VILLE VALO
(The interviews for this article were conducted in January 2006.)
It’s hard to say what my first own memory is because everyone hears stories about their childhood from their parents.
I do, however, have one genuine rock ‘n’ roll-related early memory. We were visiting family friends whose son was a fan of Iron Maiden. I opened the door to his room, and in the dark room there was a gigantic Eddie the Head that was staring at me! Because I was three or four, I got incredibly scared. It took many years before I had the courage to talk to that guy. Later on I did however become I big fan of Maiden.
My dad is good at drawing caricatures and cartoon-like things. But when he went to school in the 1950s, you had to draw a barn that looked like a barn, like the ones in Juhani Palmu’s paintings, so he quit drawing—especially since some artist that visited his school had completely dissed his work. But he kept his love for comics, and he acquainted me at a very young age with Mandrake the Magician, The Phantom and his other favorites. My dad carried home comics from second-hand bookstores, and I liked La Belette by Comès and Inspector Canardo. I also have all those big books from the Minä Aku Ankka [I, Donald Duck] series by Carl Barks.
I have always liked drawing myself, and that saved me in elementary school. Since I had trouble concentrating, I was given special permission to draw during classes. Otherwise I wouldn’t have staid still. When I was on first grade, I was even taken to the doctor’s for an EEG, but that didn't work out. I should have kept my eyes closed without blinking during the examination. That wasn’t going to happen.
I wasn’t interested in school at all, and I have later thought that the essential function of school is to help people form social networks. You meet different kinds of people there and learn your own place. There you find out for whom the door is opened and for whom it isn’t. These things are for me more important than something like learning to spell by syllables. Spelling by syllables is after all a technical detail. Learning to do that doesn’t guarantee that later in life you will ever read a good book or write a good letter.
Many of my childhood friends moved away at some point, and now my oldest friends are Mige and Linde. Mige I met when I was nine years old and Linde, if I recall correctly, when I was ten. In all relationships there are cooler periods so I don’t know if a long friendship is a strength in itself, but it’s of course more fun to tour the world when you have good friends around you... It’s true that when it comes to the band stuff, Mige and I are thick as thieves.
As a kid I liked being indoors as much as outdoors. I had a friend with whom we built all kinds of stuff with Meccano, but I also loved riding my bike and skateboarding. Before those, I even tried playing soccer. There’s a sad story about that. I was trying out for a team called Gnistan, so my mom and dad dropped me off at their practice in the nearby neighborhood of Paloheinä. When they came to pick me up, they found me up in a tree and some boy with a bloody face crying under it. I had gotten pissed off because the dude had taken my ball. And so I had punched him in the face. This is not what you’re supposed to do in soccer. My parents figured that team sports weren’t really my thing. So I moved on to judo.
I also loved cross-country skiing – after a few gym teachers had first given me a kick in the ass and taught me the technique. I grew up in Oulunkylä where you had good tracks. I learned to swim a bit late because when I was little, I had over twenty ear infections and because of that I had tubes in my ears. On top of that, I’m allergic to chlorine so I didn’t make any trips to the swimming hall. My parents didn’t have the possibility to get us a place in the country either so I didn’t really have opportunities to practice. Later on, I did go to the Kumpula outdoor swimming pool almost every day in the summer.
Water as an element is dear to me. Nowadays I’m tempted to go diving for example in the clear waters of Asia. Especially since I have always been morbidly interested in octopuses.
When I was six, I got this great hobby called asthma. My symptoms started around the time of the death of our dog Sami, saved three years earlier from a gutter. In addition to Sami, we had all sorts of animals at home: a parrot, a turtle, fish and god knows what.
***
When I was seven or eight, I started playing the bass, inspired by Gene Simmons and Steve Harris. My choice was also influenced by the fact that I was in a music class and bass players had the most opportunities for playing. I did also play the drums for a while when I was 11 and 12. As a drummer I’m really shitty, as you can tell from the Daniel Lioneye album. I even took a few lessons, but those ended when my teacher got caught for molesting underage girls. After that incident, drummers have always been something of a curse word for me.
I didn’t pull any heavy pranks. Oulunkylä was such a small place that you always got caught right away. But I did go to construction sites as well as the machine room at the mall. We were once taken into a police car from there but not further. I was maybe eight.
I was never an avid reader, even though we did have a lot of books at home. I did read the Narnia books and Greenwitch. And The Hobbit. The Three Investigators books were good as well as Agatha Christie books, which I read later on. The first movies I really dug were Pojat [The Boys] and Star Wars. When those action figures hit the stores, Star Wars was shown non-stop at the… Sokos department store, I think. We were like a group of twenty boys who hung there watching the movie. Pojat, on the other hand, has that really heavy ending. Vesa-Matti Loiri runs after the train and yells “Mom, Mom, don’t leave me.” I had nightmares and made my own mother swear that she would never go away.
I must have been on fifth grade when we had a band called Elovena Cowboys. I made my first song for that band, it was a mood piece in the vein of (Iron Maiden’s) Rime of the Ancient Mariner. For a band called Aurora, I made a Nirvana-inspired piece called Sieluttomat [The Soulless] back in 1991. That was my first so-called composition. The lyrics were written by someone else in the band. I had plenty of bands in those days: Donits-Osmo Experience, B.L.O.O.D. and others. I got interested in singing when I got into what Mike Patton, King Diamond and Ozzy Osbourne were doing.
I experimented with alcohol for the first time when I was on seventh or eighth grade. A pretty average experience. A bottle of red wine and a few beers. There I lay on a playground in Oulunkylä. We went to some HC gigs at Lepakko where I got to practice some more. Cheap white wine and Koskenkorva. I even threw up on an early crush while we were making out.
School went nicely even with everything else going on. I think my average grade fell below 8 only once. [In Finnish comprehensive schools, the grading scale is from 4 to 10. Report cards, which include the average grade, are handed out twice a year.] My favorite subject was math. I still find it really interesting, a form of art really. I didn’t graduate high school, and I moved on my own when I was seventeen.
The first time when my own music really stirred up emotions was when I composed the theme for When Love and Death Embrace on Mige’s brother’s old organ. But that was later, only in 1996. In the meanwhile, I had also tried out to play bass in Jimsonweed. HIM already existed back then, but it was on a hiatus because of Mige’s military service. HIM’s – or actually His Infernal Majesty’s – first gig was at Teatro on December 19, 1995 (which is Mige’s birthday) opening for Kauko Röyhkä. We used to hang out a lot at Teatro because Mige’s brother was one of the owners. Mige and Pätkä (HIM’s first drummer Juhana Rantala) even worked there. There were these Suolirassi nights and all. Those were the days.
On this spring day in 1996, I was in the bathtub at home when the phone rang. A voice on the other end said: “This is Asko Kallonen from BMG.” I thought it was a prank call but the guy convinced me. We had been sending our demos here and there but nobody had been interested. Asko was interested. And that’s how it began. That summer we recorded our first EP (666 Ways to Love: Prologue) at the Munkkiniemi youth center. It was recorded by Hiili (Kai Hiilesmaa) because he had already been recording our demos.
I didn’t necessarily want the role of the organizer but it kind of fell on me naturally. Linde has always been really quiet and Mige too psychedelic. Pätkä for his part had an aversion towards the record company stuff dating back to his time in Slumgudgeon. Our first big gig outside of Helsinki was at the Music & Media event in Tampere in the fall of 1997. We played at I-Klubi.
***
The first big thing that happened outside of Finland took place in early 2000 when we were suddenly number one in the German charts. An important factor in that stuff has of course been Seppo (Vesterinen, HIM’s manager). I met him when our debut album was about to be released in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Our booking agent Tiina Vuorinen had worked with Seppo already during the days of Hanoi Rocks, and we needed help with the foreign contracts.
HIM’s biggest crisis was caused by Deep Shadows and Brilliant Highlights (2001). We almost met the fate of so many others. Meaning that when a record becomes a huge commercial success, you start making the next one with the wrong attitude. But writing a song is not like riding a bike. Through that album we learned all sorts of things. Also how to deal with harsh criticism.
When we were making Love Metal (2003), I got to know Stefan (Lindfors, designer). His name came up when we were planning the video – or film as Steffe always says – for Funeral of Hearts. And then we went to freeze our asses off in Lapland. The thing I love about Stefan is that you can ask him anything and he doesn’t get mad. It’s also great that we can dig each other’s work without any kind of competitiveness. Fortunately creative madmen like him still exist.
I still have an excellent relationship with my mom and dad, as well as with my little brother. They don’t try to give me advice, for which they deserve a thank you. Same thing at home: it would be useless for a lady to try to influence a band that has been together as long as we have. At the same time, I have to say that having a job that requires this much traveling, it’s wonderful to have a place to come home to. And like light a fire in the fireplace together. A home is a home only when there’s someone there. At times Jonna (Nygren, Ville’s [then] fiancée) and I of course fight like cats and dogs, but I guess that’s the way it always is with creative young people. This job has pretty much done away with the urge to travel. Nowadays, the place I prefer to travel to is home. It feels nice, even exotic, to just look around the shops for a nice bookshelf or a rug.
Now that things are starting to happen in the US, we’ve also been contacted by sponsors. Besides instrument sponsors, we don’t have anyone’s logo in our asses. Mige and Linde have a discount deal with Gibson. A company that big can’t start giving away their instruments for free. I have also been playing Gibsons for a long time and collected them along the way. It would be wonderful to be able to design my own acoustic model for them.
Once we had a non-music-related sponsor: Jägermeister on a German tour in… 2003 or 2004. There was so much fuss about the company’s visibility on stage and the whole shit left such a bad taste in our mouths that we decided it was the only time we would whore like that. We’ll pay for the printing of our posters ourselves and pay for our own booze. There’s nothing wrong with Jägermeister, but the ad agency for that project hadn’t been working in music business. Oh yes, and a clothing company that sponsors Bam (Margera, professional skateboarder) gave us shoes this one time in the US.
There was a rumor circulating here in Finland once that we had a cigarette sponsor. In reality, someone we knew worked for BAT. He gave us a couple of cartons of expired Lucky Strikes. (laughs) That was it. Besides, we all smoke different brands, so we could never agree on something like that. I have bought every pack of cigarettes myself, meaning that the eventual lung cancer has been paid for by me! There were three reasons why I agreed to do that Coca-Cola can campaign. For once I had the time to get involved in a charity thing, Mige’s only addiction is Coca-Cola and it was exciting to design a bathroom-sign-style heartagram couple [see picture below]. That particular company has never financially supported HIM.
In the past few years, gossip magazines have also gotten interested in what I do. I have a good relationship with them. I don’t give interviews, but I also don’t go ballistic over the things they write. Hey—the more gossip there is about an artist the better. I don’t want to clip the wings of one single rumor.
A public image is always different from reality. Meeting people like Ozzy, Slash, Iggy Pop and others, I have noticed that the one raising hell on stage is an alter ego. Off stage these people are polite gentlemen. I have therefore come to the conclusion that if you want a long career in rock, you can’t let the piss go to your head.
Timeline of Ville’s life:
1976: I was born on November 22, 1976, in Helsinki.
1983: My first trauma. I thought my mother was the devil. She had gotten a perm because she wanted to renew herself after the birth of my little brother.
1985: A string broke from the guitar my cousin Mika had given me. I thought the whole thing was beyond repair, and I smashed it to a million pieces in the spirit of Paul Stanley.
1995: My first moment of “rock‘n’roll debauchery”. The cellist Max (Lilja) from Apocalyptica got anally abused by a smoking pipe cleaner at a joint gig.
1996: In honor of my 20th birthday, while hung over, I came up with both HIM’s logo, the heartagram, and the term “love metal”.
2000: Making of Razorblade Romance in Wales and London with John Fryer. The first time I worked with a foreign producer.
2000: In a state of intoxication, I tried to walk on the railing of a German balcony. Too much stress. Pretty good from a guy whose only phobia is the fear of heights. Linde saved me.
2004: Recording Dark Light in Los Angeles with Tim Palmer. It was great to sonically rape an old nunnery. In the presence of Playboy bunnies. The end of a chapter.
Influences:
Tapio Rautavaara
Sininen Uni, based on a text by P. Mustapää and one of the rare songs that Rautavaara composed himself, is the most beautiful song in the world. All in all, Rautavaara is almost everything that a Finnish man can be. Athletic but at the same time artistic and sensitive. He also remained a man of the people, did a hell of a lot of work and died under suspicious circumstances.
Timo K. Mukka
Mukka has been terribly important to me, not only because of his art but also as a character. He represents the more extreme side of Finnish melancholy and the courage to reveal his deepest emotions – no matter how obscene or coarse they are. If a Dr. Frankenstein were to combine Rautavaara and Mukka, the result would pretty much be a perfect Finn: a muscular madman.
Kalervo Palsa
Kalervo Palsa is in many ways similar to Mukka. I didn’t get to see that big exhibition of his here in Helsinki and I’m a little annoyed by that. I don’t really have any connections to the art world, but I did put some hooks in the water in the hopes of being able to buy some of his original works. I have a hunch that they’re not necessarily super-expensive.

L'Helldone è praticamente la mecca di tutti i fan degli HIM.
Si svolge nel mese di dicembre nel club più antico e famoso di Helsinki (e di tutta la Finlandia), il Tavastia Klubi (in italiano Club Fortezza).
Gli HIM hanno suonato numerose volte al Tavastia durante l'ultimo dell'anno, anche nei primi anni 90. Nel 2005 è stato coniato il termine l'Helldone, ed è diventato il più grande appuntamento per tutti i fans della musica finlandese. Sì, perché a questo appuntamento non soltanto è possibile ascoltare il Love Metal degli HIM, ma anche il Goth n Roll dei The 69 Eyes, Apocalyptica, Vanity Beach, Negative e molti altri ancora!
Nel 2010 e nel 2011 l'Helldone festival si è preso una meritata pausa, ma quest'anno, secondo l'annuncio ufficiale fatto da Ville Valo in persona, gli HIM si esibiranno per ben 4 notti ed è probabile che non tutte le 4 date siano all'Helldone, ma ad altre location come ad esempio il Nosturi: www.elmu.fi/ .
Sito ufficiale Helldone: www.myspace.com/helldone
Sito ufficiale Tavastia Klubi: www.tavastiaklubi.fi/
Le date non sono ancora state ufficializzate, ma confidiamo che i concerti si svolgeranno intorno al 26-31 dicembre. Resta soltanto da aspettare.
Hotel
Per i pernottamenti l'unico ostello/albergo che ho provato è l'Eurohostel: un ostello vicino al centro, con sauna, ristorante, ma con prezzi davvero alla portata di tutti (forse i più bassi di Helsinki)! www.eurohostel.eu/
Voli
Per i voli c'è da fare ovviamente una distinzione:
RyanAir
Tutte le altre compagnie aeree
Per chi sceglie RyanAir deve però sapere che dovrà fare scalo a Londra Stansted, per poi prendere da lì un'altro volo per Tampere, arrivato a Tampere c'è da prendere la navetta (6 euro) che porta alla stazione, e poi dalla stazione prendere il treno per Hellsinki.
Per chi sceglie Finnair o altre compagnie non low-low cost la questione è molto più semplice, quindi se non volete sbattervi tra stazioni ferroviare, navette e scali... Conviene pagare un pò di più e viaggiare con Finnair...
Ecco uno screenshot del 4 settembre per i voli offerti da Finnair per la tratta ROMA-HELSINKI VANTAA (andata/ritorno) :
Questo topic verrà aggiornato con più informazioni giorno dopo giorno, se conoscete persone che sono state a Helsinki, oppure se proprio voi siete stati a Helsinki non esitate a postare i vostri suggerimenti/idee che contribuiranno ad arricchire questa discussione!

Is Sandra the Screamworks Saint Scream?
We received tons of tweets after the "infamous" photos of Sandra began to circulate on the net. And one of the most common questions was:
"Is this girl the same of the Screamworks cover, is she the mysterious Saint Scream, the muse, like Ville said, of Screamworks: Love In Theory and Practice Chapters 1-13?"
So, today we want to satisfy you by removing all the doubts behind that, but we have to start from the past.
During the first access over of the media (Metal Hammer) into Ville's house, we had the privilege to see some of Ville's furnishings... One of the most interesting piece of art was this one:
Ville bought from germany (on eBay) a nun sculpture, after he named her Hilda (or something else), but this is not a normal sculpture. It was an important inspiration, because he was inspired by one specifical religious-inspired track contained in Screamworks.
After, I believe that he morphed the original face of the sculpture with the face of this mysterious muse for making the final Screamworks cover art, because the original face looked much more like Mussolini, isn't it? Ville said on Metal Hammer that he only "fucked around" with photoshop for making this one, but it was surely a thought job for him.
We tried to overlap Sandra's face to the Screamworks cover (let's call her Hilda) and this is the result:
So we can actually say that the Screamworks cover is a bit different, but what do you think about that? Please join the conversation by posting a comment down here!

Ville Valo ITW on Being Voted the Hottest Dude in Hard Rock and Metal (November 2011) - Interviews From 2011.
On October 21, Revolver posted a reader’s poll right here on our website, RevolverMag.com, asking you to vote for who is the single Hottest Dude in Hard Rock or Metal, inspired by fan requests for more coverage of “Hot Dudes” to complement our annual Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock issue. The response blew our minds: Over 100 musician names were written onto the ballot by the fans (on top of the 16 we had nominated to kick things off), and more than 400,000 votes have been cast. Perhaps most impressive, though, some 150,000 of those votes went to Ville Valo, the frontman of Finnish “love metal” outfit HIM. Valo and his band have been largely radio silent for the last year, except for news that HIM had parted with record label, Sire/Warner, in March, and then, in September, that they were working on the follow-up to their last record, 2010’s Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice. Considering his big win, however, we decided that we had to track Valo down and drag him, at least temporarily, out of his fortress of solitude for a comment. And fortunately for us, the always-charming musician didn’t put up too much resistance.
REVOLVER So you’ve won our Hottest Dude in Hard Rock and Metal readers’ poll by an astounding margin…
VILLE VALO Does this mean I could be the cause for the arctic melting away? [Laughs] Well, you know, we haven’t been touring. So I think in this day of oversaturation, through the internet and all that, we’re able to maintain a bit of the mythical old-school rock-and-roll aspect, because we’re so very far away.
But we’ve had some problems with Gas [Lipstick, HIM’s drummer]. Gas has had some medical problems. He’s got nerve damage, they found out. A condition similar to shin splints, but in his arms, both of his arms. It came to light about three months ago. We haven’t been able to do anything since that.
You never know, us, lonely fellows, you know, touring in the lonely tour buses… It might be that it’s not just music related. Our wrists are fucked. It’s been a tad confusing but it’s not negative all around. We’ve had good sit-downs. We sat down, like, in the wee hours of the morning [a few nights ago] just to discuss what we’re gonna do, and, because it seems that the first time he’s able to really give it a go is in December, we’ve just got to wait.
But basically what happened to Gas’ arm is, I was saying, “I need to be the hottest!” and he said “Sure, I’ll try my best.” And he gave me a call that “I’ve got some nerve damage because of your hotness.” So that’s what happened, I guess.
It seems that to many people you are an exotic creature.
Yeah, as in dangerous species. People are hunting us down, even here. That’s the reason why I live in a tower. Shotguns go off in the middle of the night and silver pieces fly about. Gotta be careful here. [Laughs] But I’m still a big believer in all that stuff. There’s ways of doing it. Obviously you’ve gotta do what you love. You’ve gotta do it as well as you can. And that dictates how it’s gonna be, how it’s gonna look, that sort of thing. You know, if you’re talking about the temperature of a rocker—level of heat—you know, I think that it’s incredibly hot, this person, like, Robb Flynn—not sexually—but Robb Flynn from Machine Head, he’s like…he’s just going for it. And he’s just doing what he does and he’s on level with fans when he’s playing. He’s got a really, really cool vibe. And then, if you’re comparing penis sizes, you should always be looking somewhere else besides Scandinavia, you know. The cold winters don’t…you know, it’s one of those things. But then that’s when it comes really handy to mix up inches and centimeters. That’s how we won the war. [Laughs] I’m getting hysterical here.
Any beauty regimens that have kept you on the hot list over the years?
[Laughs] Oh lord, you get desperate there. I’m sorry if I’m not really informative enough. Well, you know, reading about Jack the Ripper’s knife, maybe that could be a good one to do some shaving with later on. But I think a good beauty tip is to think of good thoughts every day. It starts from within. Not necessarily positivity, but a bit of, kind of, how would I put it? Acceptance and understanding, if possible at all. If not understanding, then discussing and bringing forth what it is you’re not understanding and trying to figure it out. Because if you let those continuous loops of thoughts revolve around your head, that will make you old, that will make you ugly as well, that will wear you out, from within. We know how it can be. Everybody has went through that stuff. But as opposed to saying some acne whatever gel is better than the other, I’m saying that it all starts from within.
Is it embarrassing to be asked about this kind of stuff?
Embarrassing, well, you know…embarrassment factors very, very… You can’t take it out, you can’t take it out from man or the industry or what we are. I think it’s fun, and I think it’s really fun since I am this odd descendent of some random Berserker Vikings here in the middle of behind God’s back somewhere next to Russia, in the utter darkness, strumming an acoustic and singing about forlorn love and pretending to be Baudelaire or whatever. It’s just… I think all those things in context just makes it hilarious. So I’m really happy to be a part of the whole game or the whole rock-and-roll circus. I’m really honored that, you know, by all the goods and the bads, I’ve learnt a lot and, you know, met a lot of beautiful people around the world and learnt these tips of getting rid of the inner acne.

She's already conquered the tattoo, reality show and cosmetics worlds. Now, celeb tattoo artist Kat Von D is recording her first album. Von D has great taste in music – she is a fan of bands like Fireball Ministry, H.I.M. and Mötley Crüe - so we wonder if she's going to be able to translate that love into quality tunes of her own.
Von D, who recently split with fiancée Jesse James for the second time this summer, told E! Online that the album will be full of "dark" and "romantic" songs. Would you expect anything less? Perhaps her musical buddies, like Ville Valo can offer an assist?
The reality TV star also thinks that she has a longer shelf life than many of her reality show peers, given the fact that she loves music so fervently. "I've been passionate about music all my life," she said. But passion aside, she also has experience. She revealed. "I've been playing classical piano since I was six, so I understand the form. It will be fun to be able to translate a message."

Una notizia divertente, Ville è stato visto al concerto dei fratelli Cavanagh al Tavastia.
La cosa divertente è che Ville è venuto frettolosamente alla fine del concerto... con una bici!
Purtroppo per adesso non ci sono foto del leader degli HIM, ma soltanto della bicicletta!
Grazie mille a Fuggita a Helsinki una utentessa di HIMI, che si trova a Helsinki per motivi di studio, e che è riuscita a fare questa magnifica scoperta!

A funny story, Ville was seen at the concert of the brothers Cavanagh at Tavastia.
The funny thing is that Ville came in haste at the end of the concert ... with a bicicle!
Unfortunately, at the moment there are no pictures of the leader of HIM, but only his bike!
Thanks to Fuggita a Helsinki, an user of HIMI, which is located in Helsinki for study, and has managed to make this wonderful discovery! -
