INSOMNIUM - Unsung , lyrics: Beneath a silent stone In cold caress of the earth Where timeless sleep reigns Where world is but a distant toll No stars shine, no moon roams No sun broods, no winds blow No tunes chime amidst the bones No prayers for the devil’s own Night falls and dawn breaks again Autumns and winters slowly pass And all these earthly tremors But a remembrance for me Mine is this forgotten song Buried deep and heard no more Mine is this unhallowed sleep Deathless wait under the trees All the years in vain I fought All my deeds have gone to nought Unsung is the tale of mine Mislaid till the end of time Hidden deep under the vale of moon Entombed beneath the white flowers of death Only the frail words Written in the stone Retell my name anymore Only the frail words Written in the stone Recall my days anymore Thanks Insomnium , Line-up: Markus Hirvonen, Drums Ville Friman Guitars, Vocals (clean) Niilo Sevänen Bass, Vocals Ville Vänni, Guitars
Insomnium will only get better. That is fact. Their lyrics are simply amazing,the beauty of which will never be able to fit in 500 characters. They are never afraid to try new stuff,hence the clean vocals,something i never thought Insomnium will ever use. And there they are,fitting them perfectly with the rest of the song. Their instrumental work is flawless as always,creating that beautiful atmosphere we have all come to love. Dare i say,Insomnium is underrated.
I wont make cliched comments about the dislike button..I will however say that Insomnium is synonymous with perfection..They have never constructed any one song of poor quality. Everything they make conveys their being, which illuminates the world with their musical excellence.. So I say thank you to Insomnium for creating material that not only reflects some of what I feel, but for getting me through some of these days..
This album will be mine. Insomnium, one of the very first MDM bands I listened to and I still listen to this very day. These guys, no matter if they use 100% clean vocals, will never cease to amaze me.
Insomnium does what very little other bands can do. They can be heavy and melodic and have real emotion in their play. People who view metal as just screaming have obviously not heard the masterpieces by Insomnium. For some reason this song almost makes me cry, it is just so beautiful.
This is probably that one band that I'll NEVER grow bored of. Every time a new album is released by them, I'm blown away like the first time I heard their music.
I have to say, there are not many many bands which are able to calm me down this much when I'm in bad mood. but insomnium does, always! Thank you for that!
I've listened to ALOT of music in my days... Started with pop then techno, hip-hop and so on but then stopped at metal... And here shall i forever stay with Insomnium as my number one favorite.. I mean holy shit they are good. Their songs are just simply... Amezing..
If your a fan of insomnium you better buy this album, we need to get them more known and appreciated and the band deserve it been so constant and releasing amazing material, cannot wait for october now. \m/
No seriously this song is astonishing, the melody and clean vox are so great, love the gut vox too .. guitars are awesome .. i mean Insomnium rocks my world right now! :D
I don´t know why but this band always fill me with nostalgic feelings and makes me feel peace too, I love all their albums all of them are good!!!! Greetings From Panama, I want to buy this album!!!! Also the artwork is awesome!!!
alot of people say they dont like the vocals but there unique and i love it the vocals could play in any band and i could pick him out its hard to do that in bands
As they always have been from the beginning, Insomnium is at the top of their game and will stand with the other legendary Melodeath bands like Dark Tranquility, Nightrage, and Amon Amarth. Insomnium has never disappointed us.
Yeah, I hear ya; I saw it at the music store in the mall and just swept it up and went straight to the register (complete no-brainer on if I should buy it).
I fcuking agree. You either love Insomnium or you've never heard of them! You cannot dislike this band let alone hate it. Insomnium is incredible to the power of infinity. Enough said.
Man, I am really in love with the chorus guitar work. To me, it sounds like an autumn day, just kinda taking everything in a rush. dunno if that makes sense to anyone :P

Omg im overwelmed, its so good, insomnium will always be the best band I will ever now :) They have a really special tone. cant wait for the new album!
At least this one band has all listeners that completely agree that this band is awesome! No fighting! Great to see! Just fighting over 'How awesome' Insomnium really is! \m/
My brother and I have been fighting over which new song (the two pre-released songs) is better. I seriously find this one superior just because of the lyrics. Insomnium has made me tear up at lyrics but this one takes the cake. It's so damn sad.
This is a perfect track. All the instruments are masterized, the composition is perfect, the sound is crystal clear and the result is awesome. Bravo, juste bravo :)
i got most of their stuff from dl,but it only made me feel guilty,that's why i'm gonna go ahead and buy three albums (Above The Weeping World,Across The Dark, and One For Sorrow). I just have to support a band like this. If they crumble and fall apart i could never forgive myself
To support the music you enjoy is to invest in them by buying their music. I only download music for free if I cannot find anywhere to buy a physical copy or songs on Amazon Music or Bandcamp. Support All Artists you Love
It's 2:12 am and I wanted to go to sleep. Right now, after hearing that song, I will not fall asleep that night and another, and another, because of it's greatness. I will hear it's echo everywhere and every time. Fuck, they chose the name of the band wisely.
Insomnium are so good they actually make it harder for me to like other similar metal bands. It's like when I found Meshuggah 20 years ago. On the rythmic side there's just no touching them. These guys are the melodic side. And as a fan of epic movie music, this just falls right into my ballpark. Only album I've had trouble with is Heart like a Grave. Can't really get into it. But I'll spin it from time to time and see if I'm just crazy.
'Unsung' is what I as fan was waiting for from fucking Insomnium; an epic track among epic tracks. We all know what references they draw on, and are inspired by. Haters will hate regardless. This, I wager, would leave Terje Bakken proud.
When you think Insomnium can’t make anything more beautiful than this, a little song called ‘Heart Like a Grave’ pops up and says “Hello, have you met me yet?”
I'm from argentina and since several years i follow insomnium, man i would kill to see them live, life is just unfair, they dont deserve be so overrated and "unkown" !!
This is incredible. Once One for Sorrow is released, I think the genre of MDM should be officially closed. Nobody will ever be able to top it. Except for maybe Insomnium...
I never comment on videos but i have to do it this time :) , I'd like to say that the community on the comment section below every insomnium video is so normal... no fights about JB or any other band , just normal comments that i enjoy reading and agree with ... ty for reading and keep it up metal brothers :) !
Cool riffs great melodies and great guitar works and drumming. Really like the growls. Yeah I have to see them when the come to the USA this fall with Epica. To not see this band is a shame. Why I never checked them out before I will never know. But they have that true Melodic death metal feel that DT and old In Flames made. So I don't know what there is to not like.
