Anyone heard of them? These guys, in my opinion, are very underrated.

Soulfallen comes from the great metal land of Finland! Their first album, World Expiration, was released in 2007. Its very much melodic death metal with a mixture of death and black metal style vocals. They use a lot of keyboards and have a real powerful symphonic sound. Don't let that scare you because these guys are heavy! The result is a really dark sound. Everything here is really balanced.

The second album Grave New World was just released this year. Imo their second album is more epic yet still heavy as hell. The atmosphere and symphonic elements in this band are really top notch. Just listen to the first 2 songs on their myspace. The third song on their myspace is probably their lightest song but very epic and is the only song (I think) with clean vocals...and the clean vocals are actually good unlike Insomnium's Across the Dark (which was a great album overall but the clean vocals were weak).

Fans of Swallow the Sun, Insomnium, Shade Empire, Dark Tranquillity...you will enjoy this.

I should also mention that the guy who does keyboards & orchestrations for both albums is not part of the band. His name is Hannu Honkonen. He's a composer for film, television, video games (well he's working on one unnamed Playstation 3 game) and other media.

He's also does the orchestrations for Swallow the Sun (since Hope) and Insomnium (only on Across the Dark).

I guess that's why Im liking Soulfallen so much...although even without any keyboards and orchestrations, the guitar work is really solid in every way. Hell...the whole band just kicks ass haha.
