Sentenced guitarist Sami Lopakka discusses the two Finnish titles on The Cold White Light in a recent interview

Sentenced guitarist Sami Lopakka discusses the two Finnish titles on The Cold White Light, “‘Konevitsan Kirkonkellot’ means the church bells of Konevitsan. Konevitsan is a historical place in eastern Finland. And this song is actually a traditional Finnish composition. We've just made a really heavy and gloomy version of it, but we still wanted to have the original title there, because
it was kind of logical. The other one, ‘Aika Multaa Muistot’, means something like 'time buries your memories’. When time passes by, you forget about the bad things and remember only the good things. But in this song, we turn it upside-down and it's more that you only remember the bad things that happen to you and you forget about the good ones."
