Dissapointing

Review Score: (6/10)
This album sounds nothing at all like In Flames. It is decent album, but it contains none of those remarkable Swedish-styled melodies which are instead replaced by repetitive power chords, whined vocals and sloppy song structures. A few songs are pretty good, but not good enough to warrant any more than 3 stars ( I especially like the slow song with the folk-inspired violin and clean singing. Very nice.)
