Subterranean ep?

[metalkicksass]

Subterranean! what do you guys think about this little ep?

 

[Clay-Man]

I love stand ablaze

Stand Ablaaaaaze. Everything else is OK. A nice EP.

Their best release, imo.
I love every song.
Stand Ablaze is definitely the standout. The intro is really cool and then the opening melody is really epic.
Everdying is awesome. Great melodies and it features their heaviest riff ever.
Biosphere is really cool. Intro is like The Pilgrim by Iron Maiden backwards. Great song, cool lyrics.
Subterranean is also really cool, very sorrowful, a great song. One of their grimmest. Very gothic lyrics.
The version of Dead Eternity on there is great, probably equal to the TJR version.
The Inborn Lifeless is probably a little better than Dead God In Me.
The 2 covers are pretty much worthless, tbh, but cool to have.
Henke is their worst vocalist, but did a solid job. Either Friden or Stanne would have made this a better release, but Henke did a perfectly good job.

had some of those nice Swedish folk influences, which I most definitely miss.

Stand Ablaze, Everydying and Biosphere are some of In Flames' finest songs. The intro riff to Stand Ablaze never ceases to amaze me, even after 5 years of listening to the EP.

Yeah, Lunar strain, Subterranean and The jester race had some great folkish influences, wich they would've still kept those instead of the new metalcore/nu metal influential shit.

<3 The intro of Biosphere

 

[Donnie Darko]

Great release. Has everything that they have lost over the years

 

[DE4life]

Stand Ablaze is epic, Biosphere has a nice opening... nothing else too special about Subterranean. It's a good EP for the time, and shows the potential of the band.

 

[Clay-Man]

The guitar work is really simular to The Jester Race. Like this album is more simular to TJR, than Whoracle is. The guitar settings are about exactly the same.

 

[Mystique1721]

somebody convince them to go back to their old influences

Maybe they should bring back Henrik Forss on vocals

'Stand Ablaze' is one of my absolute favorite In Flames songs. I prefer the version of 'Dead Eternity' that's on here over the TJR version - Henke's vocals just have a lot more energy. Example? 'IIIIIIII... bid you welcome...' \m/
