Talk:Sounds of a Playground Fading

Niclas Engelin

We can't say if Engelin did some contribution due to that Engelin was announced as full time guitarist 'til february and In Flames said that this album was finishied on January so we cant surely say Engelin did something on this album...so please stop inserting him in the personnel!! He didn't contribute to the album.. he joined the band full-time after the album was recorded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.61.101.249 (talk) 16:54, 21 June 2011 (UTC) Danyxy13 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.245.81.183 (talk) 04:20, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

It said in the Digital Booklet (comes with iTunes purchase) that he did. Page 8 I think. I'll edit it in for now, but let's try to find another source.Supahshadow (talk) 18:33, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Never mind. It just says "In Flames is" and then states the band members. It did not say they played on the album.Supahshadow (talk) 03:15, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Genre

The genre of this album really isn't Melodic Death Metal.. IF has been more Alt metal for the last few years — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.109.222.179 (talk) 18:46, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

"Melodic death metal". Ha. Where. Is. My death metal. !?. This stuff is barely metal at all.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.78.248.94 (talk) 22:03, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

Seriously.. stop with the genre wars... It IS Metal.. i agree they're not Melodic Death Metal anymore.. but they are Metal of some sort, maybe by definition they're more Experimental Metal or just plain Heavy Metal now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.61.101.249 (talk) 16:56, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

Progressive Metal? Seriously? Citation definitely needed for that one. The band was melo death, then nu metal, now hard/alternative rock/heavy metal, but they have never had anything to do with prog. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.148.174.198 (talk) 05:02, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Musical style section

I was looking through in flames' albums and noticed this one doesn't have a "Musical style" section, which i was disappointed at.

Music Genere

This album IS NOT a melodic death metal album!! It's modern-alternative metal. Stop write wrong things, please! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.29.143.205 (talk) 12:53, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

I totally agree Count Zar (talk) 22:54, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Actually.. clean vocals, and scream, double bass drums, melodic guitar riffs.. by definition.. this would still be melodic death metal.. and whoever said they were "death metal"... look up the definition of MELODIC DEATH METAL, it isn't even related to Death metal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.81.83.144 (talk) 15:15, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

Album Name

"Sounds of a Playground Fading" is a line from the movie "Children of Men" Children of Men on IMDB. The movie is based (loosely) on a novel of the same name by P.D. James

The line may or may not be in the book but does appear in the movie.

Don't know if it matters to anyone but I eat these science fiction references up, personnally :)

I was gonna mention the same thing, as that is afaik where the band got it from. Maybe there should be a link to Children of Men or a reference to it somehow in the article. 85.230.252.211 (talk) 09:09, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
