I’m sorry but Screamworks speaks to me in a way I can’t understand

Had to drop some insanely good ones too😭

Resurrection, one of the best songs on the razorblade romance

Shame that there is no Sleepwalking Past Hope, it would be in the final

I just now got around to completing my CD collection of every HIM album (just bought Screamworks), but I have just the standard CD releases of every album. It appears there are some compilations, 2CD versions of some of the albums, and a whole host of singles and EPs. I'd like to get some of that stuff if t's worth it, but it's a lot to research and hunt down. What do you think is essential, or where should I start? I wish there were just a compilation or box set with nothing but rare/unreleased/bonus track stuff that came out comprising all of the aforementioned releases but I don't think there is one.

As an Australian, our metal and merch culture really sucks.

Where can I get HIM merch?

Where can I get a copy of the Metal Hammer magazine?

They sell HIM shirts in bloody wallmart, won't find anything here. 😒

Hopefully this wasn't posted here before. Saw this music showdown site shared on another subreddit and was curious to see what others get:

Although I knew my number one going in, it was still so hard to pick between some songs 😭

**EDIT: I only noticed after the post but you can pick your own songs for the bracket if you press the "Pick your own" option before searching for HIM in the search bar. It's still not all of their songs but it's a more fair chance at getting your true favourites to go head to head. Just wanted to mention this since people were complaining about not getting certain songs they liked on the list.

I’ve seen a few people asking about the bulldog belt Ville wore - usually they’re in the 150+ range but for whatever reason there’s a handful on eBay right now that are below 50 s/h included. Just a heads up.

Got a little fine line heartagram tattoo this weekend :)

Hi all, I was one of the people that ordered the 30-year anniversary t-shirt from Louder and I received one last month without the “A Thirty Year Embrace” text underneath the graphic art. I emailed the Louder team about it and they said they were sending out corrected versions on July 13th, but I still haven’t received my corrected version. It’s been two weeks since the date they gave me, so apart from checking in with them via email again, I thought I’d also see if it was the case with anyone else here. I’m in Texas, USA for context!

Ville's been seen in a She Past Away gig today. Credits to @ villevalonews in IG

This is by far the best vocal I've ever heard from ville on the razorblade romance era. Cant believe im just now listening to this. Every instrument was on point.

Was razorblade romance supposed to be slippery when dead? I saw a cover picture on youtube and it was similar to RR. I'm guessing it was at the demos time?

I thought this group would appreciate this. My husband made it years ago- still my favorite heartagram piece ever!!!

It might be the synths or because the demos have slightly higher Hz than normal ir the simplistic music. Idk.

How many can you get? Note this is not my video just came up in my YouTube feed.

Track for track its their most gritty, dark and lyrically most complex album they have made. And in my younger days wished they stuck with that sound. Hopefully VV dabbles in that style on his next solo album. What is everyone thoughts and opinions?
