Another One Dead come from the eastern town of Lappeenranta, Finland, only about 20 kilometers from the Russian border. The band came together in the fall of 1998, and after a few weeks of playing and figuring things out we formed a solid line-up (though it has suffered a minor change). We've all been playing in different bands before, but never has the outcome sounded as convincing as with this combination.

The band's influences are old and new hardcore alike, as well as some metal. Some of the influences are easier to pick up on than others, one that you can't avoid hearing is metal. Tight stomping guitar parts with some innovative technicality are our backbone. We want to play straightforward, blunt and honest music. We always say things the way they are, without holding anything back.

The two Another One Dead tracks on the Building A Legacy compilation got positive feedback and gained us a lot of attention. The hype that started with our rehearsal tape in 1999 has turned into solid recognition.
