Rock Eyez Webzine reviews Screamworks

5 February 2010

Finnish band HIM has just released their new offering called “Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice”. Just imagine going from small clubs in Finland to platinum artist, known worldwide and with the legions of dedicated fans clamming for new music, this is just a stepping stone to world domination for this group.

With the memorizing vocals of Ville Valo and the aura of greatness, the opening track “In Venere Veritas” jumps right into high gear. Surely to be a fan favorite with the power and excitement shining through and the guitar work by Mikko “Linde” Lindström is vibrant and stunning.

Track two “Scared To Death” has a vibe of THE CURE with the subtle acoustics and keys giving the track a heavenly feel. Loved this song!

You know, living in America there are so many bands but you see this logo on people’s cars and homes and wonder what the insignia means. Many are curious and track down the logo and find it’s associated to the band HIM. They check the band out and are delighted with the innovative direction of the music. HIM is the next step in music, they have pop and a calming feeling to their songs yet are powerful enough to reach the masses.
