HIM

HIM is one of the most successful Finnish rock bands, formed in 1991 by vocalist Ville Valo, guitarist Mikko Lindström and bassist Mikko Paananen.

The band first performed cover versions of the songs "Black Sabbath" and "Kiss". Only in the mid-90s Valo began to compose his own material.

The band's debut was the 1995 mini-album "This is Only the Beginning".

The following summer, HIM recorded the single 666 Ways To Love: Prologue, and in 1997 released their debut album Greatest Lovesongs vol. 666 ". But the band became widely known for the cover version of Chris Isaac's "Wicked Game" performed by "HIM".

The group released their second album "Razorblade Romance" in 1999, and it became really successful, hitting the top lines of the German charts.
