lol sounds like Dark Tranquility more than anything. And based on your comment, don't forget Jesper was probably a part of 4 albums from In Flames you may not like. This is the definition of generic. It brings nothing new to the table, takes no risks, its limited by Mikaels extremely shallow range in his screams, and sounds more like a Dark Tranquility song even without his vocals. Take all that and add upon the fact that they won't make Jesper tour because of his "condition" that he has been fighting for nearly two decades now which is borderline enabling. They are allwoing him to write for them, but hey if you can't perform because of your demons, its cool, we understand, "heal up." Dude has had that chance and these guys are both enabling and exploiting him at this point.

It's like In Flames - Jester Race album with Mikael singing instead. The guitar tone is oldschool In flames. I missed that sound. Also the usage of sample is less than new In Flames, more than old In Flames which is perfect in my opinion. That's shame it is a single. Before to tell something about it, I think we might need to listen a whole album. But I'm sure the guitar tone and the melodies will not change as long as Jesper plays it, which is perfect. Also Stanne has a simple but very emotional vocal technique, a great example of the perfection in simplicity. I think drums will be evolved in the album, maybe a bit more impactful or complicated as Daniel was in In Flames. That will most probably the only thing sounds missing in this single to listen the real swedish melodic death from the very founding members of the genre.
