The Finlanders massive success story continues
When a group of former schoolmates work for 11 years to secure international success, you can bet it won’t be relinquished easily. Having achieved platinum status in the UK and all across mainland Europe with their fifth album, 2004′s hit-encrusted Dead Letters (featuring the Top Three smash In The Shadows), Finland’s The Rasmus have wisely chosen to offer an identical goth-pop-metal smogasbord. …read more »
It is time to get out of the shadows and stop hidding from the sun, because The Rasmus are back with their 6th and powerfull album, “Hide From The Sun”. What did Lauri learn in Mexico, how was Sweden, and what is it with the butterflies? All the answers are here.

Ah, The Rasmus. How fondly we remember. The first thing that struck our minds when we heard The Rasmus’ was Lauri Ylonen’s husky voice tearing through a sizzling guitar riff a la “In The Shadows”. For at least two months, it was everyone’s favourite rock number and we couldn’t get enough. …read more »
Sometimes one could really become desperate. After working like a mad hatter for months on a new album, throwing all of one’s heart into the compositions and the lyrics, and when one finally presents the finished creation to a broader public in form of some exclusive journalists also with a slightly queasy feeling how the resonance will be, the only thing these media people seem to be interested in is the make of the sun glasses one has still in his hair by chance. …read more »
Nearly ten years ago The Rasmus, once founded as student band in Helsinki, published their debut, and their music sounded as young and relaxed as the Finns were then. The quartet around frontman Lauri Ylönen in those times composed lively songs full of adolescent high spirits and at least in their home country they hit a nerve straight from the beginning. They are still successful, nowadays though even on international level, but only little of the jaunty joviality of the early years remains. …read more »
The last album Dead letters sold 1,5 million copies, but how can you ever do that again? On the new album Hide from the sun the finnish band The rasmus tries to please all the fans with a mixture of something hard and softer stuff.
After 9 years struggeling of the finnish clubs The rasmus got a big break through 2003 with Dead letters and the album sold a lot and they also became the best nordic sellers and the hopes for the new album is therfor very high, but the critics have also become worse. …read more »
Question: Why is it butterflies in the new video and the new album and will you wear butterflies in your hair now instead of feathers Lauri? (from Karolina Gorrachategui Agentina)
Lauri: The butterflies is a symbol of the music. It’s something beutiful, but also very fragile and somehow it’s a symbol of the beauty and the beast and no don’t worry I won’t have any butterlies in the hair.
Pauli: We were in Sweden to record the new album and then me and Lauri begun discuss what to have on the cover and had some different ideas …read more »
Maricica Cornici had been tied up to a cross for days, the 23-year old nun was left vegetating without food or water before death released her from her infinite sufferings. None of the involved monks feels pity or repentance for their cruel deeds afterwards. The young woman had been possessed by the devil, the exorcists justify themselves, there had been no other choice for them but to free Maricica from Satan this way. However, it was not in the dark ages that the sister was tormented but in the year 2005, …read more »
Shy from the witchburners
Bashful, secretive types, Lauri Ylönen and Tarja Turunen seem unlikely rock icons, but as their stars carry on ascending, it’ll be hard to shy from the glare, never mind the witchburners…
“Every time someone comes up with something new there are people who are afraid of them”. Lauri Ylönen.
Anyone would think that Nightwish’s vocalist Tarja Turunen and The Rasmus’ frontman Lauri Ylönen had known each other for years. …read more »
After The Rasmus released Dead Letters last year many of us (including this writer) dismissed them as a flash in the pan pop act on the wrong side of the musical tracks. Having amassed a huge following regardless, the question now isn’t whether we should embrace The Rasmus but whether they’ve got anything more to offer. Opening track Shot shows they’ve done little to stray from their trademark infectious pop sound, but there’s an added edge that places the Finns at the more dynamic end of the commercial scale. …read more »
