The second-best metal album ever made, behind only Dark Tranquillity's The Gallery. Recorded in 1995 by In Flames, it stands as their seminal accomplishment seconded by 1994's Lunar Strain and 1997's Whoracle. A true testament to spectacular riff-writing and guitarwork, every song has at least three distinct riffs, with a very dynamic lead guitar and a strong rhythm guitar and frequent double leads in parts. The vocals are powerful but not spectacular in any way and the lyrics are closer to poetry than 99% of music gets. The drumming is very fast and clean, but the drums and bass tend to make way for the guitar, which is clearly the highlight of the album and of In Flames in general, at least up until 2002's Reroute to Remain. A true testament to the riff- and solo-writing prowess of Jesper Stromblad, and a fantastic journey into another land, where creative and unrepetitive music reigns supreme. When combined with the 1996 EP Black-Ash Inheritance, it becomes an even better album simply due to the addition of In Flames's best song they ever wrote, Goliaths Disarm Their Davids, an epic track that stands out on an album that is nothing but epic tracks. A must-have for any fan of metal.
Man 1: In Flames is obviously a shite band. Clearly they're just another commercialized Slipknot knockoff.

Get the surely you jest! mug.Jesters is a renowned "night club" in southampton, uk, and is widely known by other universities.
The pleasure of jesters is in its cheap drinks (50p pints on a monday) and it lovely smell of vomit, sweat and other bodily fluids. There is cheesey music pouring out of its doors and hoards of people in fancy dress. But that doesn't put students off, in fact in encourages the onesie clad crowd, as it is a must for anyone in southampton, often with queues all the way to chicoland!

Jester Hopper pot is a fictional jester suit wearing character from a hit 8-bit show called "Code Monkeys". Story goes that Jester dreamed of creating a strain of weed so strong, it'll get you high off of just one hit. He would later name this weed "Hiroshima". He was last seen driving off into the sunset in his tye-dye school bus named "Farther"
But thats the story they tell you in school man.
It's true jester has a few hundred pounds of Hiroshima on the bus, but the real reason is because he stole the declaration of independence. He rode out, hid with his entire stash and planned to smoke the worlds dankest joint rolled with the deceleration itself.
