Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...9/18/25 
"We come from Finland, we are all from Helsinki, the capital city," stated The Rasmus front man Lauri Ylonen as he discussed the band's newest release, origins, songwriting and more. "We met a long time ago at school, we were 15 years old when we put the band together and that was about 30 years ago. So, it has been a long career for us, this will be our eleventh album, there have been a lot of things happening during those years but fortunately we are still together and only two of our members have changed. We have two original guys, me and the bass player and we're excited about The Rasmus for 2025."

Arcadio, O'Connor & Suarez: "The Cheese and the Worms" 
There's a monster on Sussex Street. It's a scarecrow, or a statue of one, anyway: big, sinewy, bug-eyed and irate, and almost tall enough to reach the second story of a residential building. This beast rises from the patio of a Paulus Hook brownstone and stares out at the block with a combination of menace and proprietary pride. From now until early November and possibly well beyond that, this will be his neighborhood. He's an early-blooming example of our favorite harvest species. He's a Halloween decoration.
