About this album

Universal Music Division Mercury (2006) Released: 16 Oct 2006 10 tracks (39:36)
Dead Letters (sometimes known as Feeling Guilty within the U.S.) is the 2003 album by Finnish alternative rock band The Rasmus. It was released in 2004 in the US, UK and Australia. Their previous album, Into, had been a success in some parts of Europe, particularly Scandinavia and Germany, but Dead Letters signified the band’s major break-through. “Dead Letters” received 8 gold and 6 platinum Awards, while “In the Shadows” received 6 gold and 2 platinum awards. “In the Shadows” which sold over 1 million copies reached historically number one on the list of Finnish compositions earning performance royalties abroad and so overtakes the works of Jean Sibelius.

The Rasmus recorded Dead Letters in June-December 2002 at Nord Studios in Sweden, reuniting with Mikael Nord Andersen and Martin Hansen, who had produced their Scandinavian hit album Into.

Lead singer Lauri Ylönen has explained the title of the album on the band’s website. “Each song is a letter to somebody. It could be an apology, confession or cry out for help”. On the back side of the album booklet there is a quote:
“ A dead letter is a letter that has never been delivered because the person to whom it was written cannot be found and it also cannot be returned to the person who wrote it ”

It was released in Europe in early 2003 and sold 1.5 million copies worldwide.
