Saattue – Biography (Short)

Saattue - meaning procession in Finnish - started their journey in 2001. The band released their first self-financed EP Kivisydän in 2004 and it's follow up EP release Ikiuneen in 2006. In 2007 Saattue got signed to Spikefarm Records, who has been responsible for producing Saattue’s full-length album releases: Jäähyvästi (January 2008) and Vuoroveri (October 2009).

 In their music Saattue combine their native language Finnish to dark, raw and emotional musical elements. Saattue's roots are deep in doom metal and other extreme metal genres, but they've also gathered influences from dark rock groups, such as the Finnish cult rock act Mana Mana.

Typical trademarks of the Saattue -sound are oppressive heaviness, rawness, atmospheric passages and ear-catching chorus melodies. The band describes their music as saatto metal.
