HIM have always been a very guilty pleasure of mine, though I really thought they fell off on their last album, Screamworks. So far, the two tracks I've heard off of their forthcoming record - "All Lips Go Blue" and the title track, "Tears on Tape," - have fared better.
And today, HIM dropped the official video for the latter. Ville Valo is finally showing his age, but is still more rock star than anyone born in the past 30 years.
