This album is awesome. I was already impressed by Deinonychus' 2002 album Mournument, but Insomnia is far stronger and more coherent. Although shorter in length than Mournument, the album feels whole; each track is a fully realized piece of music. Additionally, the music on Insomnia is more diverse than that of Mournument. While keeping with Deinonychus' sprawling, monolithic style of Doom, Insomnia has an epic, emotional feeling to it, reminiscent of bands like Weakling or Wolves in the Throne Room. The guitars are crushing, the keyboard subtle and chilling, and the sludge is broken by occasional death/black metal parts that add to the atmosphere rather than distract the listener. No guitar solos, no frills. The vocals, as on Mournument, are in perfect complement with the music- guttural roars, painful wails, and mournful sung passages. When the music drops out, and Kehren is left screaming into silence, you realize this is Doom at its best. One of my favorites.
