Poets of the Fall – Black Waters – The 13th Symphony
Black Waters is the song I did not know I needed, soothing like a calming balm on my restless soul. The thirteenth symphony of Carnival of Rust grew patiently so that it could become this fine golden thread wrapping Poets of the Fall trilogy of trilogies. Yet, according to Marko (24.04.2026 on Finnish television) lyrics and melody have not changed much since the birth of Black Waters. Am I seeing what isn’t there then, or did they already know the path they were about to follow? Quite the foresight, if you ask me. No End, No Beginning You know how Beyond the Horizon felt like a goodbye in the face…
Poets of the Fall – Echoes of the Carnival – 20 Years, Carnival of Rust
Carnival of Rust is to me what Late Goodbye is to the majority of Poets of the Fall‘s fans: an absolute and undeniable classic. My eyes discovered the incredible creativity of the band before my ears could understand what they were listening to. Since then, I never looked back, despite the doubts and mood swings throwing unapologetic punches at my heart through the years. Carnival of Rust is the song that started it all for me, or rather rekindled a flame I did not know was burning out and, I could never express well enough how grateful I am to Poets of the Fall. Echoes of the Carnival Oddly enough,…

Poets of the Fall, Ghostlight – Yhdeksän, Hello Cabaret
Poets of the Fall‘s ninth studio album, Ghostlight, released in 2022, is filled with gems that build up to my favorite song: Hello Cabaret. As I said, I won’t let go… Ghostlight is a masterpiece and as much as this is true, Hello Cabaret got me on an entire other level. It struck a chord within that left me numb and in utter awe even to this day. Why then did it take so long for me to write about it? Maybe because there are some truths we’d rather not face at once; they need to make their way through the right doors and at the right time or we…

Poets of the Fall – Viking Line, Vogue Club, Turku-Stockholm November 19th, 2022
Where are you going? – they hailed, as I ran passed them. I am going on an adventure! – I shouted back and waved at whomever yelled the question – obviously, this was happening in my head 😅. You never know when the time is ripe for you to experience something new. Life has taught me that when you are ready, your actions to make new experiences happen speak volumes about you and your state of mind at that moment. I work hard in that sense even though I often take long breaks in-between great milestones, I still work hard. Nothing worth gaining comes easy and I don’t know any other…
Poets of the Fall – Back to Le Trabendo, Paris September 25th, 2022
How do you prepare for a Poets of the Fall gig? 🙃 Personally, I like to reminisce about the previous one I attended… It was a while ago, September 2022 in Paris at the brilliant venue Le Trabendo. The band who stole my heart years ago, playing in my home country – though I don’t live there anymore, could not miss them there so I went again. It has become a bit of a tradition. This is the third time Poets of the Fall performs on the French stage. This made the show even more special to me, as you can imagine. Le Trabendo Le Trabendo, happily situated in Parc…
