According to Nielsen SoundScan, sales figures for IN FLAMES' Soundtrack To Your Escape have surpassed 100,000 copies.

Released by Nuclear Blast Records in 2004, Soundtrack To Your Escape was the seventh studio album for Gothenberg, Sweden's best known band. Praised for "redefining the standard by which extreme music will be judged" by Guitar World magazine and ranked #4 in 2004's year-end list of "one of the 25 most important bands in metal" in Alternative Press, the band toured North America twice in support of the album: with Killswitch Engage in 2004 and opening Ozzfest's Main Stage in 2005.

The deluxe Ozzfest edition of Soundtrack To Your Escape included the following material on a bonus DVD:

1. The Quiet Place (Video Clip)
2. Touch Of Red (Video Clip)
3. Watch Them Feed (Live at Wacken 2003)
4. Only For The Weak (Live at Wacken 2003)
5. The Making Of S.T.Y.E. (featuring Daniel Bergstrand)

Oh good god, say it isn't so. For their earlier albums like Colony, Whoracle or The Jester Race, this would have been excellent news, but to say that the buying public are supporting drivel like this particular album is nothing short of depressing.
