2. Mortal Share
3. Drawn to Black
4. Change of Heart
5. At the Gates of Sleep
6. The Killjoy
7. Last Statement
8. Devoid of Caring
9. In the Groves of Death


Origin - Finland
Genre - Melodic Death Metal

" This is Insomnium's third release, and like its predecessors, it is another melodic masterpiece. Insomnium relies on traditional Gothenburg melodic death metal riffs, combined with atmospheric symphonic keyboard sounds. The album is about 53 minutes, with 9 songs, so the songs are quite long. The musicians in this band are fantastic. , Niilo Sevänen is both perfect for bass and vocals. His death vocals are harsh, and mid-ranged, and not an annoying scream. Whilst not as low as Mikael Akerfeldt (Opeth), he is much better than a lot of vocalists for melodic death metal bands nowadays. He sometimes chooses to whisper and growl emotionally at times. Ville Vanni and Ville Friman(enter my silence) make for a deadly duo of guitarists "

One of my top ten from 2006 !
