INSOMNIUM - SINCE THE DAY ALL CAME DOWN (2LP)

Insomnium Since The Day It All Came Down on 180g White 2LP

Insomnium began to take shape during the austere spring of 1997 in the somnolent town of Joensuu, located in the easternmost part of Finland. From the beginning it was clear that this band would make music that was brutal and yet melodic, full of contrasts and changing atmospheres. They took the best traits of their favorite bands and molded these influences into a new kind of entity. The result was the marriage of melodic Scandinavian death metal and traditional Finnish tunes. Lyrics came to be sorrowful, dream-like tales of love and death, often set amidst the Finnish nature.

Originally released in March of 2004, Insomnium's second album Since The Day It All Came Down continues the sonic evolution ushered in on their thrilling debut and their penchant for exploring their musical boundaries is pushed even further here. Crushing riffs, catchy harmonies and wistful acoustic passages still remain, but the songs display clear progressive influences and take surprising and meandering paths, leading the listener to a dark journey through uncharted yet rewarding domains. Gatefold 180g white vinyl reissue from Back On Black Records.
