On December 31 2017, HIM is coming to an end. After a career spanning more than two decades, the Finnish love metallers are bowing out gracefully, leaving an epic trail of Heartagrams behind them. Throughout the band’s eight studio albums, Ville Valo has cut open his heart and laid his emotions out for all to hear. HIM are master storytellers, weaving tales of loss, heartache, passion, lust, happiness, sadness, life, death and above all else, love.
