News: Finnish Rock Outfit The Rasmus Announce 2025 ‘Weirdo’ Tour Dates
3 min read
Finnish rockers THE RASMUS formed 30 years ago, led by founding frontman and songwriter Lauri Ylönen, immediately inking a major label deal after the release of their first EP in 1995. The band’s fifth album Dead Letters solidified them as a global force, achieving 8 Gold and 6 Platinum certifications with over 2 million copies sold worldwide and breaking the record for performance royalties received abroad on a Finnish composition. Its lead single “In The Shadows” received 6x Gold and 2x Platinum certifications, selling over 1 million copies and was nominated for Kerrang! Awards “Best Single” in 2004. The album won in five categories at the 2004 Finnish EMMA Awards, earned the band “Best Nordic Act” honors at 2003 MTV Europe Music Awards and garnered two awards for “Best International Artist” and “Best International Newcomer” at the 2004 MTV Russia Music Awards.
Since then, THE RASMUS have continued to evolve their sound with the perfect mix of melody, edge and showmanship; they also possess the ability to perfectly blend across genres—from mainstream pop and electronica to explosive rock and hard-hitting metal. THE RASMUS are now excited to announce that their upcoming track, “Rest In Pieces,” will be released on October 25. Pre-save it HERE. The irresistibly heavy, dark, and melodic song sets the tone for their forthcoming album. It also introduces their new partnership with premiere independent record label BETTER NOISE MUSIC who will jointly release the new music alongside Nordic indie label PLAYGROUND MUSIC.
THE RASMUS will support the new music with a world tour and today, October 21, have announced dates for their “Weirdo” tour across Europe from September 12 to December 6, 2025. See shows listed below. An artist exclusive pre-sale will begin tomorrow, Wednesday, October 23 and tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 25 via https://therasmus.com/.
