So any Rasmus fans here? What do people think of them? The way they look? Their music? Their 'pop' status?

Disscuss please and vote.

I do like them, and I thought they'd be a one-hit wonder, but apparently "Guilty", their new single is pretty good. I haven't heard it yet. LOL, my mate calls them the Spazmus...

I saw them live not too long ago, they're dead good when you're there. That said, I saw a live performance on tv and it was awful.. Hmm.

What the hell?!?!?

They're pop, pure and simple. Quite catchy I suppose, but that's because they're pop.

I really liked In The Shadows but now I've heard it too much and its just annoying. Then i heard the album and I don't like them much at all anymore. I do think they look good tho.

I'm not a big fan, but even if they are 'pop', I'd rather listen to them than... ermm... other pop music (can't think of an example)

I'd rather listen to S Club 7 than the Rasmus, I honestly would.
What can I say? I did it all for the Wookies.

they're pretty awful in my opinion
i mean they come on and you think
"well they could be ok"
then they start playing and you literally have to throw the remote at the tv rather then watch it.

I agree Adj. My sister likes them, meaning my inbuilt 'chip' dictates I cannot.
I hope some day, for some reason, David Duchovny is investigated by the FBI. Because that would make a great story.

SO as the poll reveals proves is that in general people really dislike The Rasmus.

I don't care too much for them, I didn't mind in the shadows the first time I heard it, but then I saw the lead singer guy's neck in the video and felt ill, also heard it too often and am now just generally annoyed by them.

bon jovi aren't bad! some good tracks, livin on a prayer, hey god. and a couple of others. they're all good musicians, and at least they play more than one instrument each, as apposed to most new bands that can't even play one between them.

Absolute bilge, I see very little difference between them and S Club, as it's just really, really crap Europop with a few (crap) guitars thrown over it.

I do respect The Rasmus as they are a proper band, play their own instruments, write their own songs...etc and they've been a band for i think ten years. SO on that account i dont mind them. Personally i think that their problem is that their music is just getting boring.
