I am struggling with depression.. But I have been listening to Insomnium and Kataklysm any chance I get... It's like their music is helping me through my dark days..
try to get angry as hell,death metal will help,when you get soo angry you will no longer be depressed because you'll want to fuck some shit up,hope that helps bud
I was on antidepressants for 20 years because of depression, myself. It's a nasty condition and I hope I can manage without them (been off of them for a few weeks now).
Walk away from the world Give in all you got Do not bother to try Fight 'til the last drop Walk among the shadows Leave your mark behind Lose yourself into grey mass Make statement of your life And I feel tired, empty and hollow, heart-broken inside And I feel this life has nothing for me anymore And I feel revived, sacred and honoured, one of the kind And I feel this life is something I was chosen for Let in the anxiety Make the most of every day Dwell on guilt and misery There is tomorrow after today You cannot win always But you can lose every time You alone have the power You only hold the control One fleeting moment Few short-lived seconds Mere short flicker in time For the shadow to grow and die

All these long years I've been listening to this wonderful song. But I never actually knew the lyrics until now! It feels quite wholesome to finally sing them now! Thank you kind friend!
In the chorus, the way the dirty and clean vocals overlap and create the most perfect harmony of sounds - perfect enough to give me cold chills - is just unbelievable. It's a sound hard to achieve and that's one reason I have come to love this band.
Insomnium has to be one of my top 5 favorites. You can never go wrong with melo death. Every melo death band I find, I love. There is never one band I will dislike.
Best melodeath bands imo: Insomnium Amon Amarth Be'lakor Noumena Omnium Gatherum Berserkyd (metal guy who creates his own awesome music without vocals.)
Finally caught them live for the first time on the fourth try. Age restriction on the first two, then Covid. Saw them with Enslaved. To this day I swear the only thing that got me moving in the morning and kept me from off myself in highschool was Ephemeral. Didn't play it during their setlist, so now I have an excuse to see them again.
This band is purely amazing..lyrics, guitars, drums, nothing is overdone nor less than should be. Even their old music is just as outstanding! These guys should be on top 10 billboards, not that untalented pop garbage.
+iNTeNCiTY911 I totally agree with you that Insomnium and all the other good music like classical, jazz, real rock, and blues should be more popular than most of the talentless mainstream music that many kids in the US blast out.
Very rarely do you have such a good contrast between clean & unclean vocals. The guitars are epic. The drumming fits this song perfectly. Truly an exceptional piece of art.
For everything that exists, good or bad, there is always an idiot that complains about it. You just can't make absolutely everyone happy with something.
Only rarely do I conment videos... This one will be such an exception... Is it only me, or is it their furious sadness, that kind of sorrow that makes you scream with rage, that makes these masterpieces so touching? I feel it resonating, while I'm no frggin' emo, I just feel the urge to go outside and roar it all out
I think it's Insomnium's orchestration that sets them apart for me. In Flames, Be'lakor, Omnium Gatherum etc. all have great melody, but the dynamics and layers in Insomnium's songs put them over the top. Even when there are cleans, the growls are still present underneath. The base, rhythm guitar, and harmonized leads all complement to create an immense sound. Other melodeath bands write great songs, but lack the grandeur.
What an absolutely emotional masterpiece. I'm so falling in love with this band. They are filling that melodic death metal hole that In Flames left behind after Clayman.
Thank you guys & gals.Through your comments I've discovered new bands and have been listening to metal for over 30 years.Just seems, it will never end...\m/
I just discovered these guys last year....so I feel the same....discovered Kamelot but like 3-4 years after Roy Khan left the group....discovered Nightwish about 3 years ago....of course Tarja was no longer in the group....it sucks....here in the US were hearing mostly crap or rock songs from the 70's and 80's. UA-cam has been my best source to find all these great northern European bands.
I sort of recently discovered them also. I grew up on the Maiden, Metallica then early death metal such as Death, Morbid Angel, Entombed, Deicide etc. A friend intro"d me to Arch Enemy which I liked and then Amon Amarth which I really liked but there are sooo many bands compared to the 90s. I tried listening to many others but either the vocals annoyed my (CoB) or they used that horrible Zakk Wylde squeal. I fucking hate that squeal. I think Zakk over uses it but for ANY other player to use it is excuseless. Behemoth, could be wrong but I think they used it on a number of albums which turned me off them but their last album was fucking amazing, very very good writing. Anyways, this album was one of few recommended that I liked instantly. The first two tracks on it are about as good as it gets. Love how this track opens. Amazing. Th sad thing is with so many good bands, I know I am missing out on many that just take awhile to grow on me and they aften become my faves.

I remember hearing this when I was 15 first becoming a metalhead. I'm still a metalhead of course, but the memories are best when you first experience them.
Damn man,it brings tears to an old mans eyes,tears of pride amongst Finnish metal bands. The guitar solo takes me out from my livingroom,into depths of Finnish forests. Impressive!
this is unrealy perfect and inspiration metal of Finland... i want to live in there спасибо парни за вашу музыку. она тёплая ) с прошедшими праздниками 2021 still listen ? ❤️🤘
What made realize that I'm too far gone into extreme genres of metal during this song is the fact that I understand the lyrics during the growls better than during the cleans
Sheer brilliance! Indeed, very epic! Why haven't I heard of Insomnium before? WTF-they should be everywhere! At the very least there should be 10 mil views, I think it's much better than BMTH, BVB, PTV, SWS, hell it's better than all genres too. If only I could make my opinion turn to fact!
all the chorus parts just give me chills.... what an amazing song , idk why people preffer to listen to pop music or that fcking reggaeton music like "despacito" when masterpieces like this dont even get 10 mill views , whats wrong with those people ?
edgar morales I don't why this band doesn't make me love them like black dahlia murder or At the Gates does. Remember, genrations have different tastes and that affects the music produced, some of it is alright but I can't deny there are many shit one in the top 40.

Walk away from the world
Give in all you got
Do not bother to try
Fight 'til the last drop
Walk among the shadows
Leave your mark behind
Lose yourself into grey mass
Make statement of your life
And I feel tired, empty and hollow, heart-broken inside
And I feel this life has nothing for me anymore
And I feel revived, sacred and honoured, one of the kind
And I feel this life is something I was chosen for
Let in the anxiety
Make the most of every day
Dwell on guilt and misery
There is tomorrow after today
You cannot win always
But you can lose every time
You alone have the power
You only hold the control
One fleeting moment
Few short-lived seconds
Mere short flicker in time
For the shadow to grow and die
thanx:3
FRIEDA HOFFMANN
We all need it :D
Insomnium without lyrics written up somewhere...hmm feels odd trying to figure out what Niilo is saying :D
Interesting how the lyrics of this song contradict each other
This song is just so perfect. I'm so glad Insomnium exists.
+Carl Boman are these guys Finnish?
+erik österlund Yes they are.
***** Oh my cat, YES! Check out Be'lakor!

Thnx for the lyrics!
All these long years I've been listening to this wonderful song. But I never actually knew the lyrics until now!
It feels quite wholesome to finally sing them now!
Thank you kind friend!
Insomnium and Dark Tranquillity, are on the top of melodeath.
I think you've forgotten Wintersun ;)
+Chick Poof yeah I totally forgot to mention them. Actually Insomnium, DT & Wintersun are my fav of all time. Hope Jari forgive me 😃
You guys would benefit from listening to Be'Lakor!
Arch Enemy, Amon marth Kalmah, Children of Bodom. . .
But i love Insomnium for their style. . .just takes you to another dimension *.*
Top of melodeath? you should really try some Noumena
Never had any song combined hope and despair together and made unspeakable beauty like this one.
In the chorus, the way the dirty and clean vocals overlap and create the most perfect harmony of sounds - perfect enough to give me cold chills - is just unbelievable. It's a sound hard to achieve and that's one reason I have come to love this band.
2:55-3:24. That solo that riffs omg I'm speechless, there is no word to describe my feelings
adamsın
Me too dear
Proof that most of the greatest metal music in the world come from Finland.
yeah i agree
Finland and England. Two tie for First.
Metal means Scandinavia and vice versa
Wintersun, baby💪
Well Meshuggah ain't from Finland but I get your point
It is a masterpiece. The guitars are nuts. It's nice & heavy without being boring. Good melodic chorus too.
This song's such an emotional rollercoaster, praising the duality of life. Love it.
Insomnium has to be one of my top 5 favorites. You can never go wrong with melo death. Every melo death band I find, I love. There is never one band I will dislike.
Nice profile pic. Rings of Saturn is amazing.
Andrew Kescenovitz thought only i noticed
have you heard of Wolfheart?
Wolfheart are great but often a bit too hard for longer listenings.
Adam the awesome person Tbh Woldheart didn't do much for me, I should probably listen more but it just sorta bored me.
Best melodeath bands imo:
Insomnium
Amon Amarth
Be'lakor
Noumena
Omnium Gatherum
Berserkyd (metal guy who creates his own awesome music without vocals.)
wolfheart
and Before The Dawn (ex band of Wolfheart's frontman)
1°- Dark tranquillity 2°- Insomnium...
and swallow the sun
and many more
Haven't heard this guys in a while. They were my favorite band in highschool and their lyrics resonated with me.
Go see them live! They are touring!
Finally caught them live for the first time on the fourth try. Age restriction on the first two, then Covid. Saw them with Enslaved. To this day I swear the only thing that got me moving in the morning and kept me from off myself in highschool was Ephemeral.

Exactly. Amen brother
But it's good reality.
The riffs in this song are literally perfect. Like, seriously. They're absolutely beautiful.
Very rarely do you have such a good contrast between clean & unclean vocals. The guitars are epic. The drumming fits this song perfectly. Truly an exceptional piece of art.
I can't figure out why people hate on their clean vocals, they are haunting as hell.
Too whiny and jarring. Their albums without clean vocals are vastly superior
For everything that exists, good or bad, there is always an idiot that complains about it. You just can't make absolutely everyone happy with something.
@@DanielSanchez-it1kiAgree with you.
Perfect song \\m//
Scandinavian metal bands rock!!!

Is it only me, or is it their furious sadness, that kind of sorrow that makes you scream with rage, that makes these masterpieces so touching? I feel it resonating, while I'm no frggin' emo, I just feel the urge to go outside and roar it all out
I feel ya dude🖤
So amazing. Lyrics are perfectly fir with my current emotional state..
Daniel Neroese you will always find a song from insomnium that fits :)
+Kitswitcher 267 I had to agree.
Hearing this song live was one of my top experiences, every time I'm listening to this I feel amazing. Awesome band.
Where did you see them play?
@@SuperSkullSplitter Greece, last year.

And then there's Wintersun. They take this to the next level.
Amen^
Dark Tranquillity did it first though.
*bass
Fancy words, cool man
Wish I had discovered these guys a few years ago, but I’m glad I’m discovering them now.
it's not too late.. music has no expirations..
Some "things" will echo for eternity. INSOMINUM is one of those things.
That build towards the chorus is fucking perfect
Hope you know Down with the sun
Insomnium are the greatest melodic death metal band in existence, period.
+Neverbloom Amon Amarth
Super Matt They're okay, but nowhere near the emotion and atmosphere Insomnium have.
+Neverbloom You must never forget Dark Tranquillity...;)
+Neverbloom Have you heard Daylight Dies? Check out 'A life less lived' I think the title is. Another super fantastic, equally melodic group of guys.
+Neverbloom I think Be'lakor are great contenders. I think you should check them out, their album 'Of Breath and Bone' is a masterpiece.
This is truly what Melodic Death Metal is at its core. Truly an amazing masterpiece.
So much epicness and emotions behind their lyrics and melodies.
Something about the chorus really gets me, I need more songs like this
What an absolutely emotional masterpiece. I'm so falling in love with this band. They are filling that melodic death metal hole that In Flames left behind after Clayman.
My suggestion for getting more of them would be : *Inserts their Discography*
Layman, bun intended, is one of the best In Flames.
What's better?
Both.
Thank you guys & gals.Through your comments I've discovered new bands and have been listening to metal for over 30 years.Just seems, it will never end...\m/
Chris Athanassiadis rock on dude!
Come to Brazil, please!!! I love this band!!
Carl Oz ❤️❤️❤️
Einer der wenigen Songs, der einfach jedesmal etwas in mir auslöst.
Excellent. And what happens around the beginning of the fifth minute is cool... Patient people are rewarded.
The bridge/interlude is so amaizing! They are so good are making music that has a lot of emotional impact..thats why they are so special!
couldnt agree more
Why am I only just discovering these guys?
Me too...even though I'm Finnish...damn.
I just discovered these guys last year....so I feel the same....discovered Kamelot but like 3-4 years after Roy Khan left the group....discovered Nightwish about 3 years ago....of course Tarja was no longer in the group....it sucks....here in the US were hearing mostly crap or rock songs from the 70's and 80's.

Such a unique band. Hits the spot
I didn't know I liked melodeath until I randomly clicked on an Insomnium video. Whoooaaaaa
2021
I love this band so much
This band is life changing
melo death the greatest music genre ever hands down
Even Vivaldi.
Such beautiful, inspiring, amazing melodic sounds going into my being!
Damn man,it brings tears to an old mans eyes,tears of pride amongst Finnish metal bands. The guitar solo takes me out from my livingroom,into depths of Finnish forests. Impressive!
The guitar melodies never cease to amaze me.
Awesome song, great band!!
Saw these guys last night. They played this song, and it was incredible live! They are some damn good musicians!
Insomnium is my life! Each song is so damn beautiful 😢😢
2:54.....absolute chills. Love this song so, so much.
This is almost like a church choir singing in the style of metal music, it’s just so orchestral and graceful
epic song, epic video.
Once i start playing this song, i cant stop.....
The lyrics and the sound of the song is motivational. I feel like i'm being picked up by invisible wings.
I listen to their songs everyday! Amazing band!!! Love these guys!
I`m mad with myself now!!!! How could I take so long time to listen to this band? They are great!!
Perfection in every form of the word. I am surprised I have not heard of this band a long time ago. The day before yesterday I became a fan.
Holy shit, first time listening to these guys and I fucken dig it.
such a great, uplifting song...
The lead guitar melody is hypnotizing
this is unrealy perfect and inspiration metal of Finland... i want to live in there

It's as easy as you want.
Maybe.

AMAZING BAND
LOVE THEIR SONGS AND MUSIC ♥\m/♥
THIS IS SIMPLY PERFECT EXCELLENT
Saw them live two weeks ago. Incredible.
4 minutes and 38 seconds of shivers down my spine
There is no way you can be better at melodeath than insomnium
listen to Anterior
Kei Synester yes Anterior is great, but there are too many similar bands out there and Insomnium is very rare and unique.
+Malkhaz Jokhadze Try Be'lakor or Dark Tranquillity! I personally like Be'lakor better
छ
+kiri kili I would recommend Mors Principium Est. Amazing!
I'd love to find an instrumental of this - no luck on UA-cam :(
This would be incredible.
The days when Insomnium wrote great songs
Lame ones don't know what's "great".
yes, "Through The Shadows" is great, I love it
Which they still do.
And when did they stopped doing that?
That's the ultimate slaying song...
Above the Weeping World and Across the Dark are my favourite Insomnium albums, and what I recommend most.
Any time i experience too much bullshit in the world this band/song really help to bring me back to a good place
As I lay Dying + Amon Amarth = Insomnium
Truck men aka Sentenced.
Original melo metal heads.
Im so glad i stopped listening to metalcore and started listening to this type of music now. This is much better lol \m/
Guys, you are the best! Ever! Waiting 4 u in moscow again!
This is still by far one of my all time favorite metal albums. ❤
Great song! \m/ absolutely LIKE!
This song, a pair of backcountry skis, a loaded shotgun, a faithful hunting dog, and the endless boreal forest all fits so perfectly
Amazing
lml
the lyrics for this song just make it that much better
I wonder how hard it is for them to mimic playing and singing during the video... And even so, they are amazing at it...
What a way to start my morning. Sheesh. Adrenaline rush.
I was here on 2012, m here again 2024!!
awesomenium \m/
One of the greatest lyrics ever written!!
Insomnium saves my world !!!
And I feel tired, empty and hollow, heart-broken inside
And I feel this life has nothing for me anymore
And I feel revived, sacred and honoured, one of the kind
And I feel this life is something I was chosen for
hello person scrolling through the comment section you have a great taste in music have a nice day!!
I did.
GG.
