Epic Riff Please.

After just recently being introduced to Insomnium, I now regard them as being one of, if not the best melo death metal group ever.

There are a few similarities to Opeth (a few of the acoustic break downs sound very similar to Opeth's work) yet the songs seem more "complete".

Insomnium - Disengagement

Youtube compression naturally wrecks the sound. Go and grab a copy of "Since The Day It All Came Down" for the full effect.

Ew. Insomnium. I don't know i heard there older stuff from back in 2000 and 2002 so I'm kinda interested to see if they had gotten better. But i don't really like the whole way they incorporate elements of northern folk music and symphonic music together, It sounds weird to me. But After checking out Since the Day it All Came Down and Above the Weeping World, There much better than the old days of there '99 Demo and the Underneath the Moonlit Waves demo.

Managed to find a copy of "For The Empire" by Constantinopolis. I'll get back to you once I've given it a few listens. As for Sabhankra, haven't had any luck so far. I'll have a look when I have some spare time. Thanks for the recommendations.

Edit: Listened to the first couple of songs and found it to be rather repetitive and somewhat boring. Not too keen on the vocals either.

Better as in better production, more varied song style.....? Either way I'd be interested.

I actually kinda sorta hate this band, mostly because I can't stand the vocalist, but I heard this song a little while ago and I've gotta say.. the intro riff (up until around the 1:02 mark) is pretty awesome. It's not especially difficult to play, but that's not really the point.

This is probably going to be a thread I'll frequent. I have way too much music to sort through and share.
