.: IN SOMNIS :.

Bio : The band's history goes back to 1997, when In Somnis was set as the band's name. While the band has taken influences from
classical piano and organ music and bands such as My Dying Bride, Empyrium, Haggard and many more, it has always been at prime interest to put down
original music. It is with this goal that in 2000 flute melodies were incorporated in the music and that Mab entered the band, while vocalist Moribundus
still continued to play the piano parts. Together with D. Vermeersch (guitars) and Soporifer (drums) the band collected their first live experiences.
From 2002 on, the line-up has been extended with J. Bekaert (guitars), Argiël (piano and keyboards) and S. (bass), which have gradually enabled In Somnis
to increase the complexicity of the band's work to the level it is today and to enhance the quality of the band's live performances.
In Somnis is about dreaming, about leaving the world behind, about escaping into another world. Flute melodies are seducing a man to enter a dream.
Soon, the confrontation with the unconscious is imminent. Slowly bubbling up are tales of forlorn love, Weltshmerz and faith being lost forever. The scars
of his mind bleed again. He dies every night.
In Somnis plays mid-paced doom metal. Intense classic piano parts and whirling flute melodies contrast with a solid base of bass, drums, guitar riffs and
deep grunts. Music for fans of My Dying Bride, Amorphis, Haggard, Empyrium, Therion, Darzamat and Hollenthon.
