Poets of the Fall – King of Fools 2020
Last May (2019), I asked Marko about a live DVD, especially since the Ultraviolet tour is so awesome and it would be incredible to have it recorded somehow. M@H: Is there any chance that you would consider releasing a second live DVD in the near future? Marko: Never say never, but we don’t have any such plans at this time. It’s a huge undertaking to get one done, both financially and time wise and with the market for DVD’s dwindling, so I dunno. Having said that, it would be a good idea, if the right show comes along.

World Wide Listen – Poets of the Fall International Listen Day
This time of year again, and although I am busy like a bee and a bit under the weather despite all the fun… I needed to free a moment or I would have been disappointed with myself and that won’t do. So… let me tell you a short story for a short post. Hop on board reader! 😀 “Whatever you do… don’t scream!” “SHOUT!!!” December 5th, 1970… … somewhere in Finland a little boy is taking his first breath meanwhile, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Nazareth, Black Sabbath are – or soon will be – reaching the height of their international fame. Coinkydink? I think not. This little boy’s name:…
Poets of the Fall – Le Trabendo, Paris
Before we start… this post will be updated with more pictures during the week, so make sure you come back to check them out 😆 and now, without further ado, Jari… drum-roll if you please! This is the second time this year that Poets of the Fall is visiting Paris to give my native country a show to be remembered. I might be slightly partial to the Finnish poets, but hey, that is what I am known for – partly 😛 . Jokes aside, I am starting this post as I travel towards Swedish airport, Arlanda. Today, is long grey day, but it is a good day. I’ve always wanted to write…
Poets of the Fall – My Dark Disquiet (official video)
It is no secret to say that My Dark Disquiet is my absolute favourite song from Poets of the Fall latest album, Ultraviolet… mostly because I say it over and over to whomever cares to listen. When the band announced a week ago that the official video would premiere today (30.09.2019), I was so excited that my heart skipped a beat and I was dancing the victory dance in my head. When I realised that Miika Hakala would be directing said video, I could not contain my joy. Finally, when I learned that the song would be featured in the game Control, I decided to get to playing it… Fair…
The Old Gods are back… and they’re in Control
The Old Gods of Asgard (*)… the legend has crossed back into our dimension to serve us a mind blowing track called Take Control. Oh-My-Gods!!! I mean, have you guys heard it yet? Have you listened to those incredible – almost – 8 minutes? Oh-My-Gods!!! Phenomenal… Control by Remedy Entertainment I have never been a video game “nerd”, like many of Poets of the Fall fans are, or even band members … but, I have to say that the song Take Control made me loose my marbles. I invested in a Xbox One and for the anecdote that shows how much NOT of a geek/nerd I am… when I installed…
Poets of the Fall – Spot the difference
Before I even start… though it stroke me as I proofread for the uptenth time… The still photo for Partir Avec Moi, seriously, I am ashamed not to have noticed this before, really. Look at the colours!!! French song… colours: blue white red… the French flag! My flag and I have not even seen this.? Looking everywhere for the less obvious when the most obvious is in my face. Who else did not notice? I am not going down alone, people!? The Sweet Escape vs Partir Avec Moi. In my previous post, I promised you an extra article comparing the videos. After struggling with two YouTube windows opened playing the…
