[@sagarmehra6634]

Holy shit. This is the first time I’m hearing Olli in a decade and a half of following them.

He is underrated AF, and I love him, and his playing.

Olli is great. So is the interview

[@radiocremebrulee4431]

Alena, this was a GREAT interview! I think you struck a great balance between the core art (that lies beneath the music of Poets Of The Fall) and the celebrity aspect of being rock stars. I actually loved the fact that you dove head deep into the symbolism of the album title "Ultraviolet". That is incredibly perceptive and something we (we are an online radio station out of New York City) completely missed (and now we're embarrassed). I also like the fact that Olli is vocal about the tradeoffs of fame (vs relative obscurity) versus the merits of being commercially more front and center. Perhaps, the band is able to retain their sonic integrity because they are not commercial machines like some of their rock contemporaries. Either way, this was a great interview and very well thought-out questions. Way to go! Last, but not least, I am glad you picked Olli versus Marko. It offers a different perspective of the process from another member of creative nucleus of Poets Of The Fall.

[@AlenaTalks]

Thank you very much😊

[@sagarmehra6634]

Such a fine interview. Very good questions and equally good answers. Very candid. Enjoyed it a lot!

PotF is a band I listen to and appreciate. Great interview, thank you. Also Olli seems to be such a genuine person with his feet firmly on the ground.. Which however does not surprise me for a Finn - most just are very modest, even if a "star"..

[@Aurinkohirvi]

Aha, so you have become a music journalist? Is this the new direction of the channel? Well he was very good person to interview! Talkative, considered his answers thoroughly and had fun with it. Also very good you asked them questions outside of just the music stuff and band plans, songs and albums: I'm sure they all get to answer hundred times to those questions. You got him talk about the band which I'm sure fans of the band would find nice to listen.

[@AlenaTalks]

Thank you! I wouldn’t say it’s the new direction. It’s a bit of diversity to my Music Sundays😁
