HIM - Resurrection (Video Clip HD) HIM Slippery When Dead Album - (VV) Ville Valo

Band: HIM Song: Resurrection (Demo Version 1998) Album: Slippery When Dead Year: 1998 Label: No label Slippery When Dead: Original 1998 demo album that later became “Razorblade Romance“. All songs on this album are different than the re-recorded final versions appearing on the “Razorblade Romance“ album. A drum machine was used temporarily due to Pätkä leaving the band. The only known song that was not included on the “Razorblade Romance“ album is “Too Happy To Be Alive“. The original working title of the “Razorblade Romance“ album was “Slippery When Dead“ a play on the record title of “Slippery When Wet“ by Bon Jovi. The recording sessions for what came to be the album started around mid-1998. The band had wanted to record in a residential studio and the first that came to mind was Rockfield Studios in Wales, England, but they were permanent in their choice after learning the history behind who else recorded in the place as well. “We had made up our minds that we wanted to record in a residential studio and the first place that sprung to mind was Rockfield Studios in Wales. We had the chance to check it out and when we saw the list of artists who had used the studio we were amazed. Not only that but Black Sabbath had been rehearsing there for their come back tour at the time so to sing in the same vocal booth as Ozzy was something very spiritually uplifting.“ - Ville Valo - One early song known from the many sessions is called “Too Happy to Be Alive.“ The song features a drum machine in place of a live drummer due to Pätkä’s departure. The lyrics and the sound of the song itself seem in-between the transition of Greatest Lovesongs Vol. 666 and Razorblade Romance leaning more towards the first. Lyrics from this particular recording were eventually re-heard in the lyrics of “Death is in Love With Us“, which was originally titled “666 Medley“ and also “666 Revisited.“ “I Love You“, had been originally brought up to be included on this album after being scrapped on the one prior. “Join Me in Death“ which existed early on from January 1998 and “Razorblade Kiss“ were originally written during the same time period and featured a great contrast to the eventually released products. “Razorblade Kiss“ - originally titled as the same name as the album - kept the same verses with slight lyrical changes, but the chorus was different. “Join Me in Death“ had a few of the same verses that later were on the final mixes but one take at the time had a verse after the guitar solo that did not make the final cut of the song. “I Love You“ contains the same lyrics that made the final cut. Oddly enough a lot of the parts on this album were recorded naked. Tracklist Slippery When Dead demo: 1. Too Happy to Be Alive 2. Gone With The Sin 3. Bury Me Deep Inside Your Heart 4.

I Love You (Live at Sinkkasten, Frankfurt 1998) HIM Álbum: Slippery When Dead Razorblade Romance Demos Año: 1998 Sin discográfica Slippery When Dead: Álbum de demostración original de 1998 que luego se convirtió en “Razorblade Romance“. Todas las canciones de este álbum son diferentes a las versiones finales que aparecen en el álbum “Razorblade Romance“. Se usó una caja de ritmos temporalmente debido a que Pätkä dejó la banda. La única canción que no se incluyó en el álbum “Razorblade Romance“ es “Too Happy To Be Alive“. El título provisional original del álbum “Razorblade Romance“ era “Slippery When Dead“, una obra sobre el título del disco “Slippery When Wet“ de Bon Jovi. Las sesiones de grabación de lo que llegó a ser el álbum comenzaron a mediados de 1998. La banda quiso grabar en un estudio residencial y lo primero que se les ocurrió fue Rockfield Studios en Gales, Inglaterra, pero fueron permanentes en su elección después de conocer la historia que había detrás de quién más grababa en ese lugar. “Habíamos decidido que queríamos grabar en un estudio residencial y el primer lugar que se me ocurrió fue Rockfield Studios en Gales. Tuvimos la oportunidad de comprobarlo y cuando vimos la lista de artistas que habían utilizado el estudio nos sorprendió. No solo eso, sino que Black Sabbath había estado ensayando allí para su gira de regreso en ese momento, así que cantar en la misma cabina vocal que Ozzy fue algo espiritualmente edificante“. - Ville Valo - #HIM #VilleValo #VV #LoveMetal #EncarniDGLoveMetal #RazorbladeRomance #HisInfernalMajesty HEARTAGRAM (Official VV = Ville Valo): YouTube Channel Heartagram: @heartagram Heartagram Website: Instagram Official: Facebook Official: HIM: HIM Youtube Official: HIM · VV · Ville Valo: @vvvillevalohimvideoshd90 If this video generates any economic income, I would like its benefits to be for the artist and all the owners of their rights.
