Pretty much they're starting where they ended with Venus Doom, Heartkiller is without doubt a very radio-friendly song (like Wings Of A Butterfyl was for example), I love it (I mean, I'm brainwashed by HIM, how could I not), but still hope the rest of the album is harder to digest. I disliked Venus Doom at first, love it now and I think it's acually a very underrated album. So, keeping my fingers crossed Screamworks will be a sucessful progeny of VD.

The song Like St. Valentine is pretty catchy too I think. I like it though, the video was released recently.. I think I like it better than Heartkiller.

The Worst HIM-record so far. ...And the name could be Dark Light II. Because Venus Doom was really good, it's hard to understand why go backwards, money? Katherine Wheel is the only track which kinda takes you with it.

I'm so hooked on The Foreboding Sense Of Impending Happiness I'm.... spceehcless. Can't rate the album quite yet, since I need to give it some more listenings, but so far Dying Song, Katherine Wheel, Shatter Me With Hope and of course the amazing The Foreboding Sense Of Impending Happiness are my faves.
Why am I not surprised this album got such lousy grades again.... Grow up people.

I like this album. It's no Razorblade Romance, but I would never call it shit. Valo is a genius.

I grew fond to this album after all the listening, and have to say I don't feel any disappointments at all. After DS&BH I needed time to get into their albums, especially Venus Doom - it seemed so blank to me when I first heard it, and now I absolutely love it. Screamworks is everything HIM is, it's closest to Dark Light IMHO, lighter than Venus Doom, and less catchy than DS&BH or Love Metal. But that's the beauty of it, song such as In Venere Veritas, Scared To Death, Katherine Wheel, Dying Song represent everything this band is about. And of course, The Foreboding Sense Of Impending Happiness, that came out totally unexpected, even for the band, is an amazing piece of something more experimental, but overall so mesmerizing it takes my breath away listening to it. Love,love,love that song, and even tho I'm not as teenager anymore, I still get shivers down my spine hearing Ville Valo singing, he's such an amazing vocalist and keeps getting better and better at it.

I already have my fav song. in the arms of rain is good stuff, i admit that the old him was better, but i'm not so single minded to pretend that a group remains the same for 20 years till i'm a fat with a black t-shirt and long hair arguing about singers and that... :P :P 
i'm happy that they still exist, same for 69eyes

I like this album but find Screamworks is very stylistically different to the previous album Venus Doom.
I preferred Venus Doom's heavier, deeper and grittier side, and felt that album was the best HIM album in recent years.
Tracks like Scared To Death, Heartkiller, Dying Song and Katherine Wheel are very poppy and give a nod to what this band has been doing since Razorblade Romance, and still doing it much better than on Dark Light.
All in all this band has changed very little and those who say otherwise either didn't know their music to begin with, wrote them off to begin with or have fallen out with the band due to their 'popular' status or image.

Lots of people will complain about this b/c it's actually catchy... eh, screw them.
Well, it's a huge improvement over "Venus Doom" IMO - an album that just tried way too damn hard.
Most of the songs on "Screamworks I either:
A) Absolutely love, or
B) never listen to
Lots of filler on this album, but the songs that aren't filler are fantastic. A step in the right direction I'd say...

This is an extraordinarily amazing album by HIM! I didn't expect this much enjoyment. Venus Doom is good, but Screamworks is even better, much better to be objective. All the songs are accessible, radio-friendly without being lack of creativity.
Fully recommended.
