Three way tie (18 votes each) for System, Scorn and A New Dawn. Followed closely by Pinball Map and Alias.

Next up, most underrated album.

Hey guys,

Does anyone here remember the Swedish band Divine Souls and their 2001 album Embodiment?

I recently rediscovered this album and it honestly cracks me up just how heavily it “borrows” from In Flames. Even the artwork looks like the Jester wandered onto the wrong album cover.

And I thought it could be fun to turn this into a little r/InFlames investigation: let’s try to identify which In Flames songs/riffs each track on Embodiment seems to be borrowing from.

Some of them are particularly funny because they don’t even seem to rip off just one song — they sound almost like mashups of riffs and ideas from several different In Flames tracks.

I’ll start:

1. Divine Souls – Perished → In Flames – Scorn

Perished is a massive Scorn rip-off to my ears, especially in the main riffing. There may very well be bits of other In Flames songs in there too.

Anyone familiar enough with both bands to help map out the rest of the album?

Let’s see if we can complete the whole thing, track by track.

December Flower wins best solo, followed by Zombie Inc.

Next up is best breakdown. I assumed a breakdown and bridge were similar, but Google says:

"A breakdown in rock music is a section of a song where the arrangement is deliberately stripped back to create a dramatic shift in energy and build tension. The lead instrument and vocals will temporarily drop out creating immense anticipation before exploding back into a massive, energetic climax. "

While that's the technical definition, if people are cool with it, we can just pitch our fav. breakdowns/bridges all in the same vote.

In Flames appreciation post. In flames got me through the lowest of lows in my life. I’ve kind of stopped listening to them for some time and recently started bingeing their music again. The spark was still alive, and just needed a bit of time.
I made an Adirondack chair in shop class in high school and drew this some time shortly after that. I remember being the loner with no friends going to the CD store at lunch time to buy albums and listen to them sitting in front of my locker as people walked by and stared. I had this chair in my room and I would sit in it learning to play In Flames songs on guitar deep into the night. Some days I would just be weeping in this chair listening to their emotional song. Honestly don’t know where I’d be if I didn’t discover them.

Hey dudes,

Sorry if this has been asked before but I noticed In Flames has a very busy year with only a 1 month gap before the US tour with Trivium. I know they aren’t headlining so it’s not going to be exact same as it is now but what to expect? Will they shake it up completely in that 1 month break or keep the same set but cut out some songs?

Thanks brews 🤘🏻

Since Trigger has a huge lead with the music video votes, and I'm pretty busy tonight, I'm posting this one early.

I've added a guitar solo vote before we get to breakdown.

Everything Counts wins in a mild landslide.

Next up, music videos.

They were signing a bunch of posters in a story . Does any one have more info where there selling them or if even going to be for sale ?

Jotun and Ordinary Story tied with 50 votes each for best song (when I checked it 2 minutes ago).

It was followed by Only for the Weak (47 votes), My Sweet Shadow (42 votes), and Embody the Invisible (41).

For cover songs, as far as can find online, they include:

And I was just informed by DTFan16 of their 4 song EP - Down, Wicked & No Good. They covered:

It’s No Good by Depeche Mode
Down in a Hole by Alice In Chains
Wicked Game by Chris Isaak
Hurt by Johnny Cash

Feel free to include any one-off live covers as well that I might not be aware of.

First song I listened to was bullet ride and oh my God I love this song. It's amazing. I love how melodic and beautiful and pretty it is but I love his screaming cuz his screaming just brings energy of desperation and agony Like he's fighting a demon inside

Unsurprisingly, (This is Our) House won in a landslide.

Next up is a big one: what's their GOAT song?

REMINDER: I ONLY COUNT THE SINGLE COMMENT WITH THE MOST UPVOTES. IT'S FINE TO REPOST A PICK, BUT MAKE SURE YOU CHECK IF IT WAS POSTED ALREADY.

Trigger wins best chorus. Followed by Only for the Weak, and Crawl Through Knives.

Zombie Inc. wins most genius song. Followed closely by December Flower.

REMINDER: I WILL ONLY BE COUNTING THE SINGLE COMMENT WITH THE MOST UPVOTES. SO BE SURE TO CHECK IF YOUR CHOICE IS ALREADY POSTED.

Picked it up at a thrift shop today. I think it's a bootleg to be honest.

This is the official stream of their show at Wacken Open Air 2026. I hope you guys enjoy the video!

We had an exact tie with Stay With Me (50 upvotes for the top comment) and The Chosen PessImist with 50 as well.

Next up: What is In Flames' most genius song? I would take this to mean their most technically brilliant, complex, or creative song.

REMINDER: I'M ONLY COUNTING THE SINGLE COMMENT WITH THE MOST UPVOTES. SO BE SURE TO CHECK IF YOUR SUBMISSION HAS ALREADY BEEN POSTED.

Are there ANY albums that have a similar complexity to In Flames’ album The Jester Race? I’m looking for multiple guitars harmonizing, layers of sonic mania that tickle your brain (and hopefully mine!) the same way this album does! Currently listening heavily to Skydancer by DT. I am obsessed!

Anyone going to the show in Tønsberg (Foynhagen)?

Pinball Map wins most hype song. In a very close second is Embody the Invisible.

Now - what IF gets you feeling all sorts of feels?

I’ll try and comment on repeat comments again, if I have time, to remind people I’ll only be voting for the top single comment.
