Him - Born Again Romantic

Him's journey from homeland obscurity to huge global success has been a triumph for both the band and for Finish rock generally, a genre which prior to the group's breakthrough had struggled to attract an international audience. Having coined the phrase 'love metal' to describe their melodic, hard-edged but emotionally charged sound they've been honing their craft since 1991 and in that time have built up an extraordinary back catalogue as theyÆve branched out from Scandinavia across Europe and now the world. With their US breakthrough album Dark Light going gold, Him has since cemented their place on the top table of rock-metal.
