Joensuu, Finland-based melodic death metal band Insomnium issued eighth full-length studio album Heart Like A Grave<\/em> on October 4th, 2019 through Century Media Records.<\/p>\n

The band commented: \u201cThe concept of the album is to delve deep into the heart of the Finnish melancholy. We\u2019ve been inspired by some of the bleakest and saddest songs, poems and tales that truly capture the essence of northern gloom. Land where the frost ravages the harvest and creeps inside the souls, summer ends before it even starts, wife leaves, little brother dies in snow on a Christmas morning, and the golden days of youth are forever gone. So there are echoes of Harmaja, Rautavaara, Vainio, Peltoniemen Hintriikka and of course our own petty, miserable lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Heart Like A Grave<\/em> was mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios in \u00d6rebro, Sweden.<\/p>\n
