Candlelight Records today confirms October 17 as the American release date for Above the Weeping World, the new album from Finland's Insominium. Now available for viewing, the label has uploaded the band's new video for album track "Mortal Share;" bring your browser to www.myspace.com/candlelightrecordsusa (look under video section) or www.youtube.com.
Recording at renowned Fantom and Finnvox Studios, Above the Weeping World contains Insomnium's skilled melodic death metal, stunningly heavier with even further dynamic and melodic variety than that of their previous efforts. "This is by far the best Insomnium album", says vocalist/bassist Niilo Sevaenen. "It is the first time we feel we really succeeded in studio.
We have nine great tracks on the album. As a band we are very happy with the end result."
For the past three years, Finland's Insomnium have quietly founded a strong sales history and supportive fanbase. Their two recordings, In the Halls of Awaiting and Since the Day All Came Down, represent mere glimpses into the potential of this still very young band. Formed in 1997, the band recorded two demos before signing with England's Candlelight Records (home to Opeth's original trilogy of records). Metal Hammer says, "Insomnium are captivating from start to finish." Kerrang add, "Insomnium have grown into something truly remarkable."
Confirmed track listing for Above the Weeping World is: The Gale, Mortal Share, Drawn to Black, Change of Heart, At the Gates of Sleep, The Killjoy, Last Statement, Devoid of Caring, In the Groves of Death.
