According to Iltalehti, former Sentenced lead guitarist Miika Tenkula was found dead at his home in Muhos yesterday.
As a founding member of Sentenced, Tenkula was instrumental in creating one of the greatest heavy metal albums in Finnish history, Amok.
Tenkula had an acknowledged alcohol problem for many years, which only got worse after he left Sentenced, according to blabbermouth.net. His cause of death has yet to be released, but alcohol-related causes seem likely.
This is a strange coincidence. I was just challenged to do a Facebook meme on albums that have had an impact on your life, and Amok is one of them. So Miika had an impact on my life as well.
Rest in peace.
