11. Acoustic Funeral / Like St. Valentine / Katherine Wheel (OO Megamix) OO consists of Ville and his brother Jesse Oliver.
Maybe most of You have already heard In Venere Veritas (Huoratron Remix), which is on the main page of www.heartagram.com. It sounds quite bizzare so everything is just about taste...there are a few quite good moments, but if you don't like it there is no need to curse about it and the band as well. Ville wanted for a long time to do a remix album so we can be only happy about it. Everything else does not matter. The music is his, so he can deal with it as he wishes. On the other hand Scared To Death (Diamond Cut Remix) is also available now, and I'm quite fond of it actually. It's pleasant but doesn't really stand out with anything special.
Eugene Riecansky is director of the video Scared To Death, which the band filmed in the beginning of the year in Melbourne, Australia. More interesting is that in his twitter account he posted a secret project with HIM that he is working on right now. Of course, obviously, it has to do with a new video probably from the remix album, but wether this is true or just another rumour, we'll find out in 2 weeks period!
This is the Promo picture of Daniel Lioneye for the upcoming tour in 2011. At the moment the guys are rehearsing quite intensively! ;-]
So from today you will be able to purchase SWRMXS. The price of the CD is 14$, but if you wish to get the limited eddition wich includes a t-shirt with the cover, you will pay 25$.
Here is the most interesting news for today :) Let's hope that very soon the whole Tiesto remix will be available. As you will nitice yourselve the track number 11 consists of three songs. For some of us that wouldn't be so appealing, for others would be. Let's wait and hear and we'll talk about it afterwards because many people reacted quite harshly already about the remix album.

Because Ville's got a birthday this month, I decided the best video of November to be connected to that little fact :p The video at the bottom is ripped from the Finnish TV which organized back at that day Ville's birthday. It was his 23 d birthday and the songs that they play are from the upcoming then new album - Razorbade Romance. The guys play a few songs, Ville blows the candles, a bit of presents and so on... ;)

HIM MANIA was chosen for fan site of the month by Heartagram.com. That's how in the next 30 days our website will be on the main page of the official HIM website. ;)
Probably most of you have already seen the new page SWRMXS from the menue to the left. There, you will be able too see all the available information about the expected in the begining of December remix album. The main purpose is to allow you to follow the topic without having to read through all the news; You just click on it and read all the detailed information straight away! ;)
Well it looks like the remix of Tiesto from SWRMXS is for the songe Love, The Hardest Way! On the web an interview is already leaked but is hard to reach because it's been constantly removed! You can check yourselve here Tiesto.com
Daniel Lioneye - Linde confirmed his role in the Cradle Of Filth tour, which is gonna happen in the beginning of February and will keep on untill mid March in US.Also Linde togather with the ex-bass guitarist of Mettalica Jason Husted, Tomi Iommi, John Lord and so on ripped the song "Out Of My Mind" as a donation project called WHOCARES. More information available HERE!
Initially the today's update had to contain some other things such as clips and video of the month but just a few hours before an EXCLUSIVE information leaked!!!
On December the 7th SWRMXS - Official remix version of Screamworks will be out! The album will contain remixes of TIESTO, Morgan Page, Gavin Russom както и на HUORATRON, MERCYFVCKS and SALEM. From 11th this month orders will be issued of the special edition. All this from www.heartagram.com
I don't know about you, but me personally am very anxious to hear what is all that about. The album is official and will be distributed in the whole world. In period of a few days we will know what will be the cover + cost, tracklists and so on. :D You can comment on that topic right HERE.
Originally me and Steam thought that we could have a poll every month so that to chose your favourite monthly video! We may do it in time but for now we count on you to publish in this THEME in th eforum your proposals! Do not forget to give your mark for the video via voting (the stars), as well as to leave your comment about it. We may broadcast very soon one Himmania Radio session ( 'as in the good old days'), but all that is up to you. ;)
For October this is the choice! We'll try in future to keep chose those kind of videos with good quality, not so largly available in the network and of course ones that haven't been played for years. As a start line let's see a pro-shot video from 2002, ripped just a month after the gig in Bulgaria. Also exactly at that gig the band played a song of their next album Love Metal. The song they played was Soul On Fire.
HIM - Stigmata Diaboli, Heartache Every Moment, Your Sweet 666 - M'era Luna Festival Hildesheim 2002
Mini sensation! After 11 years of traditional New Year's concerts at Tavastia, HIM broke down this so-called custom! The last few years it was known under the name of Helldone and the mini tour around Finland that they used to do was quite successful. This year though the guys will be able to celebrate not as colleagues but as friends ( although, in their case its the same thing). No worries - they haven't split or at least they haven't announced it yet :D , but in my opinion this is slightly possible to happen so they wouldn't really split just because of one "weak" album. The bad thing is that the weak albums became too many :D I'm joking...he, Ville loves to talk these stuff... in his opinion even Dark Light is weak although they broke all the rеcords back in Finland. And yet, it is true that for most of us this album can't reach masterpieces like the first works... Screamworks, ot the other hand, was just not well promoted!Tthe first time when I played it actually I was terrified and completely dissapointed. The songs seemed to me so much the same and uninteresting that I even didn't pay attention listening...in fact I'm talking about the first 6 songs. To me, personally ,from Katherine Wheel till the end- these are some of the most genius works that the band had created!But instead of releasing for singles songs like Disarm Me, Like St Valentine, Katherine Wheel, Ode To Solitude, they chose the most plain and weak ones. However, the bad thing is that Ville counted too much on this particular album before it was out and was hoping for great success ( or at least he kept mentioning it in the interviews) but nothing like this happened... actually the controversal - it seems like it is the worst seller in their whole dyscography. looks like they have to overthing some aspects and they will have the time for that now. at this tage they have stayed quite and seems like are taking a break, not doing much. i really hope that next year they will surprise us with a new material....incognito maybe...without much to say, all those things that lie inside their minds and hearts and just like BAAAAAM!!!But it is unlikely...let's see what Ville will say in the next interview...they surely have to make one by the end of the year so that to unveal what are their plans from now on...
And now bits about Linde! Just like Danny Fiels says in the beginning of 2011 Cradle Of Filth will tour shortly around USA and Daniel Lioneye will accompany them. For now it is not official but the last info from Linde about that was "still working hard to find a way to make the good news happen!"
And some surprises! As you know ville plays as Moto Moto in Madagascar 2. In HIMTube you will find parts of the Finnish version.
And this is a very seldomly available version of Gone With The Sin. It was edited primary for germany. There are scenes from the normal version, as well as some extra scenes with naked bodies!
What new? Well not much at all! Apart from the news that Linde got engaged to Toni-Marie Iommi - the daughter of the guitar legend playing in Black Sabbath - Toni Iommi.
Linde has a daughter at the age of 7, named Olivia. The mother is Mariam "Manna" Jäntti, who is actually in the music fields as well and has two full albums released.They never got married. For more information che out here - Bibliography.
As for the band there's not much to be said. Weak summer tour, no tour dates for the fall, even weaker sales of Screamworks and nothing for the last single Scared to Death. Just to mention as a comparison that in Finland Venus Doom, who was thought to be not so successful, were sold ~23 000 copies. From Screamworks to that very moment are sold about за ~16 000, while back in the days Razorblade Romance reached 100 000 copies, and only the single Join me - 30 000! Such a pity!... The album did not deserve such a poor faith but the managers seem to not trully care....
Linde, on the other hand achieved a great success with his side heavy project - Линде Daniel Lioneye. There is a small chance that he will tour during the spring in Finland and UK, but let's wait and see...
What could we expect in future? Me, personally, am hoping after the failiar of Screamworks that Ville will get over it as soon as possible and start working on new stuff. Do not worry too much. There is no information about new album or songs or whatever but it has always been thins way with him...after finishing something, he starts working on something brand new and so on, and so forth... They most probably will perform for a few concerts around New Year and fingers crossed that by then we will be aware what is going on in there heads for the future...
Maybe some of you have watched the movie Smallville!? It seems like in one of the episodes they have used Wicked Game! You could see the video from here- HIMTube
So here is the next hosted by him from GoTV. I had some problems with the audio delay but now its seems to be ok. Also I had to resize the video because Ville's part were shot in 16:9 aspect ratio but the music videos were in 4:3. Hmm well thats it.. :)
