A sneek peek of another song from the new album is out. This time it’s ‘Shatter Me With Hope’. You can listen to it here.

Beginning with the near pop punk intro chords of “In Venere Veritas,” we quickly find HIM to not only be back on the scene, but with more energy than we’ve seen from them in quite awhile. Ville Valo comes across early as Matt Skiba did during the Good Mourning years of Alk Trio with his emotion-drained vocals and borderline graphic storytelling that is only amplified by the near perfected instrumentation of tracks like the late 80’s goth rock jam “Scared to Death” or the much progressive [and lead single], “Heartkiller.” The band swings in and out of rock subgenres with flawless progression that truly displays just how versatile they’ve become over the past 7 albums…” read full review from Under the Gun

February 2010 seems so far away and it’s a long wait until we can finally hear HIM’s new album. If you’re like me, you wan’t to get your hands on the album as soon as possible. Well, wait no more! You can secure your copy now at amazon.com
or at Amazon.co.uk
HIM’s first single Heartkiller, taken from their forthcoming album Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice, premiered today on the band’s myspace page. The long awaited single has brought out some mixed feelings amongst fans. But as HIM fans, we know there is one thing we can always expect from HIM … variety! I don’t know about you but I get bored easily with the same old beat. Luckily, with Valo and his crew that never happens. Each album is in it’s own way unique and different from the previous. And every song within an album is also different (you know what I mean, don’t ya?)
So, what did I think of Heartkiller? Well…ummm….errrr. Catchy? Yes. Radio-friendly? Check. Shakes my butt? I’m shaking it at this moment! Will it be a hit? I think so. Supposing I had never heard of HIM and listened to Heartkiller for the first time, would I like it? YES! Did I find it unique and breath-taking? No. BUT! In my opinion HIM’s unique sound lies within those songs that some how never make it to singles… so I’m definately buying the new album!
