QuoteThis mysterious act from 'somewhere behind God's back' has until now kept the lowest of low profiles. The few who managed to catch a glimpse of Rambo Rimbaud's live appearances under various monikers in the mid noughties confess in unison that they had been blown away. 'It's hard to put a finger on the music, other than it being out of this world, emotional and very powerful. I actually remember wondering where they have disappeared!' After these humble beginnings, a series of unfortunate events brought about a forced hiatus of almost ten years, but now Rambo Rimbaud is finally working on its debut album, tentatively entitled "Militantly Violent Libertine".

Ville Valo (you could translate his name as Billy Light)
Daniel Lioneye has also revived his old Rock band, but probably the most mysterious act mentioned is the festival?s opener, Rambo Rimbaud.Who, or what, is Rambo Rimbaud? This is what the artist?s website tells us:?In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni.?Google informs us that this is a Latin palindrome meaning: ?We go wandering at night and are consumed by fire.?(...)There are more hints on Rambo Rimbaud?s Facebook-page, which has seen many close-up shots of lamps lately.?The million dollar question:Who?s the artist who drops the occasional phrase in Latin, loves Baudelaire, and has something of a connection to light?? Take your guess.
Ville had been the bass player in a band called Jimsonweed for a short while, before HIM came into existence. Jimsonweed?s charismatic frontman was Suho Superstar. I first got to know Ville Valo, after I had moved to Helsinki (around the time HIM?s first EP was released), and I started working as their guitar tech in 1996.
