I've heard of them. They got some airplay out here in the U.S. during the fall. They sound like Savage Garden on a rock bender. _________________ "...I feel that Jamiroquai needs to be taken to another stage now. It really does.

they have this one song "in the shaddows" i think,it was a huge hit on the charts all over the world,but they did nothing else,so when they realized that this is the only good song they made a second video for it which is lame!!
and pietro they play some kind of a commercialized rock.. _________________ "on the bass st.st..st..stuuu zender!!" |

Besides, "In The Shadows" has three videos, and one of them is very simmilar to Virtual Insanity's  _________________

I love The Rasmus
They're from Finland and aren't very popular in the UK, in fact they got bottled at a concert last year (Reading I think?)
They had two hits, "In The Shadows" and "Guilty" both pop/rock, although their appearance is very gothic
You'll either love them or hate them  |

Yes, they're a Finnish band, and I'm Finnish so I get to hear about them & their music so much it hurts. In a way, I think, there is nothing wrong with the band or their music, the guys can play well & write good stuff (it's probably just their singer's voice that annoys me so much) but what they play, that is - music I don't really listen to.
Their stuff was really funky a couple of years ago when they weren't so famous.
You can download some of the band's songs from their official website - http://www.therasmus.com if you wanna, but njah, I'd say, there is no need to bother because those songs are their so-called "greatest hits" which are really sucky. |

The Rasmus were a flop here in NZ, In The Shadows got lots of airplay but noone liked it really. _________________ Fascist.
