Insomnium - The Killjoy

[MrAnchell]

INSOMNIUM WE LOVE YOU

[Metalguy287]

Remember these words when tide is turning

The less you hope for, the less you suffer

If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter

Lunge from the heights and fall to smithereens

i love that part of the song...so meaningful

[kenhv74]

lol this is the first Insomnium song i've heard that uses lydian mode x)

[KANtemir85]

Genius creation. I can't describe my delight by words.

[beargryls18]

i stopped my porn for this... but im still masturbating

[mattjargon]

@beargryls18 haha!

[zombiezombie1977]

I hope they play this in Hell...

[PirateTravisJohnson1]

Arghn't they on the same record label as Arch enemy or The Agonist, either 1?

[fuckslipknot21]

''Wait not for compassion or words of consolation

For only a gleeful smile is greeting you''

man, how i love it when songs end in such a depressive tone, i mean, those lyrics just finish off all your hopes, it is amazing!

we should all be a little melancholic at times and such songs are just the best for this feeling. insomnium, the best

[cyanide97]

\m/



[TangyCheeseCherry]

OMD THIS IS MY FAVOROUTE SONG EVER MY MUM INTRODUCED ME TO IT CAUSE SHE A 'ARD NUT<<3<3<3

[birddhunterr]

ONE M0:00RE TIME!!!

[OrangeUltras79]

Their inspiration is blessed by something supreme.. there are some feelings arising by listening to their music...I could just express them as my downwards and upwards in my whole life..Insomnium thanks for existing..

[IronMaidenDoesNotSuc]

Pure awesome ness! :D

[Aliennnaa]

the best melo song ever!!

[leithalengineering]

JUST BRUTALS!!

[ShadeofJericho]

Explained above the lyrics.

[GRInFlames]

Can i ask you something? why's the video 10:49 if the song is 5mins?

[ziasun11]

I feel so bad for the people who are stuck listening to radio shit while we get to listen to some of the best music ever written

[ploiyt]

The rhythm, that melody, the solo, the outro so perfectly weaved together to create The Killjoy, PERFECT, there is no other way to describe it...if you dont get shivers once you hear 3:16 fine, if you still don't get them by 3:40 fine... 4:25...still no? thats ok too but if you still feel nothing by 5:04 then this song was way to epic for your ears to handle and KO'd you at 00:05

[nosox96]

also these pop musik guys cant sing and they dont make ther music themselves. PURE FUCKING METAL!

[macvidar]

Oh the epicness

[G27dude]

at 4:24 right after he says those words, It sends shivers down my spine every time.

[666OwNsYoU]

Just Kalmah can reach Insomnium....

[Th3PiloT1995]

nobody can compare insomnium with any other band... they melodies,lyrics,songs... pwn every other band in the world......\m/ will NEVER die \rr/

[gabbergandalf667]

The whole album but especially this song manages to give me goosebumps every time I listen to it. I dunno how they do it but Insomnium is IMHO the most awesome Melo Death band ATM. Oh, wait, I know how they do it: kick ass lyrics Songwriting and exceedingly beautiful lyrics.

[jaimeexd]

This band is lik my Number 1 of all metal bands I got. its just perfect.

[Phantheman90]

this song has everything. Heavy drums, Awesome guitars and vocals but my fav part has got to be the riff at 04:24. That riff gives me goosebums.

[andrewesquivel]

@Phantheman90 dude...me too. all my hair just stood up at that part...its so beautiful, i might just cry.

[G27dude]

@Phantheman90 lol. funny how I said the exact same thing in a comment right before I read yours :D

[savierq]

suomi rulez :D

[princessofbrutality]

I love this band, this song has a slight Amon Amarth feel to it.

[lennyjudd123]

@princessofbrutality yeah i know what ur talkin about, kinda has a A.A feel to it at the begining but i gotta say, i love amon amarth but these guys (in my opinion) is far more brutal

[G27dude]

I get chills every time I listen to this. This has to be the greatest band ever.

[bubbles9630]

=o i like it!

[jaimeexd]

''Remember these words when tide is turning

The less you hope for, the less you suffer

If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter''

THE TRUTH WRITTEN IN BLOOD!

[mattjargon]

my words can't express how epic this song is

[znifffe]

Best song to the album!

[persondude911]

this songs amazing. i hope insomnium becomes more popular, they def deserve it

[clockwerkkilla420]

This is definately one of the more beautiful things that I have heard lately. I feel a lot of people tend to misunderstand death metal in thought. Take Opeth, and Insomnium for instance. But I wouldn't exactly call this death metal, I guess you can call it death metal but I would just call it melodic metal.

[SIn2Lunacyrcus]

realy beautiful... almost best melodeath band ever...

[Pezablez]

Beautiful song, lyrics, melody, everything!

[metallmann231]

I bouth all of insomnium's CDs cause they are incredible. I'm waiting for them at montréal and I will pay 150$ to see them in live. the are juts so awsome. This song and Last statement are my favorite of this album and nothing of all the group music I heard can be compared to Insomnium. They opened a new door inside the music history.

[Mrbanane1000]

@metallmann231 ou a montréal????!!! OMG!!!!!

[metallmann231]

@Mrbanane1000 désolé, j'ai fait un érreur dans mon texte. non il ne vienne pas encore, mais je voulais dire que je suis pret à les attendre à montréeal et je suis pret à payer 150$ s'ils viennent. ça fait 2 ans que jregarde chaque 3 mois pour savoir s'ils vienne en amérique et je suis toujours déçu.

[Mrbanane1000]

@metallmann231 comme toi je suis un fan fini!

[metallmann231]

@Mrbanane1000 Mrci au moin je sais que je ne suis pas le seul à être fan fini. J'ai tout leur album sauf in the halls pcq il est back order. J'ai vraiment hâte qui vienne en amérique.

[basstard013]

@metallmann231 Might as well just buy a ticket to Europe and have fun.

[clockwerkkilla420]

@metallmann231 Check out Sylosis, or The Absence. Both bands are tremendously good melo-death metal bands. Or thrash, whatever you want to call it.

[beltmaster11]

@metallmann231 why 150?



[SelfProclaimedGamer]

This song ALWAYS, and I mean ALWAYS, gives me unconstrainable urges to bang my head, and has a HUGE emotional impact. Greatest. Band. Ever.

[KonductKemp]

I found this incredible band, by chance, while working as a data processor, over two years ago. I can't compare ANY band to them; and I've done my research. The only names that come close are Fractal Gates, and Be'lakor. A few Nightrage and In Flames songs hit the spot occasionally for me though.

[SelfProclaimedGamer]

@KonductKemp Yup, only thing I can compare to Insomnium is Be'lakor - they're more aggressive than Insomnium, losing out slightly on the melodic part (although that isn't a big deal), but they're my favorite band next to Insomnium.

[Andreas1995ray]

No One can describe how cool is Insomnium:: just close you eyes and feel the energy getting inside you:

INSOMNIUM IS THE BEST

[Andreas1995ray]

SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY!

SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY!

SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY!

SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY! SPARKLY!

3:15-3:45 FEEL THE SPARK--_!--!_\m/_!--_!--

[MetalForever1982]

Epic song...

[Bazatage]

AWESOME! But it is too short

[xVxPerditionxVx]

Best band ever!

[Rolend44]

Amazing song/album/band!!!!

[vaztian23]

IL so much!!

is band!!

[martokent1]

dude, F'n sweeeeeeeeeet

[jbeebrylle]

what!! Insomnium is better than Amon Amarth!

Im sorry but thats what I feel about it..

[penssmell997]

I just had a 5 minute and 30 second orgasm.

[xVxPerditionxVx]

@penssmell997 I had about 10 minute 49 second one :).

[thrash666girl]

...holy shit. this needs more views.

[bradygara14]

This is badass......

[loudbrit]

the rest of the minute after the song are there to help you recover from ur massive jerking off session while you listened to this.

[TheMem0ry]

''Remember these words when tide is turning

The less you hope for, the less you suffer

If you dare to trust, then you shall shatter

Lunge from the heights and fall to smithereens''

1 word... Beautiful.

[funkdaddy7]

ok guys...not so much hating on pop music.........retards need something to listen too also. Not everyone can comprehend the depth of this kind of song writing.

p.s. this song made my pants wet........again.

[xxdanxexx]

@funkdaddy7 You just got done listening to Madonna before this, didn't you?

[rocker2113]

@funkdaddy7 xD I almost cried after reading that one. I'm going to have to use that one.

[yanickbelanger23]

only real fans love to metal, cause we don't listen to the music, we feel the music..!

[yanickbelanger23]

only real fans love to metal, cause we don't listen to the music, we feel the music..!

[JamesThurmond25]

COMPLETELY underrated band. They deserve ALOT more exposure than they get

[SmolderingCold]

This is fucking awesome! One of the best bands ever!!!

[DaCaSh100]

Best part is from 5:26 to10:49

[DaUndataka]

@DaCaSh100 Let me guess, the silence helps you count to four again because judging from your materialistic user name you strictly like music that enables you to count to four over and over again for 4 minutes straight with some "get money" and "where's my bitches at" bullshit thrown in the mix. 1 2 3 4, 12 3 4, get money, 1 2 3 4. Seriously, keep counting to four over and over again and keep telling yourself that your music is awesome. Ya douche.

[DaCaSh100]

@DaUndataka umm i happen to like this song? I was just being a smart ass. Fuck off.

[Krew2New]

@DaCaSh100 Dude shut the fuck up

[DaCaSh100]

@Krew2New uhh... why?

[vund1991]

wordless beauty....

[Krew2New]

Does anybody know where I can find the tab ???

[magicfanforlife]

this song is too short!

[nilzardo]

I can listen to this song over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and I just don't get tired of it. One of the best songs ever. Jizz in my pants and my ears simultaneously at the last 20 seconds

[benson1ification]

I agree, they can make their computermusic all they want, but they'll never beat this!!!

[herb414]

@ nitroInjected , i hear you clearly

[Drummerz24]

that riff @ 4:26........awesome....whole song....awesome

[Aunrah01]

Fuck hip hop and other such musical debaucheries.

Those who listen to such filth will never experience the depth or overwhelming and even brutal... dare i say "beauty" that is Insomnium.

[Slowpokepokingslowly]

@Aunrah01 I actually say that those who take hip hop seriously will never experience depth in general. Due to a lack of capacity...

[Jerry35551312]

@Slowpokepokingslowly Not ALL hip hop is bad. Hip hop generally speaking has the potential to be meaningful and enjoyable. Sadly, it's mostly wasted on garbage.

[Aunrah01]

This song is so perfect.

I have had the lyrics tattoo-ed upon my flesh.

left side of my rib cage just beneath my arm.

Finished just above my hip.

[OnlyLifeMatters]

@Aunrah01 Way to go.

[goodvocalcover]

i hate hiphop i love metal but..... u cant hate hiphop everyone like diff types of music my friends its what makes u happy and makes u feel good

[Bostonbird733]

i wish i could hear the bass drum just a smidgeon more

[OneHourPerSecond]

5:04-5:26 best!

insomnium > all

[devilmonster69]

very good song..

[ditpowuh]

There's just something about Insomnium that makes their songs awesome.

Oh that's right, everything.

[WadhhosSilcius]

No matter what Insomnium makes, I like it!

[Swayzemob]

fucking decent, OI

[cruncha]

This is pretty cool

[WheelchairAccessible]

OH, YES, OHHH, YES.

Sorry, Just had an eargasm.

[GuitarJammer]

I wanna find those three fucks that disliked this video.

[Bostonbird733]

@GuitarJammer agreed

[LeadForBreakfast]

This song is freaking awesome... PERIOD

[Aunrah01]

I love this song so much I had the lyrics tattooed upon my flesh.

Left side just beneath my armpit.

Looks amazing.

Such an awesome band, everything they do is pure gold.

[JustSpelunkin]

I fucking love this song.

[stuum93]

that is the definition of a riff

[sllugg]

This is why I love metal, it is just soooooo intricate

[scottdontknow1]

i love this band wat makes them even better is there from finland =D

[BaseballGod710]

your mom is so fat that when she goes to mac donalds its sounds like shes giving a phoine number "yeah i'll have a 693-4621"

[racosphinx]

@BaseballGod710 Lmao. Really?

[BaseballGod710]

@racosphinx yep

[PSNBloodraid]

@BaseballGod710

Your 'joke' is not funny, and the only one it insults is yourself by showing how stupid of a fuck you really are.

[BaseballGod710]

@PSNBloodraid thanks always looking for feedback, just one question if im the stupid fuck why did you bother posting a reply

[tacityrn]

GREATEST IN HISTORY

[penssmell997]

This is by far the greatest album by the greatest melodic death metal band in history.

[00zardoz]

The only thing I've heard that can even compare is Be'lakor from Australia.

They only have 2 albums, but yeah...

These guys probably inspired them alot.

Don't know where I'd be now if I hadn't found something decent to listen to. But at what cost? All other music now sounds like...

[tacityrn]

and when you come here with charred wings and a defiled heart, wait not for compassion or words of consolation

for only a gleeful smile, is greeting you :D

[tacityrn]

to rejoice is to lapse, fool yourself and repent

love will soon turn into woe

reveries to contempt ;p

[tacityrn]

cleanse all in life and redeem myself from scorn

[tacityrn]

sink without a trace just a fools hope remains

[PieRRepO]

Best outro EVER !

[Urathomable]

Neither do I man, neither do I.

[DragesMcDoodle]

I love this song. It's much like my soul in words and music. The best song i've known.

[tacityrn]

if i were me OH WAIT shit

hehe i'd heed his words if i were u

i just hope everyone here is much of a fool as me

[MrJebusCrust]

The outro... I have no words for it. It's face-meltingly epic.

[GrandElemental]

Exactly. That's the best part of this gorgeous piece of musical awesomeness. It's very rare to hear something like this, usually the good parts are in the middle of a song. Shows how much talent Insomnium has, again. =)

[SexyParty154]

I came multiple times during that.... I just had to go back for more

[2ndLtAlleyneRMC]

imsomnium... living up to their name!!

[ComprimisedXInsanity]

They have kick ass album art.

[valtttu]

i love the riff that starts near the end of the song.

[valtttu]

4:25 <3

[Urathomable]

That fucking solo man; it isn't overtly technical, but it speaks volumes.

[valtttu]

It's got a great emotion! =)

[basstard013]

class act. 'nuff said!

[0bjective11]

i love this song since i met the guy from new zealand..and i still in love with him..i love insomnium!

[94LG]

I remember I used to listen so much to Insomnium.

[jbeebrylle]

is this from the latest album?

whats the album?

[disturbedboar]

....sigh

[jbeebrylle]

lol..

I figured it out right after I posted the comment

[Thor6136]

it's from album Above the Weeping World

[kleidoscope]

uff...

[CRYSTALICBAND]

real melodic metal

[MercyClock]

I thought I heard the best Melodeath there was after listening to Amon Amarth, but this band came flying out of fucking nowhere!

No disrespect to Amon, but this band is worth something too.

[vt7ellada]

@MercyClock My opinion is that In Flames is by far the best melodic death metal band globally

[OnlyLifeMatters]

@vt7ellada In Flames best? I thought so too when I was 16. And don't get me wrong, I still love them. So much nostalgia. But seriously, listen to Insomnium's "Change of Heart", and try to find better song from In Flames' discography. Remember though: you won't find it.

[vt7ellada]

@OnlyLifeMatters Look... I listened to this song again and it s freaking amazing... i didnt remember that i said that in flames are the best melodeath band in the world, but i know verified it... So I only have to say that both of them are "GODS"... :P

[OnlyLifeMatters]

@vt7ellada Ach, so true.

[hoodedraider]

the rhythm at 4:29

then listen to Pagans mind coming home..

intro is almost alike to this ^^ :P

anyway who cares.. awesome song

[belgurd]

Starting to find something musically that really fits me, so far its pretty much War of Ages and Insomnium. Ohh yes!

[jbeebrylle]

love the melody structure

[scarymetalblade]

hahaha good band

[imperfection32]

the main reason i love these guys it because they put so much effort in all of their song so u cant say one is the best cuz theyre all so good

[ibanezguitarist12345]

these guys ruuule

[splitterfitta]

I'm speechless... love them...

[TheMP5Mercenary]

I THINK I FOUND MY SONG OMG

OOOOOOOOOOO I DIIID xD

[scaraaracs]

One of the Best Bands I've listened too!

[hailAA94]

1:40 epic!!!

[LightXD]

:D finally music in which does not remind me of pop rock or any other destruction of music

[NitroInjected]

why cant all songs be like this instead of gay shitty hip hop, if your from the UK the gayest music MCin, garage etc

[paigethe2nd]

Hahahaha MC is so shittt.

[bradygara14]

@NitroInjected Because all great artist start of somewhere.

[EddyVII]

gahhhh!!!! where is the tabs for this song?!?!! i need! cant learn by ear, but i can play this song on drums [:

[Loves2spooge696]

This and change of Heart is the most ''happier'' song from Insomnium, the rest are kinda sad

[mahtimiika]

Well I think song of the storms has kinda cheerful melody in the end ;D

[XDivineBlissX]

Yeah this does sound a bit diffeent but in a good way.^^

[XDivineBlissX]

Different*

[hadha749]

if anyone has the tab for this can they send it to me thanks
