Poets Of The Fall

Poets of the Fall's unique blend of pop, rock, metal and industrial sounds has earned the band a wide fan base in their home country Finland, as well as abroad. Ever since their debut Signs of Life in 2005, the band has toured among others in Germany, Sweden, Norway, U.S.A., Russia and India.

So far the band has released four albums, all of which have gone straight to number one on the official Finnish album chart - something no-one else has done before. They have won numerous national and international awards with their music and music videos, most prominently two Emma awards (Finnish Grammy) and MTV Music Award for the best Finnish act.

Late Goodbye, the band's first single, was featured in the best selling video game Max Payne 2. The song War from the fourth album Twilight Theater, as well as two new songs written specifically for the game, are heard in the blockbuster XBox360 title Alan Wake. The first single Dreaming Wide Awake from Twilight Theater was one of the most played songs on Finnish radios for several weeks in a row, and the accompanying video one of the most played videos on TV.
