I will start with the following quote

"Neon Noir is a sonic step-by-step guide on how to survive, and perhaps even enjoy, the realm of VV with its abundance of things that go bump in the night,” says Valo. “It’s a teary mascara marathon between Robert Smith and Ozzy, with a dash of hope.”

 

I can safely safe if you’re a fan of HIM this record will not disappointment as their classics sounds and themes from Ville Valo, from cleverly worded lyrics such as the lyric is the forever lost (. moon dial up sun dial down) to soaring melodic chorus that will have you humming alone.

 

all of this is pieced together in these huge beautiful mesmerizing soundscapes vertigo eyes is the perfect example of this.

 

In closing HIM may have been gone for the past five years, but, it’s so good to have Ville Valo still humming and strumming on his guitar.

 There is still such love for Ville Valo, the key with Neon Noir is it’s not a HIM album it’s a Ville Valo album

Tracks to make your hairs stand up on the back of your neck

Echolocate Your Love, The Foreverlost, Neon Noir, Vertigo Eyes

 

Neon Noir is the perfect offering of mesmerizing soundscapes 9/10
