In this episode of The Rock Metal Podcast, we're chatting with VV (Ville Valo) about his new album ‘Neon Noir’ out now via Heartagram Records, distributed by UMG / Spinefarm. 


During our chat we touch on a lot of great tips for musicians, such as what it’s like to create a solo album for the first time.


'Neon Noir' was written, produced, engineered, and performed by Ville Valo (Helsinki), co-produced and Mixed by Tim Palmer at Studio 62 (Austin, Texas), mastered by Justin Shturtz at Sterling Sound (New York City), art by Ville Valo with Rami Mursula, published by Heartagram.

Heavy Hitters from today's episode:


1. Develop the skills necessary to worry about the trees, as well as the forest when creating art


2. Create authentic music with unique equipment and allowing the music to have quirks and blemishes


3. Finish your songs into an album to release to the world, rather than letting them lay dormant on a hard drive
