Black Roses is the seventh studio album by the Finnish rock band The Rasmus, which was released on 29 September 2008 in the UK.

According to Dynasty Recordings' MySpace profile, the band rested in Helsinki during the winter 2006 and also wrote songs for the upcoming album.

The band started recording the new album in Dynasty Studios, Helsinki, Finland 17 September 2007 for a month and in the end of the year went to Nashville to go on.

The album was originally planned to be released in March, but was delayed due to new songs the band still wanted to record, including "Livin' in a World Without You".

However, a few of the album's songs, such as "Ten Black Roses", "The Fight", and "Lost and Lonely", contain symphonic rock/metal elements.

Lauri Ylönen stated on the Austrian television station Go TV, that the duet with Anette Olzon (Nightwish) was to be released later in 2009.
