They have had five of their studio albums verified platinum in Finland with Razorblade Romancebeing certified double platinum in Finland and platinum in Germany. Now The End Records will be offering remastered vinyl reissues of the band's trailblazing early catalog in standard and deluxe configurationsincluding Greatest Love Songs Vol. 666 (1997), Razorblade Romance (1999), Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights (2001) and Love Metal (2003).
By the time HIM released Razorblade Romance in 1999, its fans were well-versed in the band’s oeuvre, as well as its lyrical fascination with love and death. Its first official full-length album, 1997’s gothic-kissed Greatest Love Songs: Vol. 666, focused on the agony of pining after the object of one’s desire, a person whom Valo frequently beckoned to join his side. The tightly intertwined themes of amour and mortality remains strong on Razorblade Romance. But instead of longing for affection, the lyrics also detail the unexpected results of capturing someone’s heart: The union that finally occurs doesn’t live up to the expectations of countless lovelorn fantasies, and being emotionally abandoned by the person who’s lying in your arms perpetuates another cycle of mortal pain.
