Heh, thanks. I tried to leave my fanish side behind and be more realistic and objective. With that the result as you can see is 9.0 LOL |

| Very good review. In my opinion the best song from this album is The Heartless. Anyway, for me, it's not HIM's best, but I agree with you that the songwriting is perfect. |

@Valmont: ok, I get the idea of 9.0  But anyway, aren't reviews meant to be subjective?  |

Well not necessarily but it's upto the writer. I don't wanna spend my time writing hateful words on an album when one of my favorite bands' album stays un-reviewed. And it's kinda like a shield for possible haters. Right? |

Thanks much for your comment. I appreciate it. |

| @Valmot: Well, that is correct. I've done some reviewing myself, never posted here though and I must say I also never wrote a review just how much I hate a certain album or how much is some album swell to me and that's it. That is why I said I like your review, you showed you liked the album (which is awesome, just listening to it ), like the band and put down the facts why so. And yea, it is a good shield for possible haters... Especially when talking about HIM |

| Inspired by this review I went to buy the album and I have to admit it wasn't bad at all. I had seen this album before in the stores but never really stoped to have a look at it... It's a great album, with some songs not so widely known. Very good album (including review ) |

Wow! I'm thrilled! Thanks very much. Glad you like it. HIM has to pay me now man.. Seriously, I make 'em sell!  |
|
|
|
| But that's the point of the reviews, to give an opinion to the buyers about to buy or not the album! |

Well, saying that only proves that you don't know HIM or the band is just not your type. Now i don't even take that emo sh*t for 90's HIM (you can see up there, this album is from 1997) but even today they are far far and far away from the emo type. What they do today can be described as just.. pop. Almost anything that comes out of the world of materialism in other words the American music industry is just plain sh*t and should not be listenend. So if you meant that, i'm with you. I hate their new stuff too but talking random sh*t about 90's HIM is just ignorant. Thanks for the comment. |

yeh - talking as a HIM-hater myself, the first album isnt so bad. they had some credibility then
i find it refreshing to find HIM fans that dislike the new stuff this band is putting out as well
(i cant believe i just posted about HIM on here) |

| I don't like HIM very much and i think that only Razorblade Romance deserves a written review. |

Well, this album is the only reason for HIM's presence in MS. I also thought about writing a review on Razorblade Romance but then for some reason i gave up. |

This is the album that sounds closer to metal... Personally, I love this album and the EP, it shows the best lyrics and music of the band (well, Razorblade Romance is an album that I love too, although this album is more glamy ). I love the band, but really I prefer this HIM... the Dark Light "experiment" it's so far of the project that I heard and liked.... but they still like me so much.
One thing:actually they don't play metal, there's no doubt, everybody know it... so what's the fuck&%ng matter? 
Leave the HIM fans in peace hahahahahahaha  |
