I just watched the third episode, interesting stuff, though I wish they would actually include some samples of the songs for us to hear
Hvala Bogu, jos dotle nije doslo
a i neće,ovo je in flejms
It's all looking very interesting and I haven't been more excited for an album coming out in a long time, the harmonised guitars on Deliver Us were some of the strongest since Clayman and really made me glad, plus I'm just digging the vibe that this album is giving off a lot more than I did ASOP's, it feels more like what I would expect from In Flames for sure.
What I want to know is if there's evidence of any growling whatsoever appearing on this record, I love that In Flames have broadened their musical perspective and their experimental work like Metaphor and Dawn of a New Day but I feel that if this album is to be a true representation of their past career as they seem to want it to be then they should make the use of everything in their arsenal, the thundering rhythms, the synths, the lead guitar melodies and harmonies, the clean vocals, the spoken word, the high pitched screams and the amazing low growls which were such a strong part of what makes In Flames unique. I think to miss out on any one of these elements would be to spoil a great opportunity to make potentially the greatest expression of In Flames and their greatest album to date.
ASOP had one growl, the second "you are a killer" in March To The Shore, I've seen the band live, I know Anders is capable of it... come on guys, do us proud!

Sounds pretty good so far. Not the best or worst single imo.

One of imperiumis (finnish metal site) crew members post something about new record.
Sorry about my bad english, but anyway he says something like:
He listened the record couble of times and seems to like it. Anders is singing clean like 90%, but he thinks those sounds good. He noted that he likes newer in flames more (ala CC, Clayman, Reroute) and he said new album might even top those. Good and catchy melodies everywhere and he wont even miss jesper.

@ GraemeSinclair i don't think the growls make In Flames unique at all. I find the high pitched screams and raspy screams of Come Clarity much more dynamic than growling. Lets face it- every band is doing low growls these days!
Concerning that 'he' won't even miss Jesper- Well In Flames have seemed to have a lack of creativity of late (okay one bad album out of 9 isn't bad, although Subterrainean is complete turd to me aswell) and it seems the guys have become a tighter-knit group as a result of Jesper leaving, as they stated in the second studio report. It seems alot of people have underestimated the might of Bjorn Gelotte all these years lol

Hey Fonzbear2000 thanks for posting, that digital artwork looks fucking awesome. Did it include lyrics? If so, post them please! =)
No actually, ASOP has/had several growls, at least 8 of them. I could list them if you are interested

Yeah Drifter i agree- it's a really dynamic song and is very tasteful (although not in lyrics!) for a heavy song. Not a huge fan of the production quality in F(r)iend's vocals, though.
The Studio Episode #3 is great! The Puzzle has a completely epic riff- it sounds like Colony brought forward into 2011! Bjorn explains that he's been practising much more aswell, trying to show off more technique.

Just thought i'd throw this out there- it blows the packaging of A Sense of Purpose away, easily, and makes Engel's Absolute Design fold-out look like a piece of cardboard. Oh wait...
I want this!
