Jester is the one that actually started In Flames (about 18 years ago i guess) it was his project...his idea...just his kid...and now he had to leave the band due his alcohol problem.
If you do not know their stuff yet you gotta check their stuff out very very soon.... All of their albums are wonderful, but i prefer "Come clarity" and "A sense of purpose" (the latest album)

what do ya think: new or old In Flames? which one is better. i say old in flames since colony. whoracle was the last album with deep voiced singers. i miss the old ones. its a pitty that anders said they never want to play the old songs anymore.
Well I really to prefer the new In Flames. But I do love the old In Flames as well...they just found their own style and to me it just works... Btw. they played some whoracle songs last year if i remember right, that was great...
Well for me it's all about anders. It's not like in other bands where the vocalist just changed. It was like 15 years ago when anders joined (after he left dark tranquillity I guess). So yeah. :-) Anders rules

In flames are great, watched them live during the reroute to remain tour. One particular thing stayed in memory. There was a lot of stage-diving and at some point somebody got up to the stage but was suddenly affraid to jump (not gonna get catched would be my guess).
He stayed a bit longer than the others did, and in the middle of the song a few security guards got on stage to get him off. The lead singer stopped singing and threw himself in the middle of the boy and the security guard and the boy jumped (he was catched). That was pretty amazing to see!
Not a regular listener but its definatly great music!

Yeah, In Flames are live very special. Did you realize that Anders always says 'this song is called...' I saw a video from 1997: This one is called ...` and one from 2008: ' Now we will play a song called...'. About the old singer: Someons said it was Henrik Forss 'Henke'. I will search for a band, who has a singer with that name. Perhaps i will find something. And Theres something about a person called ( ) Johan Larsson. I will search...
