys, carry on reading now...... To start off with, a question ~ Do you remember that great song by 'The Bangles' called 'Eternal Flame'? The slow catchy song that everyone listened to right at the end of the 80's!? Well now Atomic Kitten have re-released this song. I heard the song on 'The box' a music television channel and I watched the video and thought it was fab. It's their brand new song off their NEW album too!!! The album is going to be released very soon now, infact a few days away I think, it's called 'Right Now' and contains Atomic Kittens latest 2 releases that have both now hit the no... Read review

Advantages: Absolutely amazing music
Disadvantages: lol.....

...Yet again I say In Flames is the best band imaginable. Not only for their musical skill and audiological presentation of the sound itself, but the sublime lyrics too. The album begins atmospherically with the title track "Reroute To Remain", one of those emotional In Flames songs. Then it speeds up with System and Drifter, containing hasty drum and guitar work characteristic of In Flames. Slowing down a little with Trigger, one of the more well-known In Flames songs, with a sort of spooky loud chorus. Cloud Connected is one of those epic songs, you just can't get the tune out of your head however hard you try. Transparent combines a large range of varied vocals by Anders for that hypnotic effect we've heard so many times from him. Now you get the quiet, calmer track that you always seem to get in every In Flames album, Dawn... Read review
