0.0 | Mitch Worden EMERITUS | December 14th 18 | Anders is the most flexible mofo, bar gets set on the ground every time and he still manages to get under it, impressive.

3.5 great | Cayde618 | February 28th 19 | While having a couple inconsistent
transistions of bridges and choruses. In
flames still keeps me invested and happy to go
back a few times this year.

3.5 great | Thomas Soto | December 18th 18 | On one hand I Am Above sounds like a comeback to their Come Clarity days, while This Is Our House sounds like this could be Battles Pt. 2. Still excited about this though.

2.0 poor | desecravity | December 16th 19 | It's an improvement to the previous two albums, but it's still lacking. There are some decent songs like Voices, I Am Above, Burn and Call My Name. However, the rest is quite forgettable.

2.0 poor | Antonius | March 24th 19 | In an attempt to expand their fanbase during the last decade, In Flames have destroyed their image through a series of bad albums. I hope that this is the third and final stroke. Recommendations: "I Am Above", "Voices"

3.0 good | BRAman22 | March 8th 19 | This is a really hit and miss record for me. The songs that hit had really catchy hooks that were easy to get into. On the other hand, the ones that didn't get their hooks in were just awful.

2.0 poor | Camation99 | March 6th 19 | This album kinda just exists. It's bland and forgettable with a few mildy enjoyable moments. Some of those cleans had me cringing. Overall, not as bad as I was expecting.

2.0 poor | ItsOnlySkinDeep | March 1st 19 | Better than the last two albums and about on par with R2R and STYE. Certainly listenable but nearly forgettable.

3.5 great | BekoTuran | March 1st 19 | I believe In Flames needs to step a bit further for a potential "comeback". I enjoyed "I, the Mask". I enjoyed it very well. Catchy riffs and melodic choruses works good. It sometimes brings boredom with it but In Flames put it out wisely. If we gonna state this as a melodic death metal, I would be upset. This is more like nu influenced metalcore I think. But it's not the melodic death I know. So, to enjoy "I, the Mask" don't get high expectations. This is a solid record and has some good catchy tunes. I hope In Flames would step a little further with their further installment.

2.5 average | ChaoticVortex | March 1st 19 | The key for musical redemption is right in front of In Flames and they just keep pissing it away. The first four songs are easily the strongest material they written in years, with a clear throwback to the Come Clarity days. And then you have songs like (This Is Our) House which is the same dreadful stuff that made Battles and Siren Charms unlistenable. A very inconsistent record that pictures a band broken by it's own irresolvable identity crisis.

3.0 good | buttgrinder | March 1st 19 | Oh thank god this doesn't suck. The front half is much better than the back, roughly as inconsistent as I expected based off the singles.

2.0 poor | Soilworker90 | March 1st 19 | So, this album seems to contain two different parts: The first 4 songs and the rest. Whilst the
first 4 songs are really good and would deserve 3.0 or even 3.5 points (Mr. Friden is even
screaming again here), the rest quite sucks (except "Burn", which is good again), starting with
"Follow Me". The second part even offers some quite nice riffs from time to time, but at the
latest, when the chorus begins and/or Mr. Friden starts to sing (and we all know this isn't a good
sign), well, then the next song is dead again. Best example for this is "Deep Inside", which
starts groovy with a very nice riff, but the chorus destroys it completely. So, mathematically
said, 5 songs which are good (3.0 points) + 7 which are not so good (1.5) and everything devided
through 12 gives a rating of 2.0. Sorry guys, again, this is just poor.
