A new book! New content? Let’s hope so.

On more than 200 pages, author Marc Halupczok plunges into the deep waters of the world of Ville Valo and his colleagues, fathoms the band’s comet-like rise as well as their growing to be internationally established and he also brings to light quite some interesting detail from the private life of their lead singer. You can pre-order the book at amazon.
About the Book
HIM, with volcalist and abject of desire Ville Valo leading the way, took the music world by storm! Wicked Game or the legendary Join Me became anthems that the fans around the world sing along with ethusiastically. Now, the real, unofficial and secret biography is published, retracing the band’s and its mastermind’s way and gives you some understanding of of the heartthrob and the heartrockers. The author accomplishes this feat with the help of the HIM discoverer Silke Yli-Sirniö, who the band members lovingly call “Mutti”.
