New HIM Book
« on: October 02, 2006, 12:44:02 PM »
H.I.M. - His Infernal Majesty
Barry Keating

Paperback: 128 pages
Publisher: Plexus Publishing Ltd (26 Oct 2006)
Language English
ISBN: 0859653927



H.I.M. are set to be the hot goth/alternative rock act of the decade. Led by their charismatic and photogenic vocalist Ville Valo, the band have established a new rock genre, which they describe as 'Love Metal' - a fusion of gothic and mainstream rock influences that transcends existing genres and affords them enormous crossover appeal. In "H.I.M. - His Infernal Majesty", author Barry Keating recounts the full story of the band's rise from a Helsinki covers group to global rock phenomenon. In addition to a wealth of interviews and anecdotes, Keating explores the band's unique ethos and the genesis of their 'Love Metal' sound. Featuring many eye-catching images of this highly visual band, the author unveils the band's influences, describes their quest to bring gothic rock to mass audiences and recounts the breathtaking way in which their singular approach to music has brought them to the very cusp of global stardom.

Not sure if this has already been posted, doesn't look very interesting and at 128 pages it's hardly going to be that in depth :-\
