HIM is lucky to have such a dedicated fan base that is hard to disappoint if you manage to create a few catchy choruses. I consider myself a serious fan of them, trying to value their music by quality instead by mass market appeal. The reason this album is different from their last one is because it succeeds in both ways, although having considerable flaws.

Well, must say I am deeply intrigued what will come of this. With HIM I'm never sure what's gonna come out, untill I hear it, as Ville likes to lie about the upcoming albums. As waiting for Greatest Lovesongs or RR#2 is an utopic wish, I just wish it would be something more like Venus Doom and less like Screamworks.

Venus Doom wasn't that great, and Screamworks was awful. Anything worth a rating above 6 would be a pleasant surprise for me.

Venus Doom is probably my Favourite Him album along with Greatest Lovesongs, So was stoked to hear the band is working with Hiili Hiilesmaa again. He usually makes them sound nice and heavy (for HIM)

Sounds like any of their other albums (shocker). I admit they are a guilty pleasure of mine.

I love it. Much more than Screamworks, it's a mature mixture of the sounds of Venus Doom and Dark Light. Gosh, I love Valo's voice so much, I melt on the inside when I'm listening to him....

Stop seeing things and people in a binary way. Everything has its own spectrum and complexity. Be patient and learn about the world.

It does not come even close to Venus Doom or Dark Light... Not a chance.

Suit yourself, it's a matter of opinion and I don't really see the point in stating it like a fact. I am not any more or less ''wrong'' than you are.

Same sound, same lyrics, same shit; too much melody in this band; they like money a lot.

Way better than Screamworks and also sounds more mature than most of the previous albums. Was expecting worse

Probably one of those 13-year-old kids that think that anything that isn't thrash or black is gay. Poor SOB.

I guess it is necessary needed to be a fan of this style to comment something... Having listened to this album for three times, I don't even know what to say.. No emotions, no feelings, no satisfaction.. Finally, no note...)
