Leskentuska

Leskentuska is a Finnish metal band formed in 2018 that has so far released two self-produced demos (DistroKid, Bandcamp) and played a couple of dozen shows, mainly in Northern Finland.

The band's music combines black metal, punk rock and strong choruses inspired by the long tradition of Finnish melodic metal. In their live performances, the band focuses on energy, potent song material and a sense of danger typical of live music, without needless technical gimmicks. The four-piece band's authenticity and tight ensemble playing have been praised by their audiences.

Leskentuska draws on stories from the darkest pages of Finnish history, crime, madness and misery. Uniquely, much of the band's music is based on scientific research to be published in the near future. In the future, the band plans to use its knowledge of history and audiovisual skills to produce music videos and other accompanying material for the enjoyment of listeners.
