I feel like they're trying waaay too hard to be HIM. Ville and co. don't put on an act...that's how they are. These guys are definitely "trying".
See their other videos, "616" and a cover of Paranoid and Rebel Yell. REALLY????

Maybe we can get these guys to tour the rest of the USA in place of HIM.  If you squint, you'll never notice.

I guess If I get as wasted as Ville, yeah, I won't.

I really don't like the singer's voice.

This is pretty bad.  Even if I didn't know who HIM was and came across this, I wouldn't be a fan.

The music sounds very thin, and the video is not shot very well.

It's clearly an homage to HIM, which is a kind way of saying that they ripped 'em off. All in all, not a fan.

Keep the music and ditch the singer for someone who can actually sing and I'd be interested.

The guitar player even uses a Laney amp! Hahaha!

And before anyone says anything, I know they're good amps, but I don't think he'd be using one if Linde didn't.

He's also using a white SG. I'm not a fan of these guys, but i liked the defense when someone posted a comment about the singer trying to be like Ville haha

not shot very well? i think i've seen a lot of worse videos of better known bands ;-)

an homage to HIM - yes, but where's the problem? this forum is also kind of an homage to the band...

That's not what homage means. The forum doesn't collectively get together and play music that sounds very close to HIM, and shoot videos in which we act like caricatures of HIM.

...and an EP entitled "Smoking kills but love can break a heart" with a song "Beautiful Monster".
?Austria's modern but melancholic equivalent of an 80s Bon Jovi"
And the whole DSBH-look:

The Dead Alley video also has ideas from BABL
