Somebody labelled this incorrectly an Alternative Metal. However as In Flames is a melodic death metal band, it makes sense for STYE to be labelled as such. Songs like My Sweet Shadow and The Quiet Place are clearly Melodic Death influenced, with the Gothenburg guitar sounds.
no no....STYE IS NOT melodic death. They were melodic death in Jester race, Whoracle, but this album is NOT melodic death. if you say that tqp is "death" influenced please make your musical culture better ;-) it's completely different (however i like bot old albums bot new alt/nu/core/melodic/asyouwanttocallthem albums)
In Flames WERE a melo-death man, and STYE is not a melo-death band. And The Quiet Place has barely any guitars... Mphudson 20:35, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- It's not correct the definition of melodeath for the last IF albmus. Melodic Death Metal is a completely different genre, just listen to Lunar Strain, Skydancer, Heartwork or Slaughter of the Soul. You speak about The Quiet Place, well, it's very far to this genre, the rythms and the melodies are obviously influenced by american alternative scene. Also MSW with its hard guitar rythms. The "alternative metal" definition is correct, even AMG says so and In Flames themselves don't like the term "melodeath" and speak about it as the music that influenced them in their origins. We could also talk about the post-95 pre-2002 albums but it's not our thread and for now I don't care. (HR)
- obviously In Flames changed their style; Metal Archives says "modern rock" only to leave the problem of the genre, but they understand that IF changed their genre. 99% of deathsters refuse to consider "melodic death metal" a big piece of all the bands that are labelled so. In Flames' members themselves in interviews say that their musical views are large and they like a lot of melodic bands. Stromblad is in love with Killswitch Engage and Caliban, for example. This because In Flames isn't a "this genre/that style" band, they often changed during years and will continue to change. They are not a "melodic death metal band", they are only "In Flames" and all their next albums will be different. | Connacht
[edit] modern metal
But modern metal doesn't exists, and everything that is "metal" and is "modern" could be labelled so. Better remain to alt metal (the reviewer in the link even says that STYE "is also more death metal than their previous offerings", oh yes, and Death are a glam metal band ;P).

They shouldn't even be labelled alt metal, they're not that alternative, like say, SOAD or Tool, those being innovative. In flames's sound and and songs are quite predictable and unchallenging. The genres here should be simply 'metal' and 'metalcore'.Revan ltrl 00:18, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
