This song is my kryptonite right now. Soo catchy and infectious.

That bass riff in cynosure is so DOPE. End the transmission is an awesome ending to the album. Drums are on point to. Clean and crisp

While I do miss Jesper's signature brand of riffs and solos, this song is still a true comeback for them and I love it. Also Anders vocals sound so good. I have always liked his screams but to hear him be able to pull lows like that. Now that is cool.

Yes Nik, that IS Chris Broderick! He's been with them for a few years now, I thought it was just for live shows but he's actually been involved in the new album too (he said in his interview with Ola that he was involved in the writing, and you can see him in this vid and State of Slow Decay's) so I guess he's entirely into the band now. Good addition in my opinion haha. I love these singles, really hyped to hear the rest of the album.

Watched In Flames live some weeks ago, they are back!!!. Also looks that Chris brought some new fresh air to the band.

In flames aren't back, they've Always been there, evolving, improving

It’s cool to see Chris Broderick in this band, loved his work in Megadeth.

Yes, that is Chris Broderick on Guitar!! It also looks like Alex Rudinger on Drums, but he and Tanner Wayne look similar so it's hard to tell with the quick cuts that focused on the Drums (and Tanner is still listed as the current Drummer on MA for the current lineup). Definitely their best song in a while, got to give the new album "Foregone" a listen when it drops on Feb. 10th.

I only heard of in flames like 4 years ago and when my ears were blessed by i am above for the first time, they instantly took the spot for my favorite band. I’ve been listening to them non stop since, and I’m finally seeing them next month with my best friends. Only good feelings!

The drums hit you in the beginning. Then the chourus is so good! And a guitar solo by Chris is fu*king awesome! It's a complete In Flames song! I felt exactly the same when the chourus hit me 😅👏

You can call it a comeback because you would be correct. Fan since the 90's and this is their best album since Sounds of a Playground. A very solid album and it feels really really good.

Saw them with Meshugga and it was one of the best shows I’ve been to, period. In Flames brings the emotion hard.

This is the best in flames I’ve heard in a decade. Love it

I The Mask is also very good album, step on right direction and to this, incredible...this will be the best album since Come Clarity/A Sense of Purpose

Tinfoil Hat Time: In Flames went more commercial to give Anders time to heal his voice and pay for their restaurant. Now that all that has happened, The Swedening can begin again with them, Halo Effect, and At The Gates. On a serious note, this is the same melodic, catchy, and perfectly pieced together types of songs that made Trigger, Cloud Connected, Bullet Ride, My Sweet Shadow, and Clayman songs that still hold up today more than almost any other melodeath song since.

i literally was reloading your channel constantly, hoping this video is out hope we get a full album reaction once its out

Inflames takes me back to better days. There's nostalgia in their sound. It's a weird thing. I love it.

Being a fan since their first album, I'm happy to see them come back like that.

I was a big melodic death fan when I was a teen. Dark Tranquility, In Flames, Heaven Shall Burn… This song threw me back in those days.

This was DEFINITELY every era put together. It feels so awkward for me because all of my favorite In Flames songs came from playground and Siren Charms but my favorite albums as a whole by far were the earlier 2000s and this was everything that made my favorite bits from everything going all the way back to the beginning. This was INSANE!!

This is definitely closer to come clarity in flames than it is clay man in flames. Having said that everything I’ve heard from the new album has been fantastic regardless of the era they’re trying to tap back into. It got weird over the last few albums but they’ve gotten back into a more aggressive style. Anders is best when he isn’t “singing” and there has been a lot of that on the songs released so far. I don’t think we will ever get another “colony” or “clay man” from them but I’m still going to blast this album from front to back for 6 straight months straight when it releases. In Flames We Trust!

Their early-mid 2000's stuff sounds like Killswitch with death metal vocal verses and melodic singing choruses. Their 90's stuff is classic melo-death. Think Iron Maiden guitar harmonies, but with death metal heaviness.

First time i ever heard In Flames was when i was a youth playing Counter-Strike 1.6 and listening to metal songs on KZread. My Sweet Shadow came on and immediately fell in love with the band. 16 years later I'm still listening. Their discography is legendary

I'm one of those who didn't "hate" their newer stuff, but didn't really love it either. (except those Claymen re-recordings were kinda bad) These new songs take me 20 years back in time when I first time found this band. Björn Gelotte and Chris Broderick are a hell of a guitar duo.

One of their best! But bro… nothing can get better than Crawling Through Knives riff🤯

I think I missed the news that Chris Broderick joined In Flames. Was confused for a while, then started to think it was like a Jeff Loomis Arch Enemy thing, underutilised guitarist in an older band. And then the solo. Just wow.

Discovered In Flames in mid 2010s. Around the time when they released Siren Charms. First song I heard was Through Oblivion and I knew right at that time I needed more. Not really a big fan of A Sense of Purpose, though it has a couple good songs, but their early-mid 2000s and basically Sound of a Playground Fading and everything after it are my favorite eras of In Flames.

Yes Nik, it's Chris Broderick. He's been playing with In Flames since Niclas left to play for The Halo Effect.

New stuff sounds the best that they have since either Playground or before that. Pretty good.

Back to cool music. We were straying away from this for too long, awesome 👍

Was hoping for this vid to pop up - i'm not disappointed. Your reaction is as good as this song. Back to good In Flames 🤘🔥

That drum work made my calves hurt! 😂 Damn that was a badass track!

It is Chris Broderick. And he's been in IF for a couple years now. I think Tanner (drummer) is really a main reason for why they went heavier.

This came screaming back like Soundtrack to your Escape with Vengeance 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love Anders vocals throughout the history of the band but you are correct. That is Chris Broderick!

His note/interval choices have always been really cool as far back as I can remember so the Jag Panzer days (I'm old) but it's pretty cool to hear him in the context of In Flames stuff. You love to see it imo, an older band still hitting bangers out of the park, even at this stage!
