Interview with Lauri and Aki in Hungary
Tölgyi Kriszta made an interview at the Campus festival with the singer Lauri Ylönen and drummer Aki Hakala.
Interview:
In their childhood everyone is dreaming about growing up and being a rock star. You made it. You’ve imagined it like this?
AKI: When I was small my biggest dream was to once become a hero firefighter. But as you can see I’m pretty small. Physically i wasn’t good for it, so they didn’t
accepted me. My second dream was to play drums, and luckily this went good.
LAURI: What concerns me, i wanted to become a rock star when i was younger, but not a singer. I didn’t fancied at all my voice, so i haven’t even thought about it. I still
remember how it was when first i had to listen to myself from cassette. It was weird and i didn’t liked it at all. But i think most people are in the same situation. It’s like you wouldn’t
listen to your own voice, but someone else’s. My sister was who told me to sing. She liked my singing and said it’s worth making it better. I’m grateful to her for this.
And when came the moment when even you yourself believed that your voice is good?
LAURI: Well, … I’m still waiting for that. (laugh)
Since the secondary school you play together, and the time spent together is longer than some of the marriages today. Other bands would maybe be interested, how you do it…
AKI: We are not just simply friends, but more like brothers. If someone for example would need some peace, then we let him to go to a peaceful place and have some rest. There
is a strong relation between us, we respect each other. And i think this makes the job done.
LAURI: Yes, that’s what i wanted to say.
You have defined The Rasmus’ style as death pop, meaning pop music which is dead. For those who are not real fans of you, would you explain what does this exactly means?
LAURI: This is just a funny word we have made up. It seems that all the bands need a category where they would fit in. We were asked all the time to sum up in 2 words what
kind of music we play. But this was almost impossible to do, because we have many influences on us. Most of them from the end of the ’80s and the beginning of ’90s since we grew up listening
to them, and founded our first band then. Most of the rock bands from then are live legends even today. But sure we had influences of more modern music too like Muse or even hip-hop artists.
So, everything of these is in The Rasmus’ songs, but we don’t have strict rules what we can do and what not. We’ve tried a lot of things of those we like. And we would like to do this in the
future too. We are the bosses. We decide and hope, that the fans would also like the new things.
Would like tell me some stuff about your cooperation with Desmond Child producer? If i know right you have made an exciting thing based on a book for movie-makers.
LAURI: Yes, this is true. Desmond Child is a living legend. He have worked together with celebrities like Aerosmith, Alice Cooper and Bon Jovi and a lot more, who i worship
since i was a kid. We had the chance to partially make with him Black Roses. I lived with him for 2-3 months in the USA, in Nashville, and we started a really ambitious plan. Really we used a
book which was made for directors of movies. The authors explained based on Star Wars and E.T. how a really good movie should be built. We took this as a base for our album too. We made up a
basic story and wrote all of the songs like they would fit together. Like each of them would be part of the same story. It happened that we argued for hours long on some lyrics, to be
perfect. Most of the idea of this working plan was Desmond Child’s. I’m grateful, that i could work with him and i feel that since then i can write more exciting music.
In Debrecen, at the Campus festival there were a lot of fans waiting for you hours long before the gig, in front of the hotel and around the stage. Isn’t this tiring sometimes? (she means that fans go to the hotel/airport/backstage and stuff to meet them)
LAURI: No, exactly the opposite. It’s an amazing feeling that already at the airport we meet people who particularly come to see us even if only for a moment. Those most
desperate even wait 10-12 hours for us. This makes me think that once it will the time come when they won’t be curious of us.
Is this a real fear? Are you really afraid of this?
LAURI: Yes, this is together with all the stuff. Who knows what will be in 10-15 years. You know, we have just ended a 8-station tour with Alice Cooper and Scorpions. These
guys are not today’s chicks. They are above 60, so they are twice as old as we are, but they still rock. It’s unbelievable to see them and i just hope that we will be able to do the same
thing they achieved.

Iltalheti Article on the duet with Lauri Ylönen (The Rasmus) and Anette
The Article is basically a bit more about the duet between our boys and Anette Olzon
for the songs 'October in April'...
This is a bit the translation of it:
- The duet will be on the new autumn compilation release that Aki has previously mentioned.
- Lauri says he got on really well with Anette when there were filming the music video
- Anette pretty much says: The Rasmus is a great band and this duet song is absolutely brilliant... and she hopes someday she'll be able to perform the song live with the band.
