Life Sentence was/is a popular Chicago punk/hardcore band from the mid 1980s to the early 90s. They were from Itasca and formed out of the ashes of the Anti-Bodies and 6 Feet Under (not to be confused with the Metal band). They went through a few lineup changes and even some nasty lawsuits between members and the rights to the name.
