Biography

  • The Rasmus (formed in 1994) is a Finnish melodic alternative rock band, best known for their international breakthrough single “In the Shadows”, hailing from Helsinki, Finland.

    Originally formed of high school friends, vocalist Lauri Ylönen, bassist Eero Heinonen, guitarist Pauli Rantasalmi, and Jarno Lahti, the band’s debut gig was at heir school’s pre-Christmas party in 1994. The year after drummer Jarno left the group and was replaced by Janne Heiskanen and Rasmus released their debut EP “1st” in December. Featuring the singles “Funky Jam”, “Myself”, and “Frog” the release sold over 1,000 copies in the space of a few weeks, and 1,000s more upon its rerelease by their new label Warner Music Finland.

    The Rasmus’ debut album “Peep” was released by Warner Music Finland in 1996 led by the singles “1st”, “2nd”, and “3rd”, which were essentially small EPs. The group subsequently won the EMMA (Finnish Grammy equivalent) for Best Newcomer in 1996. The Rasmus’ sophomore album “Playboys” hit the shelves in August 1997 and has since been certified gold in Finland aided by the singles “Blue”, “Kola”, and “Playboys”. Unlike their debut, the album boasted a host of additional musicians, which resulted in a cross-genre appeal with influences from rapcore and funk.

    In 1998 the band’s third album “Hell of a Tester” arrived marking a change from funk to classic rock. Once again the record went gold, supported by the single “Liquid” which charted within the Top 40 on MTV Nordic and won the Single of the Year and Video of the Year at the Finish Music Video Awards. Following the release Janne Heiskanen left the group to settle in India, and the Rasmus founded their own record label named Dynasty Association. In an attempt to appeal to an audience outside of Finland, The Rasmus signed with Playground Music and released their fourth full-length “Into” in October 2001. The internationally-released album topped the Finnish Album Chart and spawned the popular singles “F-F-F-Falling”, “Chill”, “Madness”, and “Heartbreaker/Days”.

    The Rasmus subsequently released the best-of album “Hell of a Compilation” ahead of their fifth full-length “Dead Letters” in March 2003. “Dead Letters” proved to be the band international breakthrough aided by the radio-friendly “In the Shadows”. Like its predecessor the record adopted a dark, moody, and melancholic tone, however far surpassed its success. The album topped the album charts in Finland, Austria, Switzerland, and Germany, and spawned the subsequent singles “In My Life”, “First Day of My Life”, “Funeral Song”, and “Guilty”. The band went on to win the Best Nordic Act award at the 2003 MTV Europe Music Awards, and Five EMMA awards. The platinum-selling full-length “Hide from the Sun” arrived in 2005, followed by “Black Roses” in 2008, and the self-titled “The Rasmus” in 2012.

Live reviews

  • I've seen The Rasmus once in 2012 and it was great. Unfortunately the insane fangirls where rather annoying, once you wanted to get just a bit closer to the stage they were almost struggeling you. So never get yourself a beer before the show if you want to leave the place in one part. I usually only go to Metal concerts so that was kind of a shock to see how aggressive and unfriendly fans can be.

    Enough of the negative part, The Rasmus are an amazing live act. They give all they have to satisfy their fans, play the old and new singles but also the songs only the hardcore fans now (like "Blue"). Unfortunately Lauri was a bit ill on that day, so his voice wasn't as perfect as usual and he had is problems with some songs, but I forgive him that. I would like to see them again as they are an awesome band, but I really hate those crazy fangirls.

  • The concert was amazing. The support groups were good but went on for a bit too long and I would have liked Rasmus to play for a bit longer. I was very happy with the songs they played and how they played them: some old songs, some new and some plugged in and some acoustic. The performance was also excellent, especially with the Ghostbusters theme tune! The music was even better live than listening to it from the album. The atmosphere with the crowd was incredible because all of people were really happy to be there. All in all, a fantastic experience, would definitely do it again in a heartbeat.

  • It was an amazing concert. They play about 16 songs and all of them were perfect!

    The performance was really good. Lauri gave everything on the stage, Akii played the drums with an awesome energy, Eero interact with the audience singing and giving gifts and Pauli was so immerse in his music. All of it was awesome. It was a magical night. ❤

  • The show was cancelled and Ticketmaster didn’t warn me and let me buy the ticket anyway. It was terrible for me because I’ve travelled from Brazil to Paris to go this show. Anyway, I love the band but the organization was just terrible and we were walking through the park for about an hour before we found out about the cancelling.
