The Flame in All Of Us is the fourth studio album by Christian rock band Thousand Foot Krutch; the album was released on September 18, 2007 through Tooth & Nail Records. It entered the charts at No. 58 on the Billboard 200. The band recorded the album with producer Ken Andrews (Pete Yorn, Mae) in Los Angeles in spring 2007. The CD is a rendition of life's most pressing questions asked by every single person to walk the earth.[citation needed] A special edition of The Flame In All of Us was released simultaneously, with a DVD detailing the making of the record. This was the first time the band has let their fans in on the behind the scenes of their recording.
The band's front man Trevor McNevan describes the concept as "No Matter what you believe or where you were raised, you have the same core group of questions as the next person, who am I? Why am I here? What is life about?"
The album almost completely departs from the rap metal and nu metal sounds of Set it Off and Phenomenon becoming heavier and more ambient. The album's style ranges from heavy metal on tracks "Falls Apart" and "Inhuman" to softer rock on "What Do We Know" and "Wish You Well".
"In more ways than one this is the most refreshing record we've made," McNevan has stated. "It was a uniting experience that took a lot of faith to get done. My favorite albums are the ones with lots of contrast that you can listen to front to back, that take you on a journey. And I believe the strongest bands are the ones that a listener can grow up with."
