INSOMNIUM Frontman NIILO SEVÄNEN - "Five Albums That Influenced Me The Most..." (Video)

Speaking with Finland's Chaoszine, Insomnium vocalist / bassist Niilo Sevänen revealed the five albums that influenced him the most as a musician.

Insomnium recently checked in with the following update:

Insomnium are teaming up with their friends from high-speed melodic death virtuosi Omnium Gatherum, for 25 nights of gloom and sinister anthems in North America.

Both bands have been two prime examples of exceptional melodeath originating from Europe’s freezing North and have gained a massive following over the years through their captivating sound that combines blistering guitar riffs, thunderous drumming, and guttural vocals. For years, the American and Canadian fans have been waiting for the combo of “Insomnium Gatherum” to hit the road together again after the pandemic-related cancellation in 2020 and now, with no more virus in sight, it will finally happen in April and May 2024.

Wilderun, hailing from Boston, will join as support with their unique mélange of prog and folk metal.
