Insomnium is a melodic death metal band from Joensuu, Finland. Formed in 1997, their music is characterized by its dark and sorrowful themes, drawing inspiration from poetry by Edgar Allan Poe, Holderlin, and Eino Leino. Their sound combines elements of extreme metal with influences from doom metal.
With their unique blend of melodic death metal and doom metal, Insomnium has established themselves as one of the leading bands in the genre. Their music captures the essence of darkness, loss, pain, and nature through powerful lyrics and haunting melodies.
Hailing from Joensuu in Finland, Insomnium has been captivating audiences since their formation over two decades ago. With their atmospheric soundscapes and poetic storytelling, they have become known for creating an immersive experience that resonates deeply with fans worldwide.

After reaching pole position on official Finnish album charts and hitting German top 10 with the acclaimed album Heart Like a Grave in October 2019, Insomnium were once again supposed to entertain the legions of metal addicts all around the world. And that's what these gentlemen did for the time being until mid-March 2020 when the good old world abruptly closed its curtains. Forced to use the unwanted new time creatively and meaningfully, the Finns have retreated to the studio to record the Argent Moon EP: Simply a masterpiece of Northern melancholia.

Frontman Niilo Sevänen on the EP: "We wanted to see what kind of new music might grow in the darkness and misery of the quarantine. And soon these vibes were channeled into songs that came to be the 'Argent Moon' EP. We wanted to try something a bit different so all the four songs on this release represent the softer side of Insomnium. The ballads and the mellow tunes. Acoustic guitars and clean vocals. The sorrow and agony that creeps into your heart when the nights grow longer. But fear not, we haven't changed our style. Next album will be something different again. We used all the ballad ideas here so maybe it will be pure blast beats. We shall see. 'The Antagonist' video is something new and fresh too, since we worked with director and mastermind Ville Lipiäinen for the first time ever. The result is a bit different kind of Insomnium montage."
