The Rasmus unveil new single and video “Creatures of Chaos”

Author Benedetta Baldin - 28.3.2025

Finnish 6x Platinum and 8x Gold-certified, record-breaking rock outfit The Rasmus are back with their electrifying new single, “Creatures of Chaos,” released today (March 28) on all digital outlets via Better Noise Music and Playground Music. With their signature blend of dark atmospheres and anthemic melodies, the band once again proves why they remain a force to be reckoned with in the rock world. In their native Finland, where they are the reigning #1 rock band, The Rasmus stands at #1 on Spotify, YouTube, Instagram and Deezer as far as followers, views, likes and streams.

The video for “Creatures of Chaos” can be seen on the band’s official YouTube page HERE.

At its core, “Creatures of Chaos” is an anthem for outsiders, a rallying cry for anyone who has ever felt like they don’t belong.

‘Creatures of Chaos’ is a global invitation to all misfits and anyone out there who’s ever felt like an outsider to join us! The world is such a messed up place right now. I felt like going harder musically to match my feelings of being lost, scared and uncomfortable. People are so divided with their opinions that I find myself looking for hope and unity out of people like myself. It’s important to belong somewhere and take a stand with your opinions. ‘Creatures of Chaos’ is a shout-out to all people like us to come together. Lauri Ylönen

The song was written by Lauri together with Desmond Child and Marti Fredriksen, Child having worked together with the band on the previous albums “Black Roses” and “Rise”. “Creatures of Chaos” was tracked at Fredriksen’s Sienna Studios in Nashville. Joseph McQueen did some additional production and mixed and mastered the track at Sparrow Sound in Los Angeles.

Packed with driving riffs, anthemic hooks, and raw emotion, the song channels the spirit of rebellion and unity that has always been at the heart of The Rasmus’ music. The song was written by Lauri along with renowned songwriter Desmond Child (who contributed to the band’s “BLACK ROSES” and “RISE” albums and has worked with Bon Jovi, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, AerosmithAlice Cooper, among with countless others), and Marti Fredriksen (Aerosmith). Tracked at Fredriksen’s Sienna Studios in Nashville and produced by Marti Frederiksen and Desmond Child, with additional production by Joseph McQueen, it captures the band at their most dynamic and urgent.

Creatures of Chaos” is the follow-up to “Rest In Pieces,” which was released October 25, 2024 via Better Noise Music along with a lyric video that can be seen HERE (which currently has over 478k views). Fans can listen to it via their preferred streaming platform HERE.

With their signature blend of dark atmospheres and anthemic melodies, the band once again proves why they remain an aesthetic force to be reckoned with in the rock world. The Rasmus have also generated an impressive 829 million global career streams.
