HEART LIKE A GRAVE
Hacía mucho tiempo que ya quería traer al blog a esta banda finlandesa, "Insomnium" y al final por un motivo o por otro nunca terminaba por traer su sonido, y hoy, con motivo de su aún reciente salida al mercado del octavo disco de la banda, este mismo mes de octubre he encontrado al fin la ocasión para hacerlo. Estamos ante un grupo con un larga trayectoria ya dentro del death metal, en su vertiente melódica, siendo igualmente un grupo de los que no han dejado de evolucionar en sus obras, viéndose lejos aún donde pueden tener techo. Una de sus señas de identidad es la exquisita producción de su sonido, y también la atmósfera con la que suelen rodear sus obras, teniendo la sensación de formar parte en su escucha de algo muy nórdico, se siente el frío y la melancolía, oscuridad, cierta contundencia en momentos y delicados cambios en otros. "Insomnium" destaca pues por una calidad cada vez más reconocida. Formados en 1997, han editado, como decía más arriba, y hasta la fecha de esta, un total de ocho LP's y dos EP's, y de esta octava obra de estudio "Heart like a grave" quiero dejar la canción que da nombre a la obra, y de la que dejo un enlace a youtube de su clip oficial.
Sound of the waves
Song of the woeful wind
Beauty of yearning
The tune of my heart
For once there was a time
When I sat by your side
And right before our eyes
The world was open wide
[Chorus]
Days of youth
Are long since gone
Never return
To return again
But a long slow desert left any more
The waning years of
Heartache and regret
[Verse 2]
And yet the winds sing
They sing the fairest tune
I hear the waves sigh
They sigh out from pain
And since you set out
To reach for your hopes and dreams
I'll stay here helpless and in sight
For these wounded wings
I never left this barren soil
Where all my wishes slowly fade away
[Chorus]
Days of youth
Are long since gone
Never return
To return again
But a long slow desert left any more
The waning years of
Heartache and regret
[Bridge]
Do you still remember (Do you still remember)
Would you still believe (Would you still believe)
That this blackened soul of mine (Soul of mine)
Was once untarnished?
[Outro]
Years of disappointment
And disillusion
All I see in the mirror now
Is an old man with a heart like a grave
Do you still remember (Do you still remember)
Would you still believe (Would you still believe)
That this blackened soul of mine
Was once untarnished?
Song of the woeful wind
Beauty of yearning
The tune of my heart
For once there was a time
When I sat by your side
And right before our eyes
The world was open wide
[Chorus]
Days of youth
Are long since gone
Never return
To return again
But a long slow desert left any more
The waning years of
Heartache and regret
[Verse 2]
And yet the winds sing
They sing the fairest tune
I hear the waves sigh
They sigh out from pain
And since you set out
To reach for your hopes and dreams
I'll stay here helpless and in sight
For these wounded wings
I never left this barren soil
Where all my wishes slowly fade away
[Chorus]
Days of youth
Are long since gone
Never return
To return again
But a long slow desert left any more
The waning years of
Heartache and regret
[Bridge]
Do you still remember (Do you still remember)
Would you still believe (Would you still believe)
That this blackened soul of mine (Soul of mine)
Was once untarnished?
[Outro]
Years of disappointment
And disillusion
All I see in the mirror now
Is an old man with a heart like a grave
Do you still remember (Do you still remember)
Would you still believe (Would you still believe)
That this blackened soul of mine
Was once untarnished?
