HIM's Ville Valo on 'Razorblade Romance' + 'Deep Shadows' Frustration

[@xuxushushu]

It must be draining to have Bam constantly credited for HIM’s fame. They were already well on their way by the time he heard of them. He may have exposed HIM to a wider audience, but the music was the success of the band.

[@MrSushii777]

Yep, and Bam had nothing to do with the making of the music, in fact, he's not even a musician as far as I know at least.

[@87thevic]

Your a total hottie

[@ThomasLiberoRock]

That’s true. Bands don’t last if they have no good songs

[@LaVerdad65]

I think at least in the US it's fair to say that Bam did a lot for them

[@TheDarkEthereal]

I remember feeling aggravated to see Bam trying so hard to be Ville.

[@TheLightTreader]

I personally think all their music is very good and the members are awesome. VilleValo is an intelligent and interesting person as well as a very amazing singer.

[@savagesweetheart90]

Razorblade Romance BEST ALBUM EVER!!!!

[@MrOwolabi77]

Correct!!

[@francismotionless393]

Annaliese Targaryen dark light and or venus doom are my favs.

[@deadlynightshade1658]

In this genre yes, overall no...one of the best. There were soooo many great albums that it is hard to pick one which is "the best". Matter of opinion too

[@Queennatalie1999]

Razorblade romance demos are amazing actually

[@Guanjyn]

Deep Shadows is one of my favorite albums.

[@KMnnA]

I been a HIM fan since 2005, I don't have a Favorite album because I love every Album the same but my first album was Dark Light ! 🤘💜

[@wayhectic8615]

Same here

[@androo-4648]

God - STOP mentioning Bam Margera 😒🥴

[@bunnykos9518]

I agree I can't stand when HIM is called Bam's band

[@androo-4648]

@@bunnykos9518 yeah 😑 I have no doubts that Bam plays a part in HIM’s success in America. Most skaters wanted to be Bam around that time, they dressed like Bam and started listening to HIM. I quite like old Bam Margera if you watch HIM VS Bam he’s not a bad guy at all but the relationship between him and Ville was all about drink. Ville stopped and Bam didn’t. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@MrOwolabi77]

Damn i was in Germany when Razorblade Romance was #1

[@aedj73790810]

Me too

[@odt4492]

Razorblade Romance is an awesome album. wish there would be a reunion.

[@whysoseriousbaby]

Razorblade Romance Is my fav album of all times

[@williamlight7122]

RR & DS&BH era was madness for HIM.

[@lillylazer429]

Love Razorblade Romance and Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights

[@hunterwhitner6998]

Razorblade romance is the best as well as early demos, but deep shadows and GLS666 were equally amazing. Him is one of the best bands with great Type O Negative influence. Even Villes solo is good. Fuck what anyone says.

[@joshuaharding7363]

I wish Ville was in the Crow Movies in the 90s.

[@JoeLaFon3]

You're my hero Ville

[@LigeiaNoire]

he speaking about about gas and NIN

[@francismotionless393]

H.I.M. is my fav band!

[@annekaelliot5417]

HIM are a Gothic rock band formed in 1991 from Helsinki Finland Finnish. Ville is 44 years old the lead singer. Gosh no wonder Foreign woman in Europe go crazy for their youthful looking faces

[@NecroCrafter]

Oh I miss you sir...

[@annekaelliot5417]

Fans fall silent when they meet their favourite band members, and forgot everything they wanted to say,

[@kaylasimon333]

Graham’s great at interviewing artists. most I cannot even watch they are usually so disrespectful

[@FanOfDaGamma]

Wing of a butterfly is the only song I know from HIM

[@kevinmyers3357]

And the sacrament!

[@user-zn3wm7pb3w]

Gr8 song

[@darrenharis5566]

damn i love ville tatoo left hand..

[@kykyamelia809]

Oooo iya inget aku, suhendro itu hanya selalu memandangi wajahku dari bawah kelas di lompongan sempit bawah sekolah sambil rokok an lalu selalu memandangi wajah ku dari berbagai sudut jarak dekat jauh gitu ajaaa 🤓

[@kykyamelia809]

Eeee ya suhendro itu yaaa santai santai saja sekolah denganku terus camping santai saja sama gitarnya nyanyi lagu Dan nya itu😅

[@kykyamelia809]

Sebenarnya yaaa ngobrol santai ngiri kegiatan kelas sebelah suhendro itu😅

[@kykyamelia809]

Aaaaa aku dan temanku di mata matai orang filandia dari satelit gituuu😦

[@kykyamelia809]

Him itu suka ngerasani anak gadis dimensi jauh sekali secara logika🤓

[@kykyamelia809]

Ooo iya inget aku, koko itu bisanya ya sholat sambil ndangak ndangak silo ndungo ndangak keatas lagi matanya sambil suka ngawasin aku berlarian diatas masjit gitu aja🤓

[@kykyamelia809]

Hahaha dah lupa sama raine pacarku masa lampau 😆😆😆😆

[@francismotionless393]

Hail satan I love razorblade romance.

[@annekaelliot5417]

never knew he was German

[@xBaphometHx]

For me, Deep Shadows was kinda disappointing when it came out. There was nothing about the sound of the previous albums, not the same atmosphere and depth.

[@francismotionless393]

xBaphometHx that's what made HIM so great, they weren't afraid to take risks. Ville had some great lyrics on it. "Close to the flame". "Please don't let it go." Amazing songs

[@Uknowjustin]

idk why that album gets so much hate - love that album from top to bottom

[@Jddp90]

And this is my second favorite.

[@aedj73790810]

It s my favourite..
