@7hobbit7 yes you are now AWAKE and so am I inside... i tried to add it on the "site" that very day but it just wouldn't allow me no matter how hard i tried! you had to find it on your own i guess!! ;-))
@3v1l4ur4 That't what happens when i am being more observing....when i open my eyes and open my heart...at last. I didn't even know this comment exist, and yet i found it, somehow, by accident? I don't think so :-)))
WOW! I don't even play this on loud and still everything shaking from the fantastic bass! It seems it's not just me who's moved by this song, my funitures want's to play along. My quote; I'm happy to get some company!
Insomnium, you made my life worth living again!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey guys! If you like Insomnium, make sure to check out my band A Haunted Mantra. We are a melodic death metal band and are all huge fans of Insomnium. I guarantee you'll enjoy it!
Songs like this are the ones that turn this band into something that keep changing my life. Thanks for bringing this songs into my soul Insomnium, you have helped me throughout a lot of rough times.
@2001Jug Insomiun doesn't need to stick to the one style. Look at Opeth, they've got quite a broad spectrum of music. Take their Damnation album, different style, but good all the same. This is still Insomnium, just a different song.
@2001Jug well dude, it is INSOMNIUM, and it does sound exactly like their style. this was an unreleased instrumental that they put up for download with Weather the Storm. check amazon.com if ur still a sceptic.
This song sends shivers down my body. There isn't many artists that can create a symphony of sound quite like Insomnium can. They make that guitar sing better than most vocalists could sing notes. I really do think that a select few bands, including Insomnium, could be considered to be the "Mozart" of our generation because it is REAL music with REAL talent and REAL passion. I hope many of you feel the same way i do.
@darkfortress2552 totally agree with everything you just said. Insomnium is more than music, they are composers, they create some true peices of artwork. words cannot describe the feelings i get when i listen to this band, especially when on my ipod when walking through the woods on a crisp winters day.
@crashmer Check the band all together! :-)) But yes, Decoherence is brilliant! They create masterful instrumentals indeed...Thank you so much for the upload....
Beyond the sight I noticed you,into the storm you prayed,prayed for me to never come.Posponed under the wind I waited,waited for so long to disappear again, once again in those hollow memories of yours.
Everyone please copy this message and post it on every Insomnium vid you can find. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
On the 1st of October 2011, we as Insomnium fans will all watch the video for 'Down with the Sun' to give it more hits and get it to that 1million mark.
Insomnium have written the most beautiful music for their fans and it is time we gave them something back.
it took me.... four seconds into the song.. to realize... that this band is the best band in the whole fucking world and no other band can ever fucking COMPARE to them unless they're fucking demons... or McDonalds french fries... soo good...
@demolisher90 I get to go see them and Katatonia soooonnn... Gunna show up wearing my OLD ass Opeth shirt, Mikaels signature prs, show them the picture of the O logo decal on the back of my car, then flash them my O tattoo. I will then ask if I am number one fan, or just crazy lol
i just want to say..this band has been there with me at my time of sadness and happiness man,,..i don wanna just call this music,,,its life..a whole new world man...HAIL frn INDIA!!!!!insomnium for life...
I love reading the comments in Insomnium's videos. I feel at home, seeing so many people share the same feelings as mine.. of absolute hatred and distaste for the mainstream pop scene, where so called artists write cheesy lyrics about love and make millions for a piece of junk not fit to be called music.
There are so many underground bands for whom music is only a side project, yet they've enriched thousands of their fans lives through their music.
@kissofdeathisraja I love your passion, although things considered to be mainstream pop are not always bad. It's not because a lot of people like it or because it's pop that it has cheesy lyrics. I, as well as you, have my favorite genres, but I do recognize that every genre has creative minds, who's goal it is to move people with their music. It does not matter if it's rap, metal, soul, pop, jazz, folk,....
@fuckthiscrappysite Go and sign up for there newsletter NOW. On the 29th they are releasing a FULL SONG from there new album for download! Plus they linked some cool recording vids of the new album in the last one.
THIS BAND CAME FROM HEAVEN TO SHOW US THAT GOD CAN BLESS US WITH A THING CALLED "INSOMNIUM" my favourit band ever and forever !! i wanna fucking buy 1000 album copy , and gave it to all my grandsons and their grandsons till 3.000 AC
@TheWitheringWench It's intriguing, actually. The way different listeners can visualise or interpret each song (or aspect of the music) in such a varied way. I for one see the vocals as chaotic, nor do I see them as particularly abrasive as I use to when I initially listened to this style of music. Instead, I see them as very human. I see a weakness. A man with a burden or a sorrow. In fact I see beauty as there is no repression... the deep, gut wrenching emotion is released without obstruction.
Insomnium really are a hidden jewel. Their talent in reality deserves a lot more recognition but fame in the music industry doesn't regulate itself, it's controlled, thus, Baby by Justin Bieber gets over half a billion views, and this only gets 26 thousand. I'll always know in my heart that THIS is beautiful music and I wouldn't give it up for the world and I think I speak for all of us when I say that.
@xBurzurkurx Jesus fucking Christ. You know, just because you and me both like Insomnium doesn't mean that EVERYBODY does. If you like it or not, there are more people that genuinely like Bieber than people who love Insomnium. Just because you think their music is awesome doesn't mean others share your opinion. Metal, and especially death metal is a niche genre (or.. kind of).
@g0r3g4sm Your right, but the music industry is fucked up as bands such as Insomnium get very little support or backing from the "big players" in the industry whereas people like justin beiber get bombed with the shit. If they both had the same amount of support then I'm sure that Insomnium would be the better roconised and it would be the beiber fans making jokes about Insomnium.
@anthoes1 Then shouldn't we all, as appreciators of true musical genius, do all we can to get this band the recognition it deserves? Post this song everywhere that you know and bring it to those who've never heard it.
@g0r3g4sm That or insomnium isnt exposed to the world, I guarantee almost everyone found this through an underground concert or another band such and quo vadis or kalmah
@g0r3g4sm People 'genuinely' like Justin Bieber and other stuff like that cause that's all their exposed to and are too narrow-minded to explore other genres, essentially making it more of a forceful act than actually liking Justin Bieber. We can all agree, and when I say all I literally mean EVERYONE who listens to music on this earth can agree that this song is far more complex and beautiful than Baby. Same goes with classical, you don't have to like it, but you gotta acknowledge it's beauty.
@xBurzurkurx exactly, i have lost all respect for most mainstream artists after being exposed to this type of music. definitely an acquired taste but once you can appreciate it, you realize the immense depth in every song. these guys write their songs, layer upon layer, guitars, singing, percussion, synth, orchestra, an endless list. modern day pop is just drums, synth, and autotune, barely anyone writes for themselves anymore, its despicable. these guys are the light through the clouds.
@xBurzurkurx I highly agree with your comment. Although melodic death metal is an acquired taste, once the appreciation for it is present then you can fully admire the intricacy and sophistication of the songwriting. Also the pure, heartfelt emotion from the vocals. It was bands like Insomnium that actually made me begin to appreciate classical music. In fact since I have gotten into this style, I have deleted approximately 200 artists off my ipod and started afresh.
@pspvampire Yeah, classical music, along with death metal, is a complete experience standing it its own feet, which only a few of us will ever get into. Personally, I listen lots of different kind of stuff, varying from classical all the way to metal. As long as the music is melodic, full of feelings and atmosphere, telling a story of its own, it always has a place in my playlists. =)
I've noticed there are lots of similarities in movie music and melodic metal. I like them both.
@GrandElemental Absolutely. There is also some crossover points, for example the band SepticFlesh, on their latest album the guitarist composed a complete orchestral arrangement that is the backing (and sometimes even the main focus) for nearly the entire album. The orchestral parts were played by the Philharmonic orchestra of Prague. It is more soundtrack-esque rather than classical but it shows that the talent involved and even the style of the two genres is fairly similar.
@xBurzurkurx - i agree with you mate. it does sadden me deeply when the real talent is side-stepped and over-looked for money. but nevertheless, we who recognize real music will continue to support the real musicians of this world. that is all that is needed for bands like Insomnium, who make music for music's sake, and not money.
@xBurzurkurx You're absolutely right my bro, and I would like to point out that Insomnium (IMO) isn't a love-hate band, but rather a love-"haven't heard of them" band. I can say that because everyone I know who actually HAVE heard them love their music. If only the entire world knew of them...or they played at a BIG festival, such as Download or Wacken Open Air. I know I would go to BOTH those festivals if they were playing there :*) \m/
@xBurzurkurx Insomnium is quickly getting the recognition they deserve. They will never get five hundred million views like that beaver kid or whatever, but then that's a good thing. This world sucks enough without a bunch of tools walking around in there tapout hats and southpole shirts talking about how great insomnium is.
@xBurzurkurx In other words, while it's good that they are recognized, I don't ever want to meet anyone in real life who knows about insomnium before I had the chance to show them :D
@xBurzurkurx It's beautiful, for that same reason I think it's best to keep it that way. If this became a "pop" phenomenon, I would probably lose interest. I wouldn't want it to become too mainstream if you know what I mean.
Dude, Insomnium are one of the most known melodic death metal-bands in Finland, they are not unknown nor undervalued or anything like that. And I dont think anyone gives a rat's ass if they have gathered fame in the interweb or not.
@xBurzurkurx i've listened to tons of metal, all subgenres, and nothing i've ever heard can compare to any insomnium song. they are simply the best band out there. i'm glad for me that i discovered them and that they're so untainted and underground, and sad for them that they don't get the recognition they deserve.
@WintersunFTWFTW Same here. Oh, yeah! but i noticed about Children of Bodom's new stuff on April, even when i can't stand them anymore :/ Insomnium doesn't deserve to be so underrated.
HOLLY SHITT!! didnt think it be so soon till they came with another album :) EVERYONE BUY THERE FUCKING ALBUM!! DONT BE CHEAP AND DOWNLOAD IT ONLONE YO. SUPPORT THEM!!
Wow I completely forgot abou Insomnium, it would make sense if they released an album this year. Oh man, ths is so good, I haven't listened to them in ages, they are fantastic. The sound equivalent of sorrow.
Nice intro. :)

But there ARE some talented artists in the genre, though VERY few. Michael Jackson was just awesome.

I for one see the vocals as chaotic, nor do I see them as particularly abrasive as I use to when I initially listened to this style of music. Instead, I see them as very human. I see a weakness. A man with a burden or a sorrow. In fact I see beauty as there is no repression... the deep, gut wrenching emotion is released without obstruction.

We can all agree, and when I say all I literally mean EVERYONE who listens to music on this earth can agree that this song is far more complex and beautiful than Baby. Same goes with classical, you don't have to like it, but you gotta acknowledge it's beauty.

@xBurzurkurx exactly, i have lost all respect for most mainstream artists after being exposed to this type of music. definitely an acquired taste but once you can appreciate it, you realize the immense depth in every song. these guys write their songs, layer upon layer, guitars, singing, percussion, synth, orchestra, an endless list. modern day pop is just drums, synth, and autotune, barely anyone writes for themselves anymore, its despicable. these guys are the light through the clouds.

@xBurzurkurx I highly agree with your comment. Although melodic death metal is an acquired taste, once the appreciation for it is present then you can fully admire the intricacy and sophistication of the songwriting. Also the pure, heartfelt emotion from the vocals. It was bands like Insomnium that actually made me begin to appreciate classical music. In fact since I have gotten into this style, I have deleted approximately 200 artists off my ipod and started afresh.

@pspvampire Yeah, classical music, along with death metal, is a complete experience standing it its own feet, which only a few of us will ever get into. Personally, I listen lots of different kind of stuff, varying from classical all the way to metal. As long as the music is melodic, full of feelings and atmosphere, telling a story of its own, it always has a place in my playlists. =)
I've noticed there are lots of similarities in movie music and melodic metal. I like them both.

@GrandElemental Absolutely. There is also some crossover points, for example the band SepticFlesh, on their latest album the guitarist composed a complete orchestral arrangement that is the backing (and sometimes even the main focus) for nearly the entire album. The orchestral parts were played by the Philharmonic orchestra of Prague. It is more soundtrack-esque rather than classical but it shows that the talent involved and even the style of the two genres is fairly similar.

@xBurzurkurx - i agree with you mate. it does sadden me deeply when the real talent is side-stepped and over-looked for money. but nevertheless, we who recognize real music will continue to support the real musicians of this world. that is all that is needed for bands like Insomnium, who make music for music's sake, and not money.

Justin Bieber and his music will soon be forced out of business. It always happens. Who needs Spears or Augilera now?
THIS will be listened to through generations, like Metallica and Ozzy, as it is a real masterpiece.

@xBurzurkurx You're absolutely right my bro, and I would like to point out that Insomnium (IMO) isn't a love-hate band, but rather a love-"haven't heard of them" band. I can say that because everyone I know who actually HAVE heard them love their music. If only the entire world knew of them...or they played at a BIG festival, such as Download or Wacken Open Air. I know I would go to BOTH those festivals if they were playing there :*) \m/

@xBurzurkurx Insomnium is quickly getting the recognition they deserve. They will never get five hundred million views like that beaver kid or whatever, but then that's a good thing. This world sucks enough without a bunch of tools walking around in there tapout hats and southpole shirts talking about how great insomnium is.

@xBurzurkurx In other words, while it's good that they are recognized, I don't ever want to meet anyone in real life who knows about insomnium before I had the chance to show them :D
musixauce3000 5 months ago
@xBurzurkurx It's beautiful, for that same reason I think it's best to keep it that way. If this became a "pop" phenomenon, I would probably lose interest. I wouldn't want it to become too mainstream if you know what I mean.

Dude, Insomnium are one of the most known melodic death metal-bands in Finland, they are not unknown nor undervalued or anything like that. And I dont think anyone gives a rat's ass if they have gathered fame in the interweb or not.

@xBurzurkurx i've listened to tons of metal, all subgenres, and nothing i've ever heard can compare to any insomnium song. they are simply the best band out there. i'm glad for me that i discovered them and that they're so untainted and underground, and sad for them that they don't get the recognition they deserve.

@WintersunFTWFTW Same here. Oh, yeah! but i noticed about Children of Bodom's new stuff on April, even when i can't stand them anymore :/ Insomnium doesn't deserve to be so underrated.
