Insomnium is back with yet another new single, this time in the form of the clean vocal-heavy stylings of "The Reticent". The song is the second single Insomnium has dropped in 2021, the first being "The Conjurer", though no album has yet been announced.
"The past year has been a difficult one," said guitarist and vocalist Ville Friman. "People have lost their loved ones, jobs and livelihoods. Hope has been replaced by fear, anxiety and uncertainty. We have all been forced to live our lives in isolation, detached both physically and mentally. This song is about all those feelings. An inner dialogue of hope and hopelessness. During this time, music has been a source of comfort and solace. Something to rely on and return to. And while we have become withdrawn and reticent, our music tolls now ever stronger."
"The Reticent" is available here.
