Finnish hard rockers
the Rasmus became stars at home with their 1996 debut album
Peep, which earned them a gold record while the four members were still in their teens. With 2003's
Dead Letters, the band's popularity exploded in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, and made them a major draw in Europe as well as the leading hard rock act at home.
The Best of the Rasmus 2001-2009 features 17 songs recorded during the band's tenure with Playground Music; selections include "In the Shadows," "First Day of My Life," "F-F-F-Falling," "Justify," "Shot," and many more. ~ Mark Deming
