WATCH INTERVIEW HERE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKaHWV6Qx4c
Metal M Productions conducted an interview with Niilo Sevänen (vocals, bass) of Finnish melodic death metallers INSOMNIUM during the band’s recent U.K. tour with Children Of Bodom. You can now watch the chat below.
INSOMNIUM recently released the first song, “Ephemeral”, off its forthcoming album, to be released in 2014 via Century Media Records. The first track to feature new guitarist Markus Vanhala (also in Omnium Gatherum), who replaced Ville Vänni in 2011, “Ephemeral” was made available digitally in Europe on September 23 and was accompanied by three bonus tracks — acoustic songs that can be heard in the background of the recently released INSOMNIUM documentary.
Comments the band: “After the success of our last single, ‘Weather The Storm’, we decided that it would be a good idea to record some new material this summer before releasing the actual new full-length album. This was also a good opportunity to explore different studios and work with different people. Just to explore our sound a bit more in terms of production.
And here we are finally; happy to introduce you our new single, ‘Ephemeral’.
The drums recorded by Kimmo Perkkiö at SF Sound (Finland). Everything else recorded by Teemu Aalto at Korkeakoski Studios, Kotka (Finland). The song was mixed and mastered by André Alvinzi and Jens Bogren, respectively, at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden.
It was nice challenge to work on the instrumental side of INSOMNIUM and come up with music that has more cinematic edge to it. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.”
INSOMNIUM’s latest album, “One For Sorrow”, was released in October 2011 in North America via Century Media Records. The CD was recorded in Gothenburg, Sweden with sound engineer Daniel Antonsson (also bassist in Dark Tranquillity and guitarist in Dimension Zero) and at Fantom studios in Tempere, Finland, where the album was also mixed by Samu Oittisen.
INSOMNIUM in 2011 parted ways with guitarist Ville Vänni and replaced him with Markus Vanhala (Omnium Gatherum).
