I was blown away by how good this cd is. I have been a fan of In Flames since "Whoracle", and have bought the last 2, "Colony", and "Clayman". I don't care what anyone says, this cd is awesome. There isn't really a bad song on here. This band hasn't "sold out", they have just gotten better and expanded their musical ability. Musically, and lyrically, this cd is worth the 5 stars i'm giving it. my picks: "Trigger", "Free Fall", "Dawn of a new Day", "Minus"
