Winter's Gate is the seventh studio album by Finnish melodic death metal band Insomnium. It was released worldwide on September 23, 2016, via Century Media Records. It is a concept album said to be about "a group of Vikings who set out to find a fabled island west of Ireland, despite the treacherous winter drawing near."[5]
The album consists of a single 40-minute track. For streaming and download services, it was split into seven separate tracks[6][7] despite containing six movements denoted in the lyrics.[8] These movements are noted in the tracklist below. For vinyl, the song was split across sides between parts 3 and 4.[9]
All lyrics are written by Niilo Sevänen; all music is composed by Ville Friman, Markus Vanhala & Sevänen.
