Biography
Early years (1989-1991)
Sentenced started in 1989 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.
Shadows of the Past (1991-1993)
In 1991, bassist Taneli Jarva 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. By the year of 1992 had done over 50 live shows and sold all 1500 copies of their debut album Shadows of the Past, their earlier 2 demos and a lot of merchandise.

Noose
by: SentencedNo way out of your misery
Alone in pain and agony
Lay depressed and hollow
One thought in your mind
-No tomorrow
And then you had made up your mind
and thought it was your time
You left this world without shedding a tear
Without hope, without fear
So you tought you'd just put your head into the Noose
'n let it all go...and so you did
Oh yeah, you did
Now you come haunting every night
Calling my name until I...
wake up feeling this sorrow
One thought in my mind
- I will follow
I'll drink the booze to depress myself,
then take the rope and express myself
I'll leave this world without shedding a tear
without hope, without fear
Yeah, I think i'll just put my head into the Noose
and let it all go...and so i will
Oh yeah I will
I'll take the rope, just like you
and wherever you are, I'll be too
I think i'll just put my head into the Noose
and let it all go...and so I will
