It's a captivatingly representative way to start in every respect, as well as one of Insomnium's best songs to date. Plus, the instrumentation is ripe with in-your-face ruthlessness, lively rhythmic change-ups, intersecting guitar lines, and even some bookended acoustic respites for poignant conceptual continuity.
Verses such as "Hour of bloodshed, hour of lies / The hour of murders and vile crimes / No redemption and no pity / No forgiveness of the White Christ” are deeply visceral and compelling. That emphasis on rougher edge and macabre storytelling are apparent straight away, as the introductory title track prioritizes hyperactive percussion, crushing guitar riffs, downright demonic singing, and lycanthropic narration.
