Ville Petteri Laihiala (born June 13, 1973 in Oulu, Finland) is the current vocalist and guitarist of the Finnish gothic metal group Poisonblack. He was also the frontman for Sentenced from 1996 (when he replaced their former bassist and vocalist, Taneli Jarva) until the group ended their career in 2005. When joining Sentenced he was soon accepted by fans. He wrote very few songs for Sentenced (whose main-songwriters were Miika Tenkula and Sami Lopakka), but one example of a song he wrote is "Aika Multaa Muistot" on the album, "The Cold White Light".

[edit] Style
In the beginning of his career with Sentenced, his vocals had been sharp and rocky, but as their music became more melodic and evolved into gothic metal, he sang in a very low and melancholic manner.
