Description:Few bands bring together sounds of darkness, melody, and musicality like Finlandâ??s INSOMNIUM. With â??Anno 1696â??, the ninth installment in their sonic explorations that include masterworks like â??Shadows of the Dying Sunâ?? (2014) or â??Winterâ??s Gateâ?? (2016), INSOMNIUM continues to weave together bitter branches of sound that set the standard for nightmares to come. From the sweeping soundscapes and spare chords that open the record with the track â??1696â?? to the sonic stormcloud and deathly snarl of â??White Christâ??, the haunting â??Godforsakenâ??, the catchiness of â??Lilianâ?? to the album's epic closer, â??The Rapidsâ??, â??Anno 1696â?? is a soundtrack of intensity and despair that pulls you in and never lets go. A tour de force of Finnish melancholy. â??Anno 1696â?? is available as: Ltd. Deluxe 2CD Artbook (coming with a lush, extended booklet, the short story to the album as well as the â??Songs of the Duskâ??-EP), Gatefold 180g 2LP+CD incl. a 12p LP-Booklet & as a Standard CD Jewelcase. -

Marco M. - 14/Aug/2024 5 of 5 Stars!
First part of the album (White Christ, Godforsaken, Lilian) is immediately a peak of inspiration and dark beauty. Melody and drama well entwined under the eye of emotions. Second part of the platter is a bit below the expectations created at the beginning, but songs like "Starless path" and "The rapids" are there to remember us that this is overall another great album by these finnish mates.
