Yeah. Deathmetal is a very broad/wide genre. Some people still consider Opeth progressive deathmetal, even though their last album is full hippymode. Deathmetal can go from superbrutal to supermelodic/open/slow/basic almost poppy proportions. It's therefor a very vague term. Genres are tricky. These days a ton of bands that were once 'pure' now play a crossover of multiple styles.
SinisterSkip True in that crossover aspects but they who once rose from swamps of Florida mostly Tampa are still quite true to their old skool stuff. Prime example Obituary, Cannibal corpse. Ok Morbid Angel did some experimenting but the less known Tampa bands are still doing what they do best.
***** Nice edit, bro. Anyways, I'm not convinced- I'm not gonna argue after this comment because arguing in TH-cam comments is completely pointless, but, well, there's a reason that so many more people like melodeath than straight death- most of the stuff IS pretty different.
I've heard this album 3 times in the last two weeks, and while it doesn't tread new sonic terratories instead expanding the existing sounds of Melodic / Tech / Death Metal it's still an absolutely awesome album oozing great musicianship, composition, and great production that captures every detail on the album. Epic, Powerful and Majestic are words that don't fully do this album justice.
Insomnium never disappoints! This is the best band in whole metal world! SOTDS is the best album in this year for sure. Great job my friends! It's just pure epicness!
Never pariah But always on one's own Unwavering mind Black heart rebellion Cold is the night for the ones born of shadows Solemn is the way for the ones ever restless Cold is the night for the ones drawn to darkness Desolate is the path The path of self-believers Never bow to anyone, never give in Never surrender to anyone, never go astray Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Lies (Lies) Lies will bend the minds of the weak Life (Life) Life is meant to be led, not followed Lonely is the road for the ones seeking the truth Bleak is the trail leading to perception But only knowledge can cure the blindness And only knowledge can open our eyes and make us see Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Lies (Lies) Lies will bend the minds of the weak Life (Life) Life is meant to be led, not followed Never below Never above On one's own Never below Never above Black heart rebellion Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Dress the sky in ever-cold silver Unshroud the sphere Sphere from the clouds
Such raw beauty and emotion. This song and the river take me back to In the Halls of Awaiting. Cant get enough of this album been spinning it nonstop since i got it :) Still waiting on my casket edition tho so pumped! Make sure you all preorder or buy the album bands like Insomnium deserve it.
Daaamn! How loud are those words today in the light of current situation (April 2022) " Lonely is the road for the ones seeking the truth But only knowledge can cure the blindness "
I appreciate the blast beats and some blackened death metal influences with Insomnium trademark "Gawd these harmonies are so fucking beautiful" sound. Viva Insomnium.
This is one beautiful epic majestic song. This is the album when Insomnium took over from Dark Tranquillity as my favourite melodeath for sure... Long time since DT have done anything this damn good (Fiction). But nobody will ever match the ability of Mikael Stanne on vocals.
When you buy the Album, If I could make one suggestion to those who have been listening to Revelation / While we sleep, switch the track list to The Primeval Dark, Collapsing Words, Black Heart Rebellion, Revelation, The River, While We Sleep,Lose to Night, Ephemeral While we sleep and Revelation are the first 2 tracks and for me it made the album a little rough to get through since I already heard the 2 songs. This track listing made the album that much better. Amazing overall!
why would you even compare these two bands? they're not even in the same genre. it's like saying Kreator are the better rhapsody of fire, absolutely incomparable.
Jake Lawson Bullshit. In Flames haven't been Melodic death metal for many years. Clayman was propably their last serious album, what they've put out ever since was alternative metal shit all over. And even before you could hardly compare their style to the one Insomnium play.
You are welcome :) Never pariah but always on one's own Unwavering mind, black heart rebellion Cold is the night for the ones born of shadows Solemn is the way for the ones never restless Cold is the night for the ones drawn to darkness Desolate is the path of self-believers Never bow to anyone; never give in Never surrender to anyone; never go astray Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder light our path with glimmering eyes Lies... lies will bend the minds of the weak Life...

***** I know all about In Flames. I have all their older albums as well as Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity and been to their concerts. Still, none of the old stuff sounds anywhere near this song.
TehBegel Dear Melodic Death Metal Loving Friends; There is some similarity with Songs from "Jester Race" "Dead Eternity" and "December Flower" by In Flames mixes blast beats and accurate lead guitar melodies combined with tremolo picking riffs and classic metal riffs. Insomnium uses the same technique but has a bit more depth then In Flames. Also In Flames tuned guitars to "drop C" while Insomnium tune to "Drop D". Also, American music market is clouded by Bible Thumping Views and Corporate Greed which makes melodic death metal bands a little bit less popular unlike the Scandinavian Market. In a long term the music market is driven by various negative externalities. Finnish bands have a better incentive to practice their art. Opeth/ Katatonia (Swedish bands) concert brought 200-300 people In Oklahoma while Country Music Festival brings 10,000 people. Some kids also wore Insomnium shirt from Dallas concert. Listen to the radio music and its abysmal anti intellectual rhetoric and compare it to Insomnium or "Whoracle" by In Flames. But, USA is also produces The Black Dahlia Murder, As I Lay Dying, Daylight Dies and other respectable melo-death and metal bands. Melodic death metal fans should discuss music peacefully and respectfully. \ Sorry for my long blurb. I type fast.
The lyrics seem to be ambiguous as many times. What confuses me a bit is, that Lucifer ("Morning Star" in the text) shall be the one who brings light to path of the seekers of truth. How do you other INSOMNIUM fans interpret the meaning of this song's lyrics? "Never pariah but always on one's own Unwavering mind, black heart rebellion Cold is the night for the ones born of shadows Solemn is the way for the ones never restless Cold is the night for the ones drawn to darkness Desolate is the path of self-believers Never bow to anyone; Never give in Never surrender to anyone; Never go astray Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Lies... Lies will bend the minds of the weak Life... Life is meant to be led, not followed Lonely is the road for the ones seeking the truth Bleak is the trail leading to perception But only knowledge can cure the blindness And only knowledge can open our eyes and make us see Never bow to anyone; Never give in Never surrender to anyone; Never go astray Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Lies... Lies will bend the minds of the weak Life... Life is meant to be led, not followed Never below Never above On one's own Never below Never above Black heart rebellion Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Fill the silence with trembling thunder Light our path with glimmering eyes Morning star, angel of the dawn Light your torch, your radiant crown Dress the sky in ever-cold silver Unshroud the sphere from the clouds"
...And people say death metal (and metal in general) cannot be beautiful.
In fairness, those people are idiots and this is melodeath, which is a bit different than straight death metal.

Getting lyrics from this song tattooed on me, can't wait!

This is one beautiful epic majestic song. This is the album when Insomnium took over from Dark Tranquillity as my favourite melodeath for sure... Long time since DT have done anything this damn good (Fiction). But nobody will ever match the ability of Mikael Stanne on vocals.
Absolutely stunning
Btw. I bought album and sounds were awesome!! masterpiece album music/production
oh my ......cannot wait till May 8th
This song gives me goosebumps
When you buy the Album, If I could make one suggestion to those who have been listening to Revelation / While we sleep, switch the track list to
The Primeval Dark, Collapsing Words, Black Heart Rebellion, Revelation, The River, While We Sleep,Lose to Night, Ephemeral
While we sleep and Revelation are the first 2 tracks and for me it made the album a little rough to get through since I already heard the 2 songs. This track listing made the album that much better.
Amazing overall!
WoW! Beautiful!
the better in flames...for the last 5 years....
why would you even compare these two bands? they're not even in the same genre. it's like saying Kreator are the better rhapsody of fire, absolutely incomparable.
I like in flames i like insomnium...just like them better than in flames thats it...

INSOMNIUM

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
People who disliked this got their music taste off a cereal box.
reminds me of Insomnium
Pretty cool
STUPENDA 🖤
So, so, so sick. This album is an incredible return to form after the disappointing One For Sorrow.
Lies will bend the minds of the weak!
Now we just need the band The Black Heart Rebellion to make a track called Insomnium.
Fast its awesome
Chills.
fucking fantastic album and fantastic song
Now this is a bit different but i like it!
insane
Pretty solid. Not as memorable as the other tracks but still good. Going to be a great album I'm sure
the voice is kinda drowned out by the drums :( other than that Insomnium is getting better and better!
FINNISH AWESOMENESS
hell yeah ^^
C'mon please mr. postman...bring my copy of Shadows of the Dying Sun.
Agonising is the wait for the ones not included \m/
Sami Marttinen I have
Foda demais
reminds me of In Flames
How can this remind you of In Flames? They have no song like this.
***** I know all about In Flames. I have all their older albums as well as Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity and been to their concerts. Still, none of the old stuff sounds anywhere near this song.
***** If you're such a big In Flames fan, I'm not sure how you can't hear the similarities.
TehBegel Maybe something's wrong with me, hehe.
TehBegel Dear Melodic Death Metal Loving Friends;
There is some similarity with Songs from "Jester Race"
"Dead Eternity" and "December Flower" by In Flames mixes blast beats and accurate lead guitar melodies combined with tremolo picking riffs and classic metal riffs.

Melodic death metal fans should discuss music peacefully and respectfully. \
Sorry for my long blurb. I type fast.
full metal lml
🎉
Now that I've listened through the whole album, One For Sorrow sounded much better to me.

protolexis
:D

You're a sloth. Shut up.
Orbán Attila he mad.
!!!!!!!!!!
Zdecydowanie wolę album "One for Sorrow".
Fuck ! It's me or the voice is too much under the volume level of the instruments???
*Sorry for my english*

This song could make a great soundtrack for a space battle scene.

They're not ambiguous, they're pretty straight. This is indeed an ode to Lucifer which is the last source to seek any kind of truth.
