2010, The seed of The Man-Eating Tree was planted when Vesa Ranta began to overcome his post-Sentenced lack of inspiration to play music. The idea of a new band was brainstormed over a period of time between Vesa and his friends, including gentlemen Miika Tenkula, Janne Markus (Poisonblack, guitars) and Mikko Uusimaa. It is the perfect time of the year when leaves turn golden, bronze and red, when the days turn shorter and you just feel like curling up in front of a cozy fireplace while the shadows of the winter start to crawl up at night. It is the perfect time of the year for The Man-Eating Trees atmospheric metal.
