Poets of The Fall<\/a> sl\u00e4ppte sitt nya album ”Temple of Thought<\/a>” den 28 mars.<\/p>\n

Bandet har en intressant bakgrundshistoria:
\nS\u00e5ngaren Marko, gitarristen Olli och keyboardisten Captain b\u00f6rjade sitt musikaliska \u00e4ventyr 2003. Marko s\u00e5lde allt han \u00e4gde, flyttade hem till sina f\u00f6r\u00e4ldrar f\u00f6r att tillsammans med sina v\u00e4nner Olli och Captain kunna investera i deras livs k\u00e4rlek, musiken. De byggde om Captains vardagsrum till en studio d\u00e4r de kunde spela in och producera musik och anv\u00e4nde Ollis gamla bil till kontor. Detta resulterade i deras f\u00f6rsta guldskiva. <\/p>\n

Sedan dess har det g\u00e5tt bra: Efter att ha s\u00e5lt guld och platina av de senaste fyra skivorna s\u00e5 siktar Poets Of The Fall p\u00e5 att g\u00f6ra det \u00e4nnu en g\u00e5ng med bandets femte album \u201dTemple Of Thought\u201d. Bandets l\u00e5tar har spelats flitigt p\u00e5 bland annat. Bandit Rock och bandet kommer snart p\u00e5 turn\u00e9 i Sverige. Det nya albumet bjuder, tillsammans med Markos starka, ljuva och melodiska st\u00e4mma, m\u00e5nga riktigt bra rockl\u00e5tar. Bandet uts\u00e5gs till Best Finnish Act p\u00e5 MTV Europ\u00e9 Music Awards 2006 och Best Finnish band p\u00e5 NRJ Radio Awards 2006. De har n\u00e5tt miljontals lyssnare genom att deras l\u00e5tar medverkat p\u00e5 dataspelen Max Payne och Alan Wake.<\/p>\n

Kulturbloggen st\u00e4llde n\u00e5gra fr\u00e5gor till Marko Saaresto, s\u00e5ngaren i Poets of the fall.<\/p>\n

How do you want to describe your coming album?<\/strong>
\nIt’s sizzling blend of the good old Poets of the Fall sound with always something new and unpredictalble added in the mix. All brand new songs, ranging stylewise form the nigh fragile emotionality to the dangerous and gnarly grindcorish lash outs. In between these there are a wide variety of titles to effortlessly carry the music from one piece to another.<\/p>\n

Is it different from your four other albums?<\/strong>
\nYes and no, meaning the underlying story is different, yet Temple of Thought is the third part of a trilogy, consisting of Sigs of Life, Carnival of Rust and now Temple of Thought. So there has to be similarities to the previously released music, as well as something new to take the music on and allow us to evolve \ud83d\ude42 Musically, with The Happy Song, Temple of Thought also leads on to the next trilogy we started with Revolution Roulette, followed up by Twilight Theater.
\nThat second trilogy is still waiting for its completing third album \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

You are going on a tour soon: what can we accept from that?<\/strong>
\nThis time around we’ve chosen some of the good old tunes we haven’t played in years, to go with the new ones, and of course most of the favorites are there as well. It’s a night of crazy rocking fun vibe and energy.<\/p>\n

How did you choose the title for the album?<\/strong>
\nWe we’re looking to complete the trilogy I mentioned earlier. We already had Signs of Life. We had Carnival of Rust. Temple of Thought kept us waiting many years, but when it came to us, there was no question about it.<\/p>\n

How do you work during the creative process? Do you work together with the songs?<\/strong>
\nDefinitely. We all work by ourselves first, then we get together to review and refine our original ideas, then we go away and work on them some more by ourselves and come back again, and finish them together.<\/p>\n

Usually it’s a long process and many different things happen along the way. Sometimes we start with a song and in the end what comes out of it is something completely different. You wouldn’t even recognize them as the same song we started out with. Other times the process is very sudden, and the song almost seems to write itself on the spot.<\/p>\n

Can you tell us something about the new songs?<\/strong>
\nThey should be heard, really heard, so they can be felt and once you feel them, if you close your eyes, you can see them …<\/p>\n

Is there any songs which is very special for you?<\/strong>
\nThey are all our babies, so sure, all of them… for me especially, titles like Cradled in love, Skin and The Ballad Of Jeremiah Peacekeeper touch a deeper note…<\/p>\n

What are your influences in music?<\/strong>
\nLife.<\/p>\n

What do you do when you are not making music?<\/strong>
\nSleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
