Apulanta

Apulanta are a chart-topping Finnish rock band whose style has evolved since they began as a group of teenage friends in the early '90s. Their output drew from punk and alternative rock, and starting in 1996, they hit number one on the Finnish charts practically every single year with either a hit single, album, or both. They experimented with sound and presentation as they soldiered on, exploring nu metal on albums like 2005's Kiila and continuing down that road. Elements of melodic punk and electronic music had found their way into the mix by the time of 2022's Sielun kaltainen tuote, the band's 14th studio album.Founded in 1991 and based in Heinola, Finland, Apulanta was originally formed by childhood friends Toni Wirtanen (vocals, guitar), Simo Santapukki (drums), and Sami Lehtinen (bass). The band made its recording debut in 1993 with Mikä Ihmeen Apulanta? (1993), a nine-song EP featuring former bandmembers Antti Lautala (vocals, guitar) and Amanda "Mandy" Gaynor (bass, vocals), in addition to founding members Wirtanen and Santapukki. Following a couple more EPs the next year, Apulanta made their full-length album debut in 1995 with Attack of the A.L. People. Late in the year, the band released the Hajonnut EP (1995), whose song "Mitä Kuuluu" was a smash hit, going all the way to number two on the Finnish singles chart. Apulanta would henceforth hit the upper reaches of the Finnish charts with remarkable regularly. Second album Ehjä (1996) was a Top Five hit, while the seven to follow it -- Kolme (1997), Singlet 1993-1997 (1998), Aivan Kuin Kaikki Muutkin (1998), Plastik (2000), Heinola 10 (2001), Syitä Ja Seurauksia -- 30 Parasta (2001), Hiekka (2002) -- were all number ones. Apulanta also topped the singles chart with remarkable regularity, beginning with "Anna Mulle Piiskaa" in 1996. Their greatest hits are compiled on Singlet 1993-1997 (1998) and Singlet 1998-2003 (2003). Sometime between their 2003 effort Viper Spank and 2005's Kiila, the band veered away from their alternative rock and light grunge sound to adopt a harder-edged style. Kiila brought in heavier downtuned guitar riffs and other elements of rap-rock and nu metal, though it also included string arrangements on some tracks. The album was certified gold on the day it was released, and the band again debuted in the top spot on the Finnish charts. For the next several years, the band regularly released new material in this harder style, with records like 2008's Kuutio (kuinka aurinko voitettiin) and 2014's Revenge of the A.L. People appearing regularly. In 2014, Lehtinen left the band and Ville Mäkinen took over on bass. They went on to release more new music, with Kunnes siitä tuli totta arriving in 2015 and Sielun kaltainen tuote following in October of 2022.
