"Insomniac" is the second long awaited Chainreactor album, but believe me - it was worth to wait! The album is fast, even brutal. Eats the brain, and leaves in an ecstatic rapture. Every song is a masterpiece, a masterpiece in every second. Minimalism in the lyrics, it is a big advantage on this album.
Fantastic song is "Störgeräusche", a surprisingly exciting, and promises that the rest of the album is also delicious. "Locked in" treats you the feeling of claustrophobia, which does not feel like you have to leave. However, "Pressure & Pain" I can easily compare to the sophisticated masochistic / sadistic pleasure, I do not know any person in which don't resides need of experience or inflict some sort of pain, whether physical or emotional. This track clearly shows that it can be fun. In each of us there is something missing, is a place where nothing is able to fill, which means that although we may not realize it, we wake up in the middle of the night - that makes us aware of the lack of "The Missing Piece".
"Insomniac" - offers even a momentary separation from thinking, because human is too busy attempting to catch breath, the song give a great pleasure.
In "Misantrop" we hear the perfect combination of gentle sounds of snarling - creaking, that are in perfect harmony.
My favorite song on the album is "Control". It is like a strong mixture of alcohol and energizing drink, or the best sex in your life - gives you a kick and dizziness, excites, makes you want more, and more. Another cold pleasure.
In my humble opinion, the weakest track on "Insomniac" is a "Delusion". Not pleased my taste, do not impressed and knocked me on my knees just like the rest of the CD, but on every album has to find a piece that will be weak - fortunately, there is only this one.
CD is 100% "must have" of any fan of the Dark Independent scene, the lack of it in the collection is a worrying sign of ignorance.
