Advantages: Great Albumart, the solos are pure awesomeness. Disadvantages: VERY unlike the older IF, and a IF fan is probably not happy.

Because In Flames is still true to themselves, and did not do it to get mainstream and listened by 12 year old girls, but because they wanted to change theire sound. I will go past every track, telling my likes and dislikes. I can already ... ...not followed them, but only have 'Lunar Strain', you are in for a heart attack, that is why I am reviewing the tracks.
1. "The Mirror's Truth" - 2:58
Starts off with great guitars, nice jamming on the drums, gets me ready to headbang. The first track they made a video for, which is kind of bad, but the song rocks, so it does not matter.
2. "Disconnected" - 3:36
The begin reminds of older In Flames material, but that gets changed really quickly ...

I Sense A Change Review ofSense Of Purpose, A - In Flamesby
Edzed
Advantages: Clearer Sound Compared to past albums, larger target audience, more adventurous drumming Disadvantages: Not for those who like raw death metal, more clean vocals could be a put off
A Sense of Purpose is a huge step, or in some peoples' opinions a great fall for In Flames. Looking back at the previous In Flames albums, A Sense of Purpose doesn't have a style close to any of the previous albums, however if you are a long-term In Flames fan, you will have already noticed that the raw "Death Metal" sound that In Flames possessed with the earlier albums, for example Lunar Strain, Subterranean and Jester Race is slowly progressing ... ..."mainstream," I believe that "A Sense of Purpose" is the most "mainstream" sounding album to date, attracting new In Flames fans that would not usually listen to In Flames. If you own the In Flames album, "Come Clarity," and like the cleaner sound In Flames adopted in that album, I believe that is the closest preview to this In Flames album, which furthers the transistion In Flames have made to an album full of songs with clean vocals and less raw ...

Album Notes: Ninth studio album from hugely popular Swedish melodic death metal band follows 2006's 'Come Clarity'. Founded by former members of the legendary At The Gates, In Flames are pioneers of the so-called "Gothenburg sound" which has been so influential on modern metal, and have a well-defined style with which they are sticking on this album. The thick, aggressive riffs, fast tempos, atmospheric keyboards, electronic elements and strong melody lines are all present and correct and the album includes the single 'The Mirror's Truth'.
