"This is one of the most beautiful songs I've heard. " That's Insomnium
Facts there's other great Melodeath bands, but Insomnium are the best in my opinion because the emotion they capture in their songs is just incredible not to say other Melodeath bands don't but with Insomnium it's every song, Shadows of the Dying Sun, One For Sorrow, Weighed Down By Sorrow, The Promethean Song, While We Sleep, etc. They're just a phenomenal band.
Have you heard Omnium Gatherum - The Unknowing? That's what I call beautiful ❤
@@Bosco-nq2kk then you have never lost anyone close to you
@@Bosco-nq2kk well maybe you just don't appreciate music then, no other way I can explain you shitting on a song that makes grown men cry
@@Bosco-nq2kk This song IMO captivates the feeling of loss and the range of emotions stemming from it. I do understand that it obviously doesn't do it for everyone, so I don't think it's fair for anyone to attack you for it if you don't feel what others feel.
Insomnium are one of those bands you kinda have to help you feel when you have trouble. Like, when you need to feel a bit gloomy and explore those feelings, Insomnium are the band I turn towards. A lot of their songs portray themes like sorrow and loss for these reasons I believe, because it is good sometimes to let yourself go and feel things that perhaps you have been holding back.
If you wanted to listen to more of their stuff / react to more. I'd heartily recommend:
While We Sleep
Through The Shadows
One For Sorrow (The music video especially, but the song itself is quite emotional for me)
Ephemeral
Thank you for the awesome reaction and the content you create, much love
hell yes on all the song recs
agree.. Its my "go to" band every winter when the darkness is holding the mood down.
seriously insomnium is magic for me. when i'm depressed and ruined they do some kinda shit to me and it makes me feel better. easily my all time favorite band.
Revelation (with the lyric video), mindblowing and uplifting,
Out To the Sea, the amazing guitar part... and the whole atmosphere.
They are Masters of creating that "Aura".
Heart like a grave? Music video is literally telling you that come visit Finland :D
'"Heart like a Grave" is one of the greatest recordings of melodic death metal.
As well as "Shadows of the Dying Sun"
@@nickycamaro And Winter's Gate ^^
Man, Insomnium is real art. Melodic death metal in general takes you on a journey, (for example winters gate ) provokes true feelings. My fav from Insomnium is bereavement. Not very popular song but i love it to death.
@@araquiel3087 Or In the Halls of Awaiting. Or like every Insomnium release tbh
Amen.
Insomnium make some of the most beautiful, if not THE most beautiful music in all of metal. What's crazy is their song making is only getting better as they evolve: better vocals, instrumentals, production, etc.
yes!! one of my favorite bands
@Morbid Angel is better than Death what's funny?
@wickedguitarguy They are pretty popular given their genre. about 600k followers on fb
Man I dropped everything I was doing to see this reaction, great song from an amazing band
Insominium are one of the most comunicative and soul-piercing band in this fucking world! They are awesome on this!!!
PLEASE. Do a *one take* Reaction to Winter's Gate by Insomnium!!! It's their most incredible album, and it's a concept album that forms a single 40minute flowing song of perfection. The lyrics were a short story about Vikings going on a raid, and dying on their way home while chasing a the treasure of a great golden wolf with six legs, the come upon a gate that was made by the Gods, and then the demons of winter are released from it (sort of). It was written by the bassist/vocalist/lyracist that won an award in Finland from what I read. They brought the idea to Nuclear Blast records and they approved making an album out of it. It's a mix of their special flavor of melodic death metal but they added a touch of black metal influence to it as well.
It is my favorite album to play through on guitar and one of my favorites to sing along to.
You will absolutely love it, I hope to see you make a video on it!!
OMFG YES! seriously one of my all time favorite albums, i usually just have the whole thing on repeat most days.
I like the Album Shadows of the Dying Sun more, but luckily Winters gate is like one song, so i can say its my favourite SONG by them ;) See what i did there
All of the yes.
I endorse this. One of my favorite, most relistenable songs/albums.
Shadows of the Dying Sun is my favorite personally, but they are all amazing. I'm so glad I found this band
Insomnium - Valediction, The promethean song, Shadows of the dying son, or While we sleep
i think "just pick insomnium, itll be good"
While We Sleep is my favorite.
he already did "While we sleep" in 2019
This is truly a beautiful song, there's so much dynamicism, contrast, melody, dissonance, harmony, brutality. It's all there, and the lyrics are great too!
You should definitely listen and react more Insomnium! They have so much epic and beautiful songs. Greetings from Finland!
Boy, where have you been? Insomnium is one of the best bands in metal and at the top of my list. They cover every emotion and always end up laying you at the gates of peace. Dig deeper and you’ll find everything you could need.
O - Orbit Culture - The Shadowing
Great request!
this song is awesome!
100%
Yassss!!!
These guys are so talented!
O - Omnium Gatherum - The Unknowing
Insomnium "while We Sleep" "Through the Shadow"
He's reacted to While we sleep I believe lol
@@jordang9152 😂 😆 😛 no
@@Buffalodan66...yes he has lol. Search for it
@@jordang9152 i'm sure he has. "Through the Shadow" it is...
ua-cam.com/video/icUYJ0oES7s/v-deo.html
According to Wikipedia, Niilo, the vocalist/lyricist has a degree in literature and history of culture. Even though English is not his mother tongue, this fact just shines through his lyrics. Definitely some poetic veins going on there.
Hell yeah.. I've read that about him ... thanks for highlighting this
If you like this, I think Wintersun - Loneliness (Winter) would be a good choice for [W].
You can feel the emotions in the music. It's such a haunting song.
Most definitely! It would be such a good song to react to!
^ this
Any song from them is epic!
Godly songs but I like time just a tad bit more
So would be Wolfheart or Whispered
Insomnium is just one of those bands (or maybe THE band) that understands perfectly how to put such delicate topics like grief and sorrow into music that you can really feel and relate to. They are perhaps the only band that I know of where those growling vocals are not really "harsh", but instead really pleasing, soul-touching and almost hauntingly beautiful. You could play any of their songs to a person who really dislikes metal music in general and you would get a reaction like "wait... this is metal, but it's... nice?", because it's thoroughly enjoyable for anyone. Every time I listen to one of their songs I can feel the emotions they've put into it, and I'm picturing the solitude of those gloomy autumn days in the finnish taiga forests with their fir and spruce trees, fog rolling through the landscape and a crackling fireplace flaring in a wooden cabin. This music just ticks all the boxes to take you out of your everyday hustle and to put you in a place of serenity and composure, giving your mind a well-deserved rest. For a follow-up reaction I would suggest "Heart Like A Grave" or "Weighed Down With Sorrow", which are a bit slower, but equally phenomenal.
My girlfriend cant stand metal... and she cant stand them as well.
@@julien2231 She's not the one then
@@Pipezag lol
One of my favorite bands ever. They do not have a single bad song. Literally you could have reacted to any of them.
ever since i lost Mum back in sept 2021 , im finding alot of Insomnium tracks leaves a tear in my eye,,what an amazing band
Adding a suggestion for "M": Mors Principium Est - Death is the Beginning
We are the sleep too is a great song to explore!
Mors is AMAZING
Mors Principium Est are the "unsung" (pun intended) heroes of MeloDeath.
Amazing band, I would maybe suggest also - Mors Principium Est - Lost in Starless Aeon
Fuck Yeah! Love Andy's style
Hi Alex, found you and your reaction videos recently. Insomnium is very important band to me and I think you really understand what Insomnium is about. You are absolutely right with your comments. Keep doing these reaction videos, these are nice to watch. You are such nice person. Best regards from Finland!
One of my favourite songs by Insomnium is "In the Halls of Awaiting" not only musically but also lyrically
M - mgla - exercises in futility I or age of excuse II
YES
Everything from Mgla ! Absolute killer band
Another footnote on a postcard to nowhere
@Morbid Angel is better than Death MA sucks ass
@Morbid Angel is better than Death your nick is boring and Morbid is boring also
Its a beautiful song, filled with emotion. Great reaction Alex \m/
You gotta try Wintersun - Loneliness (winter) its in the same category as this one. Jari wrote the song after loosing his dad, and its so packed with emotion!
More insomnium for sure whenever possible!!
Been waiting for Insomnium
I'm still waiting for Alcest. I think they would blow his mind
Judas Priest - A touch of Evil
Oh yes. That lead in that song is phenomenal.
Yes, do it Alex.
J: Judas Priest - Painkiller
K: Katatonia - Forsaker
He's done painkiller before
For Katatonia there are far better songs.
W- Wintersun - Lonliness
Finnish and Skandinavian melo death, is so beautiful, touching and emotional that some time it feels like you just want to cry and on the other hand you feel some calm and restfull. My English is not very good, sry about that.
Wow, this was really great. I'd never heard Insomnium before. Thanks for introducing me to it.
ua-cam.com/video/icUYJ0oES7s/v-deo.html
@@WanderingMunchers Thanks for the link. That was a great song. I'll have to really get into their whole library now.
@@joshuas193 you're welcome
Insomnium - Valediction is one of my favourite songs. This one is amazing too!
Thanks for bringing me this band! That was an emotional punch and I loved it...will definitely be listing to more!
Insomnium is incredible. One of my favorite melodic death metal bands.
"In the Groves of Death" is my favorite song by Insomnium if you feel the need to delve a little deeper into what they've put out. It's a little like this song in that its a longer song that doesn't follow most traditional song structures, and it's really all about the atmosphere.
One of their best songs. I can't hear it while driving car because I always get too distracted by it. Great piece of real art.
Above the Weeping World album, in it's entirety, is what started Insomium for me. Every single song
For "S" you need to do SepticFlesh, Portrait of a headless man!
It's amazing!
yehh
Leprous - Contaminate Me (live from Rockefeller Music Hall)
J- Jobforacowboy (entombment of a machine) or (Ruination)
Yes THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do entombment of a machine
Or Embedded!
i'd have to say Tarnished Gluttony
I see you're a Gojira fan as well...
@@Toulis91 love that song one there best songs by miles
Anathema with the song One Last Goodbye...simply the best song you can hear about losing somenone you love...believe me.
I'm a simple man, I see an Insomnium reaction, I stop working, I listen then I like. Awesome band. For J, the best pick would be Jinjer...but you already made a few... :)
Insomnium is beautiful
I genuinely cry EVERY SINGLE TIME I listen to this song, and many other songs from Insomnium. They're just unbelievable. I love them so much. I recommend you to listen to some of my favorites:
Heart Like a Grave
One For Sorrow
Winter's Gate (Pt.4)
Daughter Of The Moon
Glad to see more Insomnium content, but just wanted to point out that you have experienced them before on your "While We Sleep" vid. Glad you revisited them though, they deserve all the recognition!
I ve already been on their concert twice and it was amazing.. Actually two of the best concerts i have seen so far! These guys are so chilled, they learned a lot of Czech swearwords and they applauded the Czech beer on the concert :D
This is the second video that you n ever did of Insomnium. You reacted to While We Sleep last year. Found Insomnium just last year fell in love right away. All of there songs are about sorrow. Loss and Finish lore.
J - Jinjer please
[S] Sonata Arctica- White Pearl, Black Oceans
[T] Tobias Sammet’s Avantasia- The Scarecrow
Hell yes for Avantasia!!! We need a reaction to that masterpiece - Scarecrow!
Insomnium has always been one of my favourite metal bands.They are so good.You would also like Be'lakor.
Also suggest Kalmah for K
Insomnium is incredible! You need to do Winter's Gate (pt. 1-7) in one shot. you can break up the videos to post, but please listen to it all in one sitting. It's one, seven part, 40 minute song. Its absolutely incredible. Insomnium deserves so much more attention than they get from reactors! Dive in! For the letter T - The Acacia Strain - Sensory Deprivation. You'd be the first major reactor to do this band!
Hey Alex, I’ve been watching your channel for awhile now and I have to say You are an AMAZING public speaker
You really keep everybody entertained whenever you talk and it’s amazing
Good job man
Dude my favorite metal band ever! All there songs are amazing! You feel loss but also hope.
I miss my Maria so much. Since she passed away nearly two years ago, I have been in agony. I see her everywhere. When people talk to me, I wonder how she would have put it and what she'd think of my response. I think of how her eyes would flash wish exasperation when I sneaked a fart in the queue at the grocer's only to blame someone else's behind for the misdeed, promising impending doom once we were outta there.
But most of all I remember the nights just laying there, talking. The heat of her body against mine, her taking my hand, whispering, "I love you". Sometimes we'd lie like that for hours, with or without words because none were needed. I think of everything about her and what we had. She was the only one for me and she took my heart with her. I refuse to let go of her because I simply can not. Love you baby, forever and always. 😭😭😭
Welcome to Melodic Death Metal. Insomnium is one of the greatest!
The greatest at this moment
One of the best songs by them must be Heart Like a Grave!
Insomnium is another type of art ❤️ You shall listen their latest album " heart like a grave" I'm sure you will enjoy it
03:32 That's exactly what happens at Insomnium concerts: You have some people moving super fast while some are just swaying slowly with a relaxed look on their face!
wonderful Insomnium ❤
O is for Orbit Culture for sure. they just released a new video yesterday.
The Shadowing
Sun of all
🤞
I can't stress more (heart like a grave) i covered it once i saw it... Again (heart like a grave) u'll know who was the so xalled girl you said he lost. The whole album is based on an epic story of love, waiting, rejoice, and death:(
Insomnium. It was the last show I saw before this corona *****.
The show was amazing. Everybody had a huge smile eventhough the music is so somber. ☺️
Great great reaction for the "pale morning star" ❤
I saw a comment on your last Judas Priest video suggesting their 1984 song, The Sentinel. The 1986 live version from their Fuel For Life tour is absolutely mindblowing. A newly sober Rob Halford is at his absolute peak and the whole performance is a joy to experience. In my opinion, it's one of their best and heaviest songs. So, for J, I'd like to suggest Judas Priest - The Sentinel, live from their Fuel For Life tour in 1986. If not for your ABCs-series, you'd be missing out if you did not listen and react to it at another time!
Judas Priest - Breaking the Law
He already reacted to that
@@wulf2863 I was looking up which ones he did, didn't find it anywhere
For J:
Judas Priest - Judas Rising
Judicator - The Queen of all cities
Jane's Addiction - Mountain Song
The best fuck...ng melodic death metal song
Well, actually, there's plenty of them but this one is great too
nope, Death is
I'd say Lethe or Punish my Heaven by Dark Tranquillity are the best but this one is definetly in my top 10
This song describes perfectly what the melodic death metal is. Such an amazing and emocional song, it generates me goosebumps.
Totally agree. In Mourning are up there too.
Revocation - That Which Consumes All Things
I'd love to see a Revocation reaction for R, big agree! I also wanna see him react to Ulcerate
@@AgainstTheeWickedlyMusic Ulcerate.... damn good call for U!
I N S O M N I U M
🤘
For J, I'd love to see you take on Job For A Cowboy, since you never have! They're a sick band, and normally I'd suggest Entombment of a Machine, however, I think their musicianhip on the albums after that would blow you away!
Instant thumbs up... haven't watched yet... can't wait to see your reaction. So glad so many of us wanted this yesterday and got our wish!!🤘🤘
[P] - Parasite Inc. - "The Pulse Of The Dead"
I'd also recommend once and for all
Both of them!! \m/
O - Omnium Gatherum - New World Shadows
Cooooomeeeee and seeeeee
K : Katatonia - The Winter Of Our Passing
M : Moonspell - The Greater Good
T : Termina - The Abyss
🤘Keep on with the Great Content Bro🤘
Judas Priest - Beyond The Realms Of Death, Living After Midnight, Diamonds and Rust
Jason Richardson - Tendinitis or anything off of the “I” album
Or some Born of Osiris !!! xiv/behold
This album (Heart Like a Grave) blew me away, instant favorite. I mean I knew it was going to be great after hearing this song and the title track, pre-release... But then when my ears bathed in the melancholic splendor of songs like "Mute is My Sorrow", "Twilight Trails", and "The Offering" it vaulted to album of the year for me, passing Evergrey's "the Atlantic" (another excellent album).
Insominium - Out to the sea. Instant playlist trust me.
J- Jinjer - Home Back
Dude if you liked this song, check out their album "Shadows of the Dying Sun." "While We Sleep" will knock you on your ass.
I've listened to this song over and over since it came out. Its truly epic. Never looked up the lyrics until I watched this video and holy shit. I've not lost someone as close as the lyrics describe but damn. I'm practically in tears. This song just went up another level to me.
Insomnium -"twilight trails", mixture, sadness, anger and hope. It's from the same album as "pale morning star".
My favorite song on the album for sure.
(J) Jinjer - Home Back
Insomnium - in the groves of death
Do it.
About damn time!!! I’ve been pitching bands like this to this channel for so long!!! Please review more “not too well known” bands!!!
He did While We Sleep a while back as well. I hope he will one day react to Dark Tranquillity
You said ones if I'm not mistaken you are more of a metalhead now. But now you are starting to understand what metal is al about and it's not just the music. So nice to see you're starting to feel it in your soul.
J- Judas Priest - No surrender, Judas is rising, or Redeemer of souls
"You got another thing coming - Judas Priest !
Insomnium is fantastic! Check out "Heart Like a Grave" next with the video. Beautiful!
My favourite band 🙂 love from Canada 🇨🇦. Finnish legends🤘
J - Jinjer: Home Back
L - LANDMVRKS: Lost in a Wave
O - Orbit Culture: Open Eye
S - Shadow of Intent: Malediction
T - Tallah: Overconfidence
U - Upon A Burning Body: King of Diamonds
YASS THIS is literally my favourite band ever and one of their best fucking songs.
Cant wait for him to get 1 million subs and say I was here before 1 mil
First band I have seen and heard live.. I instantly fell in love with them.
This song, and their equally amazing Heart Like A Grave have gotten me through my darkest moments during the loss of my mom, and your description of the conflicting emotions of grief, and your summary of this song is so spot on I have chills! Please, Please react to Heart Like A Grave!!!
L for Leprous - Slave (live) please!!!!
Just been getting into this band since I saw a drum playthrough of The Sky Is Red, then that was followed up with a live performance of The Sky Is Red, and now I am delving deeper into the catalog. So damn good
@@SpaghettiWithMeatSauce indeed 😍 they are amazing! Each album of them is so perfect! So glad that you like their music 😊
Hard battle between Leprous and LANDMVRKS for me on this letter 😬
@@lurrutia0109 Rewind might be my favorite song of theirs as of this very instance but man I have a ways to go to get through everything. Can't believe I've slept on them so long.
Insomnium are masters man. Yoy nned to check out Drawn to black
Excellent reaction as always Sir! I've been a fan of these guys for well over a decade. There's something truly special about them.
I really liked this band. Then I went to a live show in Baltimore last spring, now they are easily one of my very most cherished bands. Appreciated the reaction, a powerful response.
Crossing my fingers for Jinjer for J! They released a new video for the song Home Back That I think you’ll love!
Bro, you have to react to "heart like a grave" After the ABCs of metal yourney! Don't sleep on this
K- Kamelot - Forever. If you can, the live version, with Roy Khan is unbelievable.
Weighed down with sorrow. A song for people with depression. That song have walked with me through years
