The Jester Race

[MajestikMøøse]

So Chromatose and I have been discussing:

clamatoboy: gooooooood
The Moonkultdawn: because it RULES
clamatoboy: yes it does
The Moonkultdawn: and I probably should rank it among my favorites of all time
clamatoboy: yeah
clamatoboy: i was thinking that too
clamatoboy: i really should
clamatoboy: because it is
clamatoboy: i just don't think about it
The Moonkultdawn: yeah, you don't
The Moonkultdawn: I didn't either
The Moonkultdawn: until like one day I was like
The Moonkultdawn: wait
The Moonkultdawn: this is AWESOME
The Moonkultdawn: IT IS TOTALLY AWESOME
clamatoboy: yeah
clamatoboy: and when i come back to it
clamatoboy: its EVEN BETTER than i remember
The Moonkultdawn: I thought it was awesome before, but then I thought that was because I was just a stupid n00b. Now I know for sure that it. is. awesome!!!
The Moonkultdawn: man
clamatoboy: just now listening i heard some parts of songs that totally made me say "WTF THIS RULES"
The Moonkultdawn: I don't know how people could have initially reacted to this back in 1996
The Moonkultdawn: I mean
The Moonkultdawn: it's so ahead of everything else that I know of at the time
clamatoboy: yeah
clamatoboy: i was thinking this too
clamatoboy: hahah
clamatoboy: retracing my thoughts
The Moonkultdawn: even if it was released today
clamatoboy: I know

*adds clamatoboy*

 

[MajestikMøøse]

knitting is heavy metal.

[Conspicuously Absent]

I've loved all the early In Flames releases for ages.

 

[Dick Sirloin]

Weird, I actually listened to this in its entirety the other day for the first time in years.

7.5/10.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

I'm a former In Flames fanboi who was disenchanted by their new stuff. It was almost bad enough to drive me to rap.... if rap didn't make their new stuff seem amazing.

 

[Erik]

lunar strain is better

 

[MajestikMøøse]

I disagree

however

Stand Ablaze > Everything

 

[MajestikMøøse]

Actually, the Subterranean EP is arguably the best thing that In Flames ever did.
Arguably, because The Jester Race is also arguably the best thing they ever did.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

Everything up to Reroute to Remain was pretty damned awesome, especially for the time....

Reroute to Remain has a few decent songs and has a few moments for me. But it was soo crap at the time.... Soundtrack... fuck me... just horrible.

 

[MajestikMøøse]

I still listen to Reroute occasionally. There is some quite solid material on there. Some crap to filter through, but some good stuff still to be found.






I'm not gay. >_>

[Conspicuously Absent]

hehe. You made me go dick through a box marked "FUCK OFF AND DIE TO ALL WITHIN" and dig out all my old In Flames CDs.

That just blew my mind.
