There was also a special edition which included a bonus DVD with videos of the first two singles, "The Quiet Place" and "Touch of Red", and live footage. Videos were also made for "My Sweet Shadow", "Like You Better Dead", "Borders and Shading" and "F(r)iend." The album was criticized by longtime fans for its modern sound and the band further forsaking its original melodic death metal roots. However, the album was seen by many as a natural progression from ''[[Reroute to Remain]]'' and was critically praised in many areas of the press such as [[Metal Hammer]] and [[Kerrang!]]. ''Soundtrack to Your Escape'' reached number 3 in Sweden. In the USA it peaked at number 145 on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] (their first album to reach the Billboard 200), number 2 on the [[Top Heatseekers]] chart, and number 7 on the [[Independent Albums]] charts.

Soundtrack to Your Escape is the seventh studio album by Swedish heavy metal band In Flames, released on 29 March 2004.

The album was criticized by longtime fans because of a major change in musical style[citation needed]. However, the album was seen by many as a natural progression from Reroute to Remain and was critically praised by critics such as Metal Hammer and Kerrang!. It reached number 3 in Sweden, number 45 on the American Billboard 200 chart (the band's first album to reach the Billboard 200), number 2 on the Top Heatseekers chart, and number 7 on the Independent Albums chart. This would mark the first album where the band would exclusively use drop A# tuning and abandoning the C standard tuning of previous albums.
