Segmentia is a pop metal band from Seinäjoki, founded in 2019. The band consists of vocalist Kansana, guitarist Manu Lenkkeri, bassist Stefan Laine, and drummer Jere Luokkamäki.

Segmentia weaves catchy melodies and orchestrations into their music, building on the foundations of metal and pop-electronic influences. Their songs tell stories drawn from the real lives and thoughts of individuals. Inspired by the forces of nature, the enigmatic and melancholic North, and unexplored dimensions of the world, their music embodies a sense of mystery, wonder, and awareness. The band firmly believes that music carries magic from beyond this world. Proudly describing their unique fusion of pop and metal with the phrase "POP METAL FROM THE NORTH," Segmentia invites listeners to embark on an exploration, unveiling the mystical curtain of music.

The roots of Segmentia took shape at the end of 2012, arising from the remnants of a cover project. Their first EP, "Shanghai," was released in the autumn of 2019. Before that, the band went through various name iterations, changes in bassists and vocalists, and a search for their own sound, which they ultimately discovered.

The connection and friendship among the band members are of utmost importance. The collective bond between people and their environment shapes the stepping stones of their music. Segmentia aims to convey this feeling through their songs, allowing listeners to become part of this journey and sharing the heavenly flow state that music creates!

Music

According to composer and lyricist Jere Luokkamäki, Segmentia draws influences from Finland and Finnish culture in their music. Their sound primarily encompasses Finnish rock, pop, and metal. Based on their songs, their music could be described as a fusion of seven musical styles or segments (pop, rock, punk, metal, soul, disco, hip-hop), but in essence, it is symphonic, alternative pop rock enriched with electronic sounds.
