I don't think he used "fuck" since but he has used "shit". But at least he used something. I like Watch Them Feed a lot and I would actually prefer the rest of R2R to use the same production.
In Flames New Album being released in Q2 of 2014 thread

Agreed. The guitars are not so muddy, and in general the track is a bit more "raw" -- which makes it all mesh much better.
It sounds like it wasn't mastered properly which might explain the rawness 
it's a massive comedown from the excellent, slick production of Clayman. But then R2R was as well. If In Flames hadn't buried so many melodies into that muddy R2R mix it would have been much better received.

I remember hearing Watch Them Feed for the first time and being really disappointed that Anders had used a swear
Actually, in Subterranean's title-track, during the last verse, I think Forss says "Fuck with me all through the night" (at about 4:52). The lyrics officially say "Spend time with me all through the night", and that's what shows up the first time this section comes about (at 1:51), but the second time, that's definitely not what's being said.
I find myself forcing myself to turn it on (that's rather bad in itself).
If I do though, Dead Eyes, Paralyzed, Monsters in the Ballroom. When the World Explodes' chorus is AWESOME, but I have to skip through the verses -- they're so boring and bland.

Not even Through Oblivion?
Well, I try not to listen, but damn, it's such a genre-defining, ground-breaking, jaw-dropping, heart-pumping piece of music.
Really, if I force myself to listen SC, I'm going only through IPW, Paralyzed, WTWE ending and Dead Eyes melody.
More reviews, good and bad

It's funny how all this "10/10" reviews sound empty.
"Anders vocals really shine. In Flames nailed another legendary album. Revolution in music." End.
In this particular case, author wrote about IF being good band in the past, IF receiving praise from Swedish minister of economy, Sweden having good bands, Anders singing clean vocas and SC being melodic. That's it.
Not the case with real 10/10 albums where writer can't stop describing every little phenomenal detail.
Oh...
Pretty much all the very positive reviews I've seen have been extremely generic, like they've just inserted In Flames name & band members names into a "good metal album" template. I seriously wonder if some of them have even listened to the album or just been given a check list of things to say by Sony.
Damn, if sony gives me a check I'm gonna start praising this album. I'm being serious sony.

Welcome to the Dark Side.
Ome thing I'm noticing is that all the good guitar melodies are hidden under Anders voice.
