Dr. Quality (Dark Tranquillity), Just Erase (The Jester Race), and "I guess for strong blood" (Jesper Stromblad).......I had enough youtube subtitles for today

[@vladv5126]

It's cool that Johnathan Davis agreed to fill in for Anders.

[@nickmacrae5976]

He looked even more like him 2006 with his dreads lol

[@01livingthedream]

Underrated comment my friend

[@UnderdogSTL]

This kid was nervous. Made the interview awkward. Love Anders Bjorn and Nicolas

[@nik0tine]

It's unfortunate that they don't understand the over the top guitars, and fantasy type lyrics is what most of us fans miss most.

[@discyple]

That was pretty cool of David Cross to agree to play Anders in this video.

[@MegaThrasher95]

Shawn Millender Hahahahahaha, holy shit.

[@amyhelie6061]

This is one of the best interviews I've seen this guy do. I feel like when u interview a band together it is way less awkward and more wholesome. Good job on this one, love this band! Also very good questions asked

[@hankhill5409]

Bjorn the most underrated guitarists ever. He has some of the tastiest riffs

[@northernlightsrc8994]

My sweet shadow....is sick and I I to talk to Bjorn about it after a show. He tried to show me " just so like this " and I'm like you just do it like that I can't get this intro down lol

[@amx1820]

Bjorn, Adam D (KSE), Wes Borland (LB) are some of the more underrated guitarists

[@brandontadday6288]

Bjorn really is one of my biggest influences when it comes to writing riffs and solos. Dude just has the tastiest melodic lines and some of the most powerful riffs. I especially love how In Flames use harmonies in their guitar parts to make their stuff more emotional and uplifting. Also, I’ve always loved their rhythm tones (probably part of the reason I always gravitated towards the old Peavey 5150 sound when jamming).

[@panchamk3721]

Niclas should do more interviews often its fun listening to him

[@deniselisboa1]

he talks in a weird funny way xD

[@merschavonia4745]

Denise Lisboa u mean his swedish accent? XD

[@exittragedy1436]

Niclas looks like an older 331Erock

[@deniselisboa1]

Anders has that swedish accent as well, but Niclas is too much haha xD well, at least I can understand him..

[@gz9975]

I mean it was natural and comfortable because he knew the guys for so long so yeah.

[@muckmeh3048]

This interview happenned vfew days ago, I just saw them in Montreal. Anders did talk crap about Budlight and Coors light all night, very funny guys on stage. Awesome band

[@ImExisted]

From 1:17 to 1:36 Anders looks like that chinese old man at the residental home that sits in his wheelchair and farts at the dinner table.

For Anders being the loudest one of the band either he is really uncomfortable or he is just a really quiet and chill dude which I would not expect.

[@patrickrudisill8829]

He’s always like this during interviews

[@reardeltoit4644]

He is a monster in the studio but a nice cat out of the studio.

[@xymoriintus]

It was uncomfortable because it's a really fuckin stupid pointless segment. Wikipedia true or false? Are you kidding me bro? This shit is intended for the Zoomer generation that needs instant gratification and satisfaction, too fucking worthlessly lazy to Google anything themselves. The Zoomers and every generation after will be the absolute demise of the United States and the world in general. come find this comment in a decade if KZbin still exists and tell me how fuckin accurate I was. If you can't see the destruction taking place right now you will be too late to be able to do a damn thing about it.

[@bstructiongame]

My fucking favorite band! About time you posted something about them!

[@dorisjohnson6104]

all you people complaining about o remember the jester race and colony need to appreciate and understand they have evolved in every aspect anders clean vocals are amazing and the lyrics... this man is a poet words cant describe the way he writes and the music fits it perfectly, very original style of songwriting im glad they dont sound just like every other band from sweden battles and i, the mask is their best work yet truthfully i feel sorry for you people that dont give it a chance a pure perfect mix of progression of their style while keeping that awesome in flames sound that we heard 20 years ago to just a few years ago on siren charms and every record they continue to just blow me away from headbanging to being brought to tears from the beauty of the harmonies we can only be so lucky IN THIS LIFE to have such amazing, once in a lifetime artists creating true greatness and beautiful music in the dark world we live in i am thankful for the bright light we are fortunate to have that is in flames IN FLAMES WE TRUST

[@yael50523]

I am loyal to In Flames as well, but there is no need to bash on those who don't like the modern era of this band, these fans are very passionate for what the band used to be and it's understandable why the complaints are strong. This whole year I've been getting into this band, I, The Mask being my introduction to the band. Then I went back to Lunar Strain and this journey has been completely amazing. Reroute to Remain being my favorite album, Trigger being my favorite song from the band, everything to Clayman being their best work. I even love Siren Charms which most claim as their worst album. Their re-recordings are amazing. What matters is, is that keep loving what you love and don't let that love get stained. IN FLAMES WE TRUST

[@BlacktheStar182]

I would love to see them do a Chevelle Wikipedia Fact or Fiction

[@davidwesley5159]

[@rocksmurfen7669]

If you miss Jesper, you should check out his new band Cyhra! He is their guitarist, along with Jake E (ex Amaranthe) Peter Iwers (ex In Flames) and Alex Landenburg (Ex Annihilator) They released their debut single 'Karma' a while ago, and a MV will release tomorrow! Their album releases october 20th!

It was actually funny seeing them live at Welcome to Rockville I believe in 2015, although I also saw them at the same festival in 2017, and Anders shit-talked the Bud Light he was provided and everyone thought that was pretty funny, so when he was just kinda hanging on not drinking shit, I was waiting for him to mention Bud Light by name again and was not disappointed.

Hes actually not. Dont get me wrong....I love Anders but he really is kind of a douche bag. Multiple experiences, run ins, friend runs ins, working show experiences. Bjorn is great but Anders......can be kinda....difficult. Pretty well documented in things that have happened with other bands as well. Might just be his personality but it can come across very rigid.

@@jamesnagel6264 I agree just from my one experience. I saw the band eating in an outdoors area of a restaurant by the sidewalk about 5 feet away from me as I walked from my car to the club they were about to play at. I recognized them so I waved and said "Oh hey, In Flames! Bjorn, Anders... Can't wait to see your show tonight." They looked up and a few smiled but Anders face palmed and shook his head, mumbling something unhappily like I just ruined his meal... A meal he was eating outside in public on a path to the club he was about to play at. My fan level permanently went down just a little.

[@jiricevela3822]

***** I am not saying you have to like every stuff they have produced. I mean, feel free to listen whatever you want, I, personally, do not like everything from IF either, but I just hate when people say bullshit and stuff as I mentioned. Nevertheless, as you said, metalheads are close-minded and that bothers me more than anything else. Cheers man! :)

Well they are mainstream for metal standards. That in itself doesn't make them a bad band. I myself have not heard enough to call judgment but as far as i know IF is just lacking recently.
