April 20/21 - Birmingham Academy
April 23 - Glasgow Academy
April 24 - Newcastle Academy

H.I.M is gay.
^^^true story.

how can a band dress "gothic" and look completely gay.
the vocalist is gay.

hes as gay as the vocalist from my chemical romance.

gay. gay. gay. gay. gay.

lol.
They're emo and claim to be gothic.
They make music thats for the people who are in touch with their "feminime" side.
I'm quoting this from what HIM's frontman said.

Its sad that theyre trying to sell their image rather than concentrating on doin good music because they have none.
XD

so nice of me to bash people's taste in music.
^_^
i love it.

Who cares if they are gay or not. It is the people that have a problem with the way people are that need special help. If you have a problem with the way people are...live somewhere else...maybe...the ground will accept you...outerspace....you could go there too...

HIM is awesome !!!

Thank God the Manchester gig has been reschedualed...I'm sooo excited!! x3 I love Finnish bands.
Just for the record, HIM are a metal band . Simple. Not all metal has to be limited to a certain sound, that sound being one or two bands. =/

I totally agree with Su.

26. Symbolic writes:

Su is right, How can you f***ing idiots say HIM is emo? not only was emo not even Invented when they came out, but if their was no Black Sabbath or Type O Negative their would be no HIM, so are black sabbath and Type O emo??? haha I think not, f***ing posers.

# Jan 30, 2006 @ 10:33 AM ET | IP Logged

27. HIm fan writes:

yea I no that HIM aren't emo and I never said they were HIM aren't metal though they are Love Metal and I love Type O and know without Sabbath and Type O their would be no HIM so i think you may want to think about what you type

30. psythe writes:

how about reschedule it for NEVER! and do the same with anything they ever plan to do.

Maiden are ok, Slayer and Priest rock on proper though. Nightwish are less good than His Infernal Majesty.
