A review by
Dream Taster September 17, 2003
'Gyroscope' was brand new material until they released Whoracle while the live version of 'Behind Space' is good without reaching the status of an essential track. So, there is good material but it's a little short, even for an EP. Hopefully, highlights such as 'Goliaths Disarm Their Davids' and 'Acoustic Medley' make it worth checking out.
Rare Melodic Death Metal, that's what this EP is all about. By the way, there's three ways to get this EP: the original release, of course, but also both the re-issue of The Jester Race and the Japanese version of Whoracle include the full Black-Ash Inheritance EP.

I could never understand the fuss about In Flames - their output this century has been abysmal and I always considered their '90s stuff inferior to their Gothenburg and Stockholm peers. But this EP has changed my mind a bit, as Goliaths...is really a brilliant track by any man's measure. The Acoustic Medley can rival At The Gates' And The World Returned for the best Gothenburg acoustic track. I will be investigating into the band's early material now I think
