SENTENCED乐队-历史

有些乐队被认为是传奇性的，他们得到了应得的荣誉，他们对别人的影响和启发是有目共睹的，他们的经历也不是三言两语能说得清的。Sentenced实际上就是这样一支传奇性的乐队。1989年,Miilka Tenkula，Sami Lopakka和Vesa Ranta组建Sentenced之初，玩的是一种那时还不流行的粗暴风格的欧洲死亡金属乐。1990年他们录制了第一个小样之后，新的主唱兼贝司手Taneli Jarva加入了乐队，他帮助乐队找到了更好的音乐创作方式和风格走向。在十年的歌词创作中，Sentenced总试图将听者带入一个失落，自杀的消沉和通体否定的世界，这是一种语言无法描述的感觉，只有随着Sentenced的音乐才能感受到。虽然他们的风格越来越软化下去，但他们高素质的音乐，是谁也不能否定的。Sentenced在其音乐与歌词中体现出的才能使他们远远区别于金属运动中诸多平庸之辈，他们是真正意义上的前卫死亡！

1993年，芬兰的独立厂牌Spinefarm为他们录制了第二张专辑“North from Here”，专辑的封面可能给人Black Metal的感觉，但这的确是一张Death Metal的专辑，的确也有Black Metal的成分在里面，吉他运用了很多Tremolo Picking的手法，主唱的嗓音也时而有Black Metal的影子。乐队把气氛掌握的很好，而且旋律不俗。值得一提的是，在“North from Here”里，有少量弦乐作为背景出现，但不是很明显。同年的晚些时候Sentenced发行的一张 EP“骑兵”（顾名思义，EP里翻唱了Iron Maiden的这首经典歌曲）。这几张唱片的风格基本都是北欧风格的Death/Black Metal，又硬又重，速度并不很快，实际上，乐队受早期Iron Maiden的影响是很明显的。EP发行之后，德国的著名的死亡金属厂牌Century Media与乐队进行了联系，并与乐队签定了一份世界范围的合同，包括重新发行乐队的前两张专辑。Sentenced加入Century Media后发行了专辑“杀气”，这一次是乐队音乐风格上的重大突破，专辑甚至卖出了35,000张。这张专集里的音乐异常丰富，旋律性很强，女声，弦乐，原音吉他层出不穷，经常出现同时有6，7种乐器合奏的场面（两种节奏吉他，贝司，鼓，主音吉他，主唱...），而且有条不紊，非常协调。很难想象这是一支死亡金属乐队玩出来的音乐，同时期有很多乐队都开始尝试这种PROGRESSIVE DEATH（前卫死亡金属）的风格，象Therion，Samael等等，但似乎这张“Amok”是做得最为彻底，风格变化最突然的专集。可惜并不是所有乐迷都接受这种改变，一些老歌迷对乐队的这种旋律化倾向感到失望，尽管乐队技巧的提高是那么无法抵御的诱惑。后来，乐队主唱Jarva表示退出乐队，Ville Laihiala加入了进来，很快他与众不同的音乐品味给乐队增加了更多戏剧化的音乐成分。新的贝司手Sami Kukkovi加入后，Sentenced开始创作并录制专集“向下”。专辑中的演唱完全用了“清喉”演唱，音乐更加的旋律化，完全屏弃的早期的风格，丰富的音色和效果的运用，证明了他们的音乐才华。从这张专辑开始，乐迷及乐评已经开始接受并欣赏这种Sentenced的风格了，以至于几个知名杂志（如德国的Rock Hard和Metal Hammer），将这张“Down”评为当月最佳专集。这使得乐队名声大噪，并在更大范围的巡演中和诸如The Gathering，My Dying Bride和Therion这样的乐队一起合作，并作为头牌乐队在芬兰进行了巡演。

1998年Sentenced在德国著名的Woodhouse录音室开始了他们最新专集的创作，即由Waldemar Sorychta制作的“冰冻”。这一次乐队尝试了新的吉他和效果器，并大大加强了感情在歌曲中作用，看起来乐队在这张专集中达到了颠峰状态。随着比以往作品更为出色的旋律进行，Sentenced在每首歌中都尽力去抓住那种痛苦和悲哀的情绪，“Frozen”无疑音乐风格上更加多元化了。

Sentenced was a doom/gothic metal band that played melodic death metal in their early years. The band formed in 1989, in the town of Muhos, Finland, and broke up in 2005. Founding member Miika Tenkula's death in 2009 effectively ended any hopes of reforming the band

Biography

Sentenced started in 1988 as Deformity and changed their name to Sentenced in 1989, after a few line-up changes. The original line-up consisted of Miika Tenkula (lead guitar and vocals), Sami Lopakka (guitar), Vesa Ranta (drums), and Lari Kylmänen (bass). They recorded two demo tapes: When Death Joins Us... in 1990 and Rotting Ways to Misery in 1991. The band actually got their very first record deal (With the French label Thrash Records) after their first demo.

In 1991, bassist Taneli Jarva, second cousin of Tenkula, joined the band, replacing Kylmänen just as the band was about to record their debut album, Shadows of the Past. At that time, their musical style was fast, typical European melodic death metal. In Spring 1992, they recorded a three-song promotional tape, Journey to Pohjola, and as a result got a deal with the Finnish Spinefarm Records.

The second album, North from Here, was released in the spring of 1993, and later that year The Trooper EP. Jarva had assumed lead vocal duties using a different style than Tenkula's. It was North From Here that earned the band the attention of German record label Century Media Records, and in 1994 Sentenced left Spinefarm in order to head toward a wider market with a new multi-album contract under Century Media

In 1995, Sentenced released their 'break through' album, Amok, which is considered by many to be their best work. Compared to earlier releases, the music had slowed down somewhat, acquiring a more melodic structure. The track "Nepenthe" was complemented with a music video and the band took to tour Europe in two full-length tours supporting Samael and Tiamat.

In autumn, the band released the Love & Death CD. Music-wise, it kept a fairly similar concept as Amok, as the songs had been written around the same time. Sentenced had achieved success in Doom/death markets, but Jarva left the band because of musical differences. After his departure, Ville Laihiala (of Breed fame) joined the band in 1996, just weeks before the band was due to head to Germany to record their fourth album Down with producer, Waldemar Sorychta. Once again, the music became more melodic with a significant NWOBHM influence. During this time, bassist, Sami Kukkohovi also joined the band, but only as a session member on gigs. Later, in spring 1997 he was granted a permanent slot in the line-up.

Sentenced's fifth full-length album, Frozen, was also recorded at the Woodhouse Studios, and released in 1998, its style is similar to Down. Laihiala and Kukkohovi had become initiated into the band, so they participated in the composition process, resulting in the next album: Frozen. In 1999, a special edition of Frozen was released, containing a re-colored (gold) cover and rearranged track running order, with four cover songs included.

The next Sentenced album to be released was Crimson in 2000. The single "Killing Me, Killing You" demonstrated the band's turn towards melodic death metal. Two years after the release of The Cold White Light, the band was seen in a slightly different light, the lyrics displaying some self-irony and even a rare positive edge.

After The Cold White Light, they released a CD-single. Released in 2003 along with songs by other bands on a four track compilation single that was dedicated to Oulun Kärpät, the ice hockey team of the band's hometown, Routasydän remains the only song Sentenced sung in Finnish, and cannot be found elsewhere. The song caused something of a stir in Finland, as several politicians reviewed the lyrics and purported them to contain Nazi overtones, which the band has steadfastly refuted.[citation needed]

In early 2005, the band announced that their following release, The Funeral Album, would be their last. They performed farewell gigs during the spring and summer and ended with a final show on October 1st 2005 in their hometown Oulu, Finland. The concert film Buried Alive, directed by Mika Ronkainen, filmed at the funeral gig, was premiered at Oulu Music Video Festival September 9th, 2006.

Guitarist and founding member Miika Tenkula passed away on February 19, 2009. Although his cause of death has not yet been revealed, it is claimed that Tenkula had a serious drinking problem for many years.[2] His death effectively ended any hopes of a Sentenced reunion.
