Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka hui HIM ma 1991 ma Finland. ʻO kona inoa kumu ʻo His Infernal Majesty. I ka hoʻomaka ʻana, ʻekolu mau mea hoʻokani pila i ka hui: Ville Valo, Mikko Lindström a me Mikko Paananen.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ka hoʻopaʻa mele mua o ka hui i ka makahiki 1992 me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ka demo track Witches and Other Night Fears.
I kēia manawa, aia wale nō ke kope o kēia mele i ke alakaʻi o ka hui Finnish. ʻEkolu mau makahiki ma hope o kona hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana, ua haʻalele ʻo Paananen i ka hui HIM. Ua kāhea ʻia ʻo ia e lawelawe ma ka Pūʻali Koa.

Ma ka makahiki 1996, hui hou ka hui, a laila hana nā kāne i kahi album hou, 666 Ways to Love: Prologue. I ka manawa like, ua pōkole ka inoa kumu o ka hui i ka lehulehu HIM.
ʻO ke ala o ka hui HIM i ke kaulana
The first record Greatest Love songs Vol. Ua hoʻokomo ʻia ʻo 666 i ka hopena o 1997. ʻO ka trio mau loa o ka hui, aia i loko mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hana ʻana o ka hui, i komo i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana.
ʻO Rantala lāua ʻo Melasniemi, ka mea nāna i hoʻokani i ke ʻano o ka mea hoʻokani pahu a me ka mea keyboardist. I ka manawa like, ua hoʻomohala ka hui i kahi ʻano ʻike ʻia, ʻo ia hoʻi ka hoʻokele a me ke kani melodic.
I loko o nā mele hiki iā ʻoe ke lohe i ke ʻano o ke aloha a me ka make. Album Aloha nui mele Vol. ʻO 666 wale nō ka haku mele huna.
Ma hope o nā mele 9 mua, ua loaʻa he 56 mau mele ʻaʻohe leo hoʻokani. ʻO ka moʻolelo hope wale nō i loaʻa kahi ʻokiʻoki mai ka mini-album mua o ka hui.
No laila, hiki i ka hui ke hōʻoia i ka noho ʻana o nā mele āpau i 666 MB ma ka disk. ʻO kēia ka mea i alakaʻi ai i ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana iā Satanism.
Ua loaʻa i ka album mua o ka hui ke kaulana kaulana ma ʻEulopa, akā ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka hauʻoli i hana ʻia ma ka ʻāina hānau o nā mea pena.
I ka hapa lua o ka makahiki 1999, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kekahi disc, ʻo Razorblade Romance. I ka wā i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai, ua hoʻololi ʻia ʻo Melasniemi e Jussi Salminen, aʻo Rantala i pani ʻia e Karppinen, ka mea i noho ma ka hui a hiki i ka hopena o 2015.
I ka wā i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ai ka brainchild studio o Razorblade Romance ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, ua ʻike ʻia aia kahi hui me kēlā inoa.
No kēia kumu, ma ʻAmelika, ua ʻike mua ʻia ka hui ʻo HER, akā ua kūʻai koke ʻia nā kuleana o ka inoa.
I kēia manawa, mahalo nui ʻia nā kope mua me ka inoa HER ma waena o nā mea pā. ʻO ka moʻolelo ʻo Razorblade Romance aia ma luna o nā palapala kiʻi ma Finland no ʻehiku mahina lōʻihi.
I ka makahiki 2004, ua ʻike ʻia ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā mīkini pahu, ʻo ia ka hopena o ka "fans" i manaʻo ai i kēlā manawa ʻaʻohe mea pahu pahu i ka hui.
Hoʻololi laina laina
I ka makahiki 2001, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ke kolu o ka disc Deep Shadows a me Brilliant Highlights. ʻAʻole me ka hoʻololi hou ʻana - ua hele mai ʻo Puurtinen e pani iā Salminen.
Ma hope o kēlā, ua hoʻopau ʻia ka haku ʻana o ka hui HIM. Aia kekahi mau hoʻololi i ke ʻano o nā haku mele, ʻaʻole makemake nā "fans" āpau.
Eia nō naʻe, ua kaulana loa ka album ma ka ʻāina hānau o nā mea hoʻokani mele, kahi i noho ai ma ke kūlana 1 o ka pakuhi aupuni no ʻelua mau mahina.
I ka manawa like, ua komo nā lālā o ka hui i kahi papahana mele kaulana ʻole. ʻO ka album aʻe e kali hou i ʻelua makahiki.
ʻO Ville Valo, ʻo ia ka maka o ka hui, ʻaʻole ia ma kona uhi. Mahalo i ka hoʻolaha ʻana o nā kiʻi wikiō ma MTV, ua kaulana ka hui ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa.
Aia ka moʻolelo ma ke kūlana 1 o ka pakuhi Finnish no kahi kokoke i 5 mau mahina. ʻO ka hopena, ua hoʻokumu nā kāne i kahi hōʻiliʻili o nā mele maikaʻi loa e pili ana i nā hopena o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o nā album ʻehā.
Ma ka waena o 2005, ua komo ka hui HIM i ka hoʻolauleʻa Download, kahi i hana ai lākou me nā hui kaulana ʻē aʻe o ka honua. Ma hope iki mai, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka album studio ʻelima o ka hui ʻo Dark Light, i hoʻopau ʻia ma Billboard.
Ma hope o kēlā, aia ka hui i kahi kūlana hou o ka kaulana. Ma ka home, ua aloha ʻia ka diski me nā loiloi aloha.
I nā makahiki ʻelua e hiki mai ana, ua hoʻokuʻu ka hui i 2 mini-collections o nā mele: Uneasy Listening Vol. 1 a me Uneasy Listening Vol. 2, a hoʻolaha i kahi album hou, ʻo Venus Doom, i manaʻo ʻia ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī ma mua o nā hana i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ma mua.
Nā hana pūʻulu o ka lā
Ua hōʻike ʻia ka album Venus Doom i ka lehulehu i ka hāʻule o 2007. ʻO ka album literally "blew up" i ka hui o nā "fans" of rock, e lawe ana i ka 12th kūlana ma ka helu Billboard 200. I kēia manawa, ma Finland, ua hoʻokipa maikaʻi ʻia ka hana.
Ma hope o 2 mau makahiki, ua hoʻolaha ka hui i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ka album Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice (Mokuna 1 a 13), i hoʻokuʻu wale ʻia i ka hoʻoilo o 2010.
ʻAʻole lākou i ʻike hou iā ia i ka hopena ma mua. ʻOiai ma ka ʻāina hānau o ka poʻe mele, ʻaʻole hiki i kā lākou moʻolelo ke lawe i ke kūlana 1 ma ka pakuhi.
A laila aia kahi manawa mālie a HIM e hoʻololi i nā lepili. ʻO ka album aʻe, ʻo Tears on Tape, i ʻike ʻia i ka waena waena o 2013, a ma hope iho ua hoʻomaka e poina ka hui.
Ua hana ʻia e ke alakaʻi o ka hui ʻo Ville Valo ma o kahi ʻaoʻao ma kekahi o nā ʻoihana pūnaewele. Wahi a ka kikokikona o kāna ʻōlelo, ua hana ka hui i nā mea āpau i kona mana e hoʻomohala i nā mele rock.
ʻO ka manawa kēia e "hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ke ala" no nā manaʻo a me nā ʻike hou. A laila, haʻi aku ka mea hoʻokani pila i ka "fans", mahalo i ke kākoʻo no ka manawa lōʻihi.
