Rumat sävelet (Finnish for "The Ugly Notes") is the second album of Finnish punk rock band Hassisen Kone. It was a successful follow-up to the group's debut Täältä tullaan Venäjä, and was certified platinum in 2005.[1]

Ismo Alanko has said that the album's lyrics partly reflected how he experienced the sudden success of their debut album.[2] This is most evident in the song "Jurot nuorisojulkkikset" ("Surly Youth Celebrities"). Hassisen Kone played the song in 2000 at a reunion concert, even though Alanko thought it was strange singing the song as a 40-year-old.[3]
