Background information über 'Anno 1696'

Insomnium's latest offering "Anno 1696" is a compelling journey into the realms of melodic death metal with a thematic dive into the year 1696. This album is a testament to their mastery in blending haunting melodies with aggressive riffs. The tracks unfold like chapters of an epic tale, immersing the listener in a world replete with historical and fictional narratives.

With profound lyrical content penned by Niilo Sevänen, and intricate compositions primarily from Markus Vanhala and Ville Friman, the album maintains a balance between melancholy atmospheres and explosive energy. Guest vocals from artists like Sakis Tolis and Johanna Kurkela add layers to its dynamic soundscapes. "Anno 1696" is not just an auditory experience but also a thematic exploration that resonates deeply with fans of the genre.
