    "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.

      @@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

    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!!

  • @linkinpark4evaaaa
    @linkinpark4evaaaa 3 роки тому +32

    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.

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!

    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. 😭😭😭

    Alex my dude, thank you so much for choosing this song. I had recommended this song on your "H" video.
    This song means so much to me personally. It released in the year following my grandmother's death. She was the cornerstone of our family and one of the kindest, warmest people I've ever known. The very first time I heard this song I came to tears and even now my eyes water as the words and emotions flow through me. I imagine it from the point of view of my grandpa, who thankfully is still with us, and all the pain he goes through on a daily basis to not have someone with him that he was married to for over 55 years. It's a sobering song of loss, pain, and the hope of reuniting at the end.
    Thank you so much again for picking the song I recommended. I'm glad you enjoyed and understand it much the same way as myself. Peace.

    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).
