HIM (His Infernal Majesty) Discography
HIM
HIM is a rock band from Finland formed in 1991 by vocalist Ville Valo, guitarist Mikko Lindstr�m, and bassist Mikko Paananen. They have released six full length albums to date. As of 2008, they are the first and only Finnish band to have an album certified a "gold record" in the United States.
HIM's genre is debated in some circles; their musical style is often referred to as "love metal" by Valo and by the group's fans. Ville Valo has stated that the band started as a "Black Sabbath tribute band of sorts". Valo stated in an interview on the Love Metal Archives Vol. I DVD, that he was fed up with journalists and interviewers asking him (Valo), and the rest of the band what the genre of HIM was. He said in answer to that question, they created the genre entitled "love metal" (which was also the name of their 2003 album.) Critics, incorrectly or not, frequently refer to them as alternative rock, gothic metal, or gothic rock. However, their musical style varies between albums and songs.
