Stam1na (pronounced Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a Finnish metal band native of Lemi, South Karelia. Their music is arguably best described as thrash metal with some progressive metal, death, alternative and punk influences, and is sung in the Finnish language. The band mainly uses seven-string guitars on all albums except the first one where they used six-strings, and a few songs were composed for eight-string guitar on the eighth album Taival.
Name
The band chose to use a "1" in their name to represent the "I" in the word "stamina" to make them more distinct, primarily making the band easier to find in search engines.[1]
Background
The band originally started as a three-piece in 1996, but it was only after several demo recordings that they got signed late in 2004 by Sakara Records, a label founded and headed by the fellow South Karelian band Mokoma.
The founding trio are Antti Hyyrynen on vocals and guitar, Pekka Olkkonen on lead guitar and Teppo Velin on drums. Bassist Kai-Pekka Kangasmäki was added to the lineup in 2005, and keyboardist Emil Lähteenmäki joined in 2009.
Stam1na's self-titled debut album, released in March 2005, reached No. 13 on the Finnish album charts. Their second album, Uudet kymmenen käskyä, was released on 10 May 2006 and did even better on the charts, reaching No. 3 on its first week.
Claiming critical acclaim by heavy touring and winning several awards in Finland, and making their debut in Germany by touring with Apocalyptica in the autumn of 2007, they proceeded to release their third album Raja in February 2008, which went straight to No. 1 on the Finnish album chart in the first week. 10 February 2010, Stam1na released their fourth album titled Viimeinen Atlantis, which translates as "The Last Atlantis", which also went straight to first place on the Finnish album chart, topping among others HIM's new release, and was certified gold by ÄKT in its first week of sales.
In 2012 Stam1na released their fifth album entitled Nocebo, produced by Joe Barresi. Nocebo topped the Finnish album chart and was certified gold on the day of its release. Their sixth album, SLK, was released in February 2014. Stam1na made a historical series of performances in summer 2015 by playing the Provinssirock festival on four consecutive days, playing a different album from their discography in its entirety on each day.
Their seventh studio album Elokuutio was released on 16 March 2016. Since then, they have been gradually touring outside of Finland, appearing on the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise in 2017 and as part of the "Arctic Circle Alliance" with Skálmöld and Omnium Gatherum (2017-2018).
Stam1na released their eighth studio album Taival in 2018.
