Product Description

Chronique amazon.fr

Beaucoup de ballades et de mélodies sombres et douces dans ce nouvel album de Him qui semble plus que jamais calibré pour séduire les jeunes filles, en pâmoison, est-il besoin de le préciser ? Dans une harmonie de pop, de goth et ce qu'il faut de metal, le groupe crée une atmosphère romantique et inquiétante à la fois, caractéristique des ambiances gothiques. Dans la lignée de son prédécesseur, Razorblade Romance, ce dernier opus est sans doute moins marquant, mais tout aussi agréable. --Juliette Legouy

Album Description

Full Title - Deep Shadows & Brilliant Highlights. 2002 album from His Infernal Majesty features 11 tracks including a multimedia section containing a CD-ROM video of the track 'Pretending'. RCA.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hardcore Fans ONLY..., Mar 18 2004
I remember my first HIM CD..."Razorblade Romance". Great, great CD that was, and still is. I just had to get the rest of their stuff. I ordered "Love Metal", which is now my favorite, then "Greatest Love Songs v. 666", which is my second favorite ("Razorblade Romance" is my third favorite). And I was ultimately with this album. I got into HIM about a year ago from watching the CKY videos, but not just because Bam likes them. I'm not a little skater punk Bam wannabe like so many 'fans' of HIM are. I think it was a very bad decision on HIM's part to let the skater a*shole known as Bam Margera to let him use their music so much, because now most of their fans are pathetic little wannabes who do everything Bam does and listen to everything Bam does. I myself like HIM and CKY (the band), but I would never wear are CKY hat and a HIM shirt together at the same time because it looks like I'm a wannabe. I don't wear anything with a heartagram on it, because Bam's overused it so much people actually think it is HIS symbol. BUT ANYWAY...

As I was saying...I was very disappointed with this album. The tracks are, for the most part, dull. A few standouts, like "Heartache Every Moment" and "Loose You Tonight", but those are really the only two memorable songs. The rest sound so much alike it's hard to tell when the track changes. The lyrics aren't as good as Ville's are on other albums, nor is the overall musicianship. If you want HIM's best musicianship, I suggest you check out "Love Metal".

So, if you want to get into HIM (because you actually like them, not just because Bam likes them), this should definetly be your last pick. Start with "Razorblade Romance" because they actually sell it here in the US and it's the second most basic and acessible (this is the first, but nowhere near as good), then get the fantastic "Love Metal". Peace.

And Bam wannabes, go ahead and mark this with a non-helpful vote. You'll realize how pathetic your obsession is in time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ville Valo, Please Don't Let It Go!, July 8 2004
By 
Rens Simons (Sprang-Capelle, the Netherlands) - See all my reviews
Once again, Ville Valo and his fantastic band have amazed me with their musical craftsmanship. Their third album sounds great! Songs such as Heartache Every Moment, Pretending and Please Don't Let It Go really manage to touch me and leave a lasting impression.

Very clear on this album is Ville's voice, which really seems to evolve with every new album he produces. He manages to put into his songs a level of emotion that few can match. His own subgenre, love metal, is still very much alive and this album is a true must have for fans of this famous Finnish band. In my opinion, this album is yet another masterpiece and it makes me wonder if this band can actually produce something unworhty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why this album is hated by so many is beyond me...., July 4 2004
By 
Steven Moore (The City Of Rock'n Roll) - See all my reviews
This may possibly HIM's most underated album to date. Why, I have no idea having listend to all of their albums. Yes, Deep Shadows And Brilliant Highlights does venture a little far from say Greatest Love Songs Vol.666, but so did Razorblade Romance. And Love Metal is just a different from there past works as DSBH. Lucky, the more respectable HIM fans do see this album's greatness. Each HIM album is unique. Thats what makes them so great. You never hear anything repeat.

Standout Tracks:
Salt In Our Wounds
Beautiful
Love You Like I Do

Reccomends:
Greatest Love Songs Vol.666
Razorblade Romance
Deep Shadows And Brilliant Highlights (Digipak)
Love Metal
And Love Said No...The Greatest Hits [1997-2004]
The Singles Collection
