Long have I waited to hear Ville’s take on Lana Del Rey. I am not disappointed. I knew he’d love her noir & melancholy. These 2 would be the ultimate collab.
Wow. I do love to hear Ville Valo speak. I’ve been a fan of HIM since maybe 2001/2, infinitely interesting. I have so many parallels with his way of looking at things/ experiences and not just with music. Definitely had the same experiences with horror and literature. I’m a Stephen King fan, which I think Ville isn’t. Still, it’s the same thing. still. Had the most privileged time of having a couple of beers with, Ville back in 2013. To my mind, he’s one of the greatest to ever do it. Every album with HIM and his solo stuff is phenomenal. My favourite is and always will be Razorblade Romance. Great interview. Never dull and always insightful when you let him talk. Brilliant.
I love the fact that he really involved in the creative part as a type designer! Im a graphic designer so I’m really proud of him 😊 I’ll get the heartagram tattooed soon in chrome style to represent the love metal ❤️🔥
I also wanted to say I met Ville Valo for the 2nd time last year (in Chicago) before that i met him 2013 😊 sadly i didnt get to talk to him long or ask him my music related questions :( I hope one day soon i can. Also i really like the fact Ville likes Lana Del Rey's music. My name is Brittney
I must say I cannot agree that the Neon Noir is a beautiful album just because the previous HIM albums were shit albums, especially the last two are my favourite ones. They just echo different, but in a very good way 🖤🖤🖤
Really enjoyed this! I quite liked the interviewer's relaxed vibe, felt more like a casual conversation rather than a typical interview. It was nice to hear Ville's thoughts on some modern artists too, as he often talks more about the older ones, for obvious reasons 😊
