Two new articels with lauri Ylönen

 

Thanks to Oana and Reka, we can enjoy two new articles to read

from are favorite singer Lauri Ylönen.

 

Article 1:

 

Lauri Ylönen promises to behave this time at Linna Celebrations

 

The Rasmus Lauri Ylönen made a picture of himself with his phone’s camera for Aamulehti.
The Rasmus celebrates their 15th anniversary with releasing a collection album and with a gig in the sports hall of the Suutarila High School.
Where can we find the most fanatic The Rasmus fans?
-Maybe in Britain. There are a couple of girl fans who have been at 62 gigs. They are a bit older, oh well aged around 30 who wanted also to come to the celebration gig.
What is the strangest thing ever you have done during your career?
-In Taiwan i was live on the TV drinking some snake poison drink.
During the summer you’ve been touring with Alice Cooper, Scorpions and Kingdom Come in Russia. What kind of experience it was?
-It was great to be around our childhood heroes. Everyone was nice and really open. The 30-years of age difference wasn’t disturbing at all. Sometimes it was weird to see the same aged guys put the same make-up on their face…it was both sad and cool in the same time.
Who is taking care of your son if the mother PMMP’s Paula vesala and you are at a gig too?
-There haven’t been too much of those situation recently, because most of us band members have young children and been at kind of a paternity leave.
So you will be going to the Linna Celebrations?
-While i have been on my Asian trip i have got some couple of dresses that would do fine for the Linna Celebrations. This time i will go to the party with a partner. Last time i took a friend with me, Siiri Nordin. I thought you don’t have to bring at the party your lady. But apparently i have been forgiven. And i promise that this time i will behave.
The Rasmus will have their 15-year anniversary concert on the 23.11 in the Gym Hall of the Suutarila High School. Their Best of 2001-2009 compilation album appears on the 23.11.
Read more questions and Lauri Ylönen’s answers in Wednesday’s Aamulehti.

 

Article 2:

Lauri: I quit drinking

 

The Rasmus’ leadsinger reads stories for his son through Skype
Last year The Rasmus members spent their first summer in fifteen years without gigs. Lauri Ylönen could even get to enjoy his time with his one and half year old Julius son and at his girlfriend’s PMMP’s Paula Vesala’s gigs.
- When Paula is doing gigs i often take care of him.I can’t think of any reason why i wouldn’t be with my son in park making sand cake, Ylönen says enjoying the parenthood.
Fatherhood is in combination with touring, although being away from family for year long is not the most attractive thing. The Rasmus have been touring in Europe at the beginning of the year for several months.
-At those points i’ve been using the technology: i read fairy tales to my son through Skype. It might sound cold. I’m confident in the future about a free education, such as mine was.
Ylönen is actively writing new material for their future releases. The singer was recently in Singapore where Pauli Rantasalmi lives to put the pieces together.
-With this journey i got a perspective of how a good place Finland is. In Singapore there is a complete lack of freedom of speech, which is quite a sick thing.
Ylönen would like to also publish new material more often, since modern technology allows you to make good quality songs in in your own bedroom.
-It would be really a cool thing if the songs could be “printed” with a single press of Enter, and so the listeners can hear the first version. When you work on a disk for 3 years, it’s no longer needing to be improvised. I see the market is changing essentially, so publication of an album is not already a major event.
The Rasmus will celebrate their 15th anniversary with a compilation album and with a performance in their junior high school, where the band also had their first gig.
Ylönen sees that the band got more listeners when the song In The Shadows had success in foreign countries too.
- The following years then were some tough times. We had a booming energy, but were worn out after the gigs. I was really so disordered at that time.
- It was kind of a “foggy” time when after the gigs we had to consume a lot of alcohol. Now i quit drinking for six months already, Ylönen says.
The Rasmus was about to split before their world fame came.Today, it would be an impossible thing.
-I feel that friendship kept us together. This become a great part of the life, without which life would seem really boring. I would be sad to leave for a solo career.
-It would make more sense to say to “retire” for a long time from doing gigs, than to make a lot of people’s eyes full of tears, and then come back after years from now. If it would be for us to break up, we would surely only retire for a long break.
The Rasmus’ Best of 2001-2009 appears Wednesday 25.11. The band will have a gig in Suutarila High School Monday 23.11

Black Roses Community: Thank you for all the question

 

THANK YOU...for all the questions. We received far more than 100 mails and it was a hard decision to pick just a few out of about 250 questions. But we finally made it and we think that the interview is quite interesting and funny.
We try to type it up as fast as possible - maybe you get it on sunday already! But if we don't manage it till then, please don't be mad at us. We talked for more than 30 minutes...which means a lot of words.

The Rasmus surprise gig at school! (rytmi.com)

 

The Rasmus is celebrating its 15-year career anniversary concerts, which will be held Suutarila secondary school gymnastics hall on Monday 23 November. Rasmus-history's first show was consulted in 1994 in that same school's Christmas party.

.."I invented it. Now comes the 15 years we ekasta gig there, gymnastics room sweat sock smell ", says Lauri Ylönen rhythm.

"I think it is a good idea to go back there and play the gig to go to this moment for students and invited guests. It would also be nice to ask the site types that were then in the first keikallakin participate," Lauri continues.

During all the school - especially guys - just did not think kindly of how the band was popular with girls. Yet, it was important to their place of evidence...

.."It was a sense the first time that each of us a more assertive half got up. It was perhaps surprising to many people who knew me just read in the presentation with excitement. "

"It admits that we were not their own songs in our Kummelin He-man song-shade. It pulled for some reason, a lot better than our own Myself song. We also played Nirvana's Polly gig ... it was the kind of alphabet soup, " Ylönen laughs and wonders out loud, wondering if Kummeli-song could pull this time.

"Yes, that is Diamond, but should probably ask what the other band of this idea say. Overall, the gymnastics hall returning to the same positive feeling. We do not go there with the explosives, but just the same style as the case sometimes. "

Ii>I began looking online and thought of what we could do. In the end it became clear that it should be online. I was excited for this and though someone my age would be curious to know what the teachers may think. (very rough translation here)....

Gig live on the Internet is seen as

Lauri, I regret that the first ever gig clothes have been somewhere along the way in 15 years. In a way, they would have been funny BUSK.

.."Hard to remember what was just then on, but the grunge phase was temmannut us all with him. Was also a colorful hair and a shirt box. Annoying when I have thrown the legendary shirts off sometimes. Now it is time to put on the end of mageeta consumed in the shirt box, ".. Lauri carved eagerly waiting for the future.

On-site access to celebrate the school's current students Suutarila, The Rasmus members of the former school friends as well as IRC-Galleria in November the winners. Others can share the gig atmosphere of IRC-Galleria The Rasmus-themed communities in which gig is visible in real time. Stuff with other fans can chat.

The Rasmus singer, Lauri Ylönen interview by Rytmi

 

Next steps:

 

“We don’t have a certain timetable for our plans, it’s going under own weights. In a way it’s fascinating that the last record was a maxima scale and brought to the American big world and a lot of money. Now, if we would make the disc it would be a bit the other end.” says Lauri Ylönen.
“Maybe the album had some high expectations, as it would have cost a million, and then it should have been sold in a certain extent too” he continued.

Making their previous album was still a lesson to learn.

 

“The previous album had a good record and the time we had on it was necessary to do so. With Desmond working, one can learn a lot but i can not say that we took the most out of it.” Ylönen sums up.

 

Lauri and Pauli Rantasalmi are both working in a parallel way: Lauri in Finland and Pauli in Singapore, making demos during the summer.

 

“We’ve been all on our own and working on new stuff. I’m going to Singapore to Pauli and certainly make some sound-recordings during the autumn.” Lauri points out.

The more spice it gives to the situation that The Rasmus is not currently signed with any recording company.

“In a way i can think even that way that now we start from the beginning. The Playground contract expired and we don’t know anything about the future. It might happen that we’ll continue being signed there, or just somewhere else.”

“This is a nice feeling, that seemingly a particular task is completed and we can now again start doing things from a scratch.

The things have changed even with the big record companies and now even the smallest can succeed.

Indeed we also have a company, so nothing is excluded. Should take a look at it.” Lauri thinks peacefully.

Says Lauri: "We felt it was time to sum up these past ten years. Eero said, let's call the album "This is how I spent my twenties"... No matter how stupid it sounded that is pretty much the truth. We went on this crazy rollercoaster ride, it has been an amazing time. We have travelled to more than 60 countries, from ..India.. to ..Siberia.., met thousands of fans all over the world and enthusiastic people working with our records. And when I look back on these last four records I feel very proud of them. We decided to include most of the singles to the album with a couple of our favorite album tracks, and the new song October & April.”

Lauri and aki had a interview at voice: This is The Rasmus future

 

The Rasmus Lauri singer and drummer Aki told that in future, they are not necessarily intended to be used at all outside the studios.

 

The band is preparing for the November release of the disc collection taking place, but over the years has already had time to recording new songs with owned Dynasty Studios in Helsinki.

Lauri says that the band's future, it seems that the next record might be based on these studio recordings, because they have been forced to sad the fact that the demo versions of the energy is lost through studio working.

 

Now the band has a good recording equipment so that they can record training by versions of the songs, which may form the band's next album.

 

Lauri showing also the possibility to opt out of all the albums release, the continuous fall in sales volumes. He wonders whether the publication of The Rasmus always one song at a time, as individual albums songs work better internet world.

See Lauri and Aki's thoughts below.
