To be fair, I see where he's coming from.

HIM has sounded drastically more different since Love Metal and And Love Said No were released.

The word "poppy" keeps on repeating and it worries me, to be honest

At this point you shouldn't expect the cd to be heavy.

Just got an email that my Screamworks Tshirt is on backorder, and that it may be over a month before I receive it. Awesome haha. Anybody else get this? I ordered mine back on the 22nd of November.

lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screamworks:_Love_in_Theory_and_Practice either someone has the album or they're yanking our chains.

loveslastbreath · « **Reply #289 on:** December 18, 2009, 07:12:20 PM »

what leads you to believe that nothing we didnt already know?

stigmata92 · « **Reply #290 on:** December 18, 2009, 08:54:31 PM »

Well I've never seen the actual time lengths for each song until now. So either someone just put in random time lengths considering it is Wiki, or someone already has the album and put the times down.

heartkiller is right.

could be anyone...some random small time journalist/radio person who went and heard the album and wrote down the lengths.

im curious about the 12 min last track....

Here's a review of "Screamworks":

First Impressions: HIM ? Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice
By James Shotwell

Though the first single ["Heartkiller"] from HIM?s upcoming 7th studio album, Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice was just released to the masses less than 72 hours ago, the UTG offices have been jamming to the group?s most inpsired effort in years for over a week now!

For those of you already familiar with the band, you?ll be happy to learn that HIM is still HIM only now they have more energy and seemingly more enthusiasm about their material than we?ve seen in awhile. Tracks like the haunting ?Disarm Me? or the heavy, heavy ?Like St. Valentine? pulsate with heartache and musicianship like no other band today is capable of achieving. In fact, much of the album booms with this nearly unfathomable scale of song structure and composition that is destined to set the bar for all other 2010 rock releases to follow. There?s not only your normative dark, ambient tones over fuzzed/distorted guitars, but there?s also elaborate orchestral sections, blazing solos, and so much more that I don?t want to give away just yet as we still have to post a review of the entire album.

For those who only know the group through Bam Margera or perhaps have never actually listened to the band, now is the time to jump on the bandwagon. Once this album impacts, I think everyone will be vying for a piece of these young Finnish rock legends.

For now though, just know this: Screamworks is a heavy, romantic, dark, evil, beautiful, and breathtaking work of art that you definitely won?t want to miss.
