HIM's Ville Valo on 'Venus Doom,' Rehab Stint + 'Screamworks'

[@applepop7293]

About Bam - "He gives himself too much credit." 😂 Thank God he finally said it.

[@bryanstellfox8521]

Apple Pop Ville got sick of Bam after he got sober. It's hilarious looking back and seeing how their relationship changed as Bam got more drunk and Ville got more sober. I could see it on his face like...why the fuck did I ever think this guy was cool? Oh right, I was hammered.

Bryan Stellfox this 👍

[@rachealmurphy6715]

@@bryanstellfox8521 Yes! Ville grew up and Bam didnt

[@i_unfriend_u]

I would like to think that they're still friends in some way, but I understand why he doesn't associate with Bam anymore. Ville sobered up and turned his life around. Bam fell to rock bottom. Not to mention that Bam tries to give himself way more credit for the band's success than he deserves.

ville is such an inspirational guy!

[@tayrubio3632]

5:11 his laugh is everything

[@ANomadeCosmica]

Totally agree XDD

[@lorenzobarichello5180]

5:10 Best laugh I've ever heard.

[@CatsCoffeeGuitars]

Venus Doom is definitely my favorite album from HIM as well! Damn, how good it is :D

[@bryanstellfox8521]

Cats, Coffee & Guitars I remember being in high school, and I got the news that they were cancelling their tour, and I couldn't see them. I was pissed. Then Venus Doom came out and Ville said he had to cancel because he just had to write this album, and hearing it just made everything clear. Their absolute best album...and it came out with almost zero marketing.

[@CRebel2024]

Brilliant interview!

[@paulinacarlisle7389]

Ville is so genuine

[@att1413]

Its so weird how much his accent has gone away

[@Paulmatthew22]

Nice to hear about him being sober during ScreamWorks,.Their BEST effort overall

[@DeathMetalRob]

the "he's out of his fucking mind" laugh. I don't see valo singing about dudes anytime soon. LOL

[@xBaphometHx]

For me, Razorblade is on top with Venus Doom for sure.

[@vanilla5245]

love him

[@dontmakelemonade]

Still waiting for that Venus Doom vinyl release. Sire records you know what to do.

[@Hellyeah0036]

+Edward Hippisley-Cox Totally agree on that one !! :)

[@dontmakelemonade]

+Hellyeah0036 We can dream :')

[@Hellyeah0036]

Yeah ! Maybe one day it will happen :)

[@dontmakelemonade]

+Hellyeah0036 I'm always hoping it'll be available on Record Store Day. They'll be announcing this years list of limited editions this month. I doubt it will happen but *fingers crossed*

[@Hellyeah0036]

Damm, it would be awesome for sure !! But RSD edition or not, I would like, at least, a LP version of this brilliant album :)

[@7ly_s]

God bless you

[@anndavis8750]

I feel like the guy interviewing him does NOT understand Ville at all.

[@douglasgehrling8011]

We need an update on villie

[@annsitar330]

I pray 🙏 hes doing well now he can get threw this!!!!!

[@BatoBoss2]

He speak better English than American People :D What a great voice when he talk. When i first time saw a Him concert on TV, after a few days I started taking drugs because of himself, first Extasy, later Cocaine, Heroin and other stuff. When I saw that demonic and detached face in the song Join Me from that Rockpalast 2000 concert, I was shocked, I immediately had the desire to look like that. I still looked a lot like him in my face, except that I have brown eyes, I had a lot of girls at the time, but that's why I struggled with that shit after 10 years. I barely made it out :D

[@Javv6669]

so there was a fight between them and Bam...

[@keishasutherland5339]

+Javv6669 It wasn't with Bam, that I know for fact. Ville however, during his really bad drinking stages was in somewhat of a relationship with Kat Von D. that could be it. But Im not positive, and it's not really my business, so I don't bother to care.

[@Deeznutseighthundredthirty]

Bam blamed Ville for his downwards spiral with alcohol because he they were really close years ago and Bam wanted to be like Ville in every way. If he saw Ville in a blazer, he got a blazer. If he saw Ville smoking and drinking excessively, he would do the same. But Ville never made Bam make those choices.

[@Javv6669]

@@Deeznutseighthundredthirty yep, now I know that 🫡

[@demayoexperience]

Fast forward to 2022, what does Bam have to say about Ville Valo?

[@rumisfordrinkingnotburning]

[@jebclang9403]
