Sentenced is one of the brightest (actually darkest) Finnish Heavy Metal / Heavy Rock bands of the past decade and their work was always marked by dignity, emotional depth, providing soul purification and catharsis to the listener! Since then many rivers of time have flown into the sea of immortality and the winds of Lord Time brought significant changes to their musical approach and style. The saddest thing from all this is that Sentenced have finally and unfortunately found their way towards their musical grave. After having a couple of Heinekens with Ville Laihiala (Vocals) and Sami Lopakka (Guitar) they revealed to us a lot of magnificent stuff about their past and their new album, The Funeral Album. They proved to be very open minded and open hearted people! Before you enter this interview remember, my friend, what H.P. Lovecraft once wrote: ...Not dead which eternal lies, yet with stranger aeons even death may die!!! Enjoy this interview!
