The third millennium has proved that the cosy days of cult status are a thing of the past for HIM. Join Me, the first single off the band’s second album Razorblade Romance, was released in Finland and Germany in November 1999. Appearing also on the soundtrack of German Movie “The 13th floor”, a production of Independence Day / Godzilla – director number 1# in the single charts in both countries.
In January 2000 the album Razorblade Romance went straight into number #1 in the album charts both in Germany and Finland. Two months after the release the first single Join Me has sold more than 500 thousand copies, achieved gold status in Germany and has became the best selling Finnish CD single of all-time. In Finland, the single went platinum (20 000) in just two weeks.
Razorblade Romance was recorded at Rockfield Studios, the birthplace of such classics as Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody, Oasis’s (What’s The Story) Morning Glory and, as the band are keen to point out, the debut album of Black Sabbath. Razorblade Romance was produce by John Fryer who has previously worked with White Zombie, Nine Inch Nails and Depeche Mode.
