HIM wie in Finske metalband út Helsinki, oprjochte yn 1991.
De sjongteksten, dy 't benammen troch Ville Valo skreaun waarden, kombinearje de tema's fan leafde en dea. De folsleine bandnamme wie oarspronklik His Infernal Majesty, mar nei in tal feroarings yn de band feroare de namme simpelwei yn HIM. HIM brocht yn 1997 syn debútalbum "Greatest Lovesongs Vol. 666" út. It achtste en lêste studio-album "Tears on Tape" kaam út yn 2013. Op âldjiersdei yn 2017 hat HIM syn lêste optreden jûn yn syn thúslân.
