Into is the fourth studio album by the Finnish rock band the Rasmus. Released on 29 October 2001 by Playground Music, it was their first album to be released under the name "the Rasmus", rather than "Rasmus".
It is the band's first album with their new drummer Aki Hakala, who replaced Janne Heiskanen in 1999. The (international only) singles taken from it were "F-F-F-Falling", "Chill", "Madness" and "Heartbreaker/Days". Three of these were released in 2001 apart from "Heartbreaker/Days", which was released in 2002.
The album has sold double platinum in Finland and was the first album by the Rasmus to be released in other European countries such as France and Spain. They won four EMMAs in 2002 (the Finnish equivalent of Grammys) for Best Group, Best Album, Best Pop/Rock Album and Best Song (for "F-F-F-Falling").
On 20 February 2007, the album (special edition) was for the first time released in the United States by the record label DRT Entertainment. It did not contain any extra tracks.
