    I first heard HIM 22 years ago when I was 13 and I first saw them live 20 years ago. As I grew older I always kept an interest in what VV was up too but work and kids and life in general got in the way. When I heard he was making a solo album and touring I started listening again. Me and my buddy saw him live in London this past week and since then I’ve been devouring as much material from VV as possible. This ‘interview’ which felt much more like a conversation was beautiful! My favourite so far and I’m so pleased to be listening to his work again and feeling like my old teenage self again. Thank you.

    Finally found a flaw in Ville Valo - he doesn't get The Beatles)
    Kudos for Suede and Type O though
    For those who like Type O suggest to read the book 'Soul on fire' about Peter Steele - it's very good, feeling like you knew the man after you read it. He was truly a nice and deep human being.
