The Rasmus have teamed up with Theory Of A Deadman’s Tyler Connolly for a new version of their song “Creatures Of Chaos.” You can check that out below. The original track appears on the band’s latest album “Weirdo.”
Frontman Lauri Ylönen commented:
“Tyler is an amazing singer and he added a new dimension to the song. This song is one of our best from the new album and it’s so cool that it gets some spotlight now.”
Connolly continued:
“I got asked to guest sing on this Rasmus song and once I heard it, I was like, ‘Heck Yeah’! Loved the track and love the band! Really enjoyed the back-and-forth verses between us, and it truly rocks! Now I got to get myself to Finland!!!”
Ylönen also added:
“[The single is a] global shout out and an invitation to all misfits and anyone out there who’s ever felt like an outsider to join us! It was one of the first songs, and that’s kind of how the album title came about.
It’s also about accepting people as they are, which in this world is getting much harder for people to do. For me, it’s more personal: I sing like I could have been a soldier, but I’m afraid of guns. I could have been this or that, but I wasn’t strong enough to be those. My job is to do this. And I’m singing to one fan in the front row, giving her or him strength to carry on. It’s another kind of hero.
[It’s] also about the pressure of social media. People feel like by 25 they need to have money, investments, be somebody. A lot of people are scared of growing up. I’ve always gained strength from being the underdog, and I love that. It keeps me going.”
