The Rasmus
« on: July 04, 2006, 01:30:59 AM »
What do you guys think of this band? Their one of my favorites and I'm suprised their isn't a topic about them already. They just recently signed a deal with DRT Entertainment (a label in New York) and their latest album "Hide From The Sun" is finally going to be released in the states September 12 with extras. They didn't do so well here with their last cd so I'm hoping they fair a bit better this time. Also hoping for a US tour.

I used to be infatuated with their video In The Shadows (not the movie, the feather version). As I recall, it was no.1 on charts for some time. After that, I borrowed 2 of thier CDs from a friend, saw 2-3 more of their videos on telly, but got really interested only in Bittersweet (guess why? ;)). I'd probably like them more if they had more hits.

My absolute favourite band in the world right now! I got to hear HIM and Negative through them too for which I'm ever grateful! I'm glad they've been signed up at last in the US - I hope things go really well for them there. 

Unfortunately things haven't been going so well in the UK for them, but I'm hoping they will come back to tour again!  I've seen them 3 times and they get better each time I see them :D

They added alot of bonus tracks more than their first american release.

P.S. Dahaka ... What the hell do you mean this band is too commercial?
Have you forgotten what Bands Forum you are visiting?
These guys released Perfume, Panties, Rings, Shitty Shirts, Lip Balm, Bed Covers, and a Ring Coaster.
Now tell me who is more of a sell out?

Rasmus are just a cheap knock off of any other band trying to get an image for themselfs.

I think dahaka was saying "commercial" based upon their pop-rock sound

I enjoy them. I just wish I hadn't missed their tour this past fall

Oh and for those of you who aren't too keen with the Rasmus, they have the same management as HIM with both Seppo and Tom Furey

I hope they become more "commercial" in the states. FUSE is pissing me off by not playing the video.

I used to be a huge fan but to be honest I've gone off them a bit. Lauri's voice can get a bit annoying. When Bittersweet first came out I thought it was awesome. My 3 favourate bands together! But now when Lauri first comes in it grates a bit.

Despite all that though I like listeing to them now and again as a bit of a guilty pleasure. They are a bit naff though.

Not a big fan of the "Peep" version of Life 705, but I like the re-recorded version found on Hell of a Collection.
