Lunar Strain is the debut studio album by Swedish heavy metal band In Flames, released in April 1994.

Guitarist Jesper Strömblad plays the drums, while the vocals are sung by Dark Tranquillity vocalist Mikael Stanne, a session musician for In Flames at the time.

On the 2003 Regain Records re-release, the songs order differs slightly, with "Clad in Shadows" being the second track, shifting the rest down by one.

The bonus tracks are actually three songs re-recorded from the band's 1993 demo,[4] which contained "alternative mixed versions of the album recordings."

All lyrics are written by Mikael Stanne; all music is composed by Glenn Ljungström and Jesper Strömblad In Flames Guest musicians Technical personnel [1]
