3 different singles with 3 different video clips filmed in 3 different countries!This was the hot issue that Ville and Mige spilled out in this week's Kerrang. All Lips Go Blue will be a single in the UK, Into The Night in Finland, а Tears On Tape in Russia. The videos for Into The Night and Tears oN Tape are already shot, wheareas All Lips Go Blue is about to be shot. The video director is Stefan Lindfors (The Funeral Of Hearts)!
While we were talking, 30 second preview of Tears on Tape have been downloaded from Amazon. However, till the leaking of the album there are only 45 days and obviously at this stage this doesn't do much change.
All Lips Go Blue will be the 1st single of the upcoming Tears On Tape. This was announced by Ville himself on radio Kerrang a few days ago. A new video montage is up to come, which means, that until the 5th of April it should be done.
Razor AND Tie have released a webcite for sale of the album + t-shirts or switchers, vinels, etc. They are unique but be careful as the cost of the delivery is pretty salty. edited
You can already hear 30 secunds preview from each song of Tears On Tape - Аmazon. From the same link it can be seen the length of each song and therefore the whole album. It seems like the shortest in the band's history so far. 40:56, and without the instrumental parts around 34:30.
1. Unleash The Red 1:07 2. All Lips Go Blue 3:49 3. Love Without Tears 3:37 4. I Will Be The End Of You 3:33 5. Tears On Tape 3:21 6. Into The Night 3:36 7. Hearts At War 3:46

It looks like all is messed up right now. There is no website, no information, it's not apparent which song is gonna be single , there is no videoclip, or information of the filming of one. The date of the album release is for the end of the next month , while there is something like 40 % of the album in the internet already. Back in 2010 30 seconds samples were released in Amazon, only 10 days before the release of Screamworks. Today is the 47th day before Tears On Tape, and they are already there.
In the official HIM facebook page the message that there will be very very soon more information of the album was shared. Many people believe the release date would be change for earlier. All this is still yet to be clearfied in the first days of the next week.
The text of the Into The Night have been added to section Texts. In the forum you will be able to see the new photo of the band for 2013. FORUM
Into The Night is already on radio Yle in Finland. I guess this night at some point it will be possible to access via youtube. . I guess most of you have already heard Tears On Tape, which was played on radion Moscow!It seems though that this never was supposed to happen because it wasn't approved by the managing team of the band. Who would suspect that 50 days before the release of the album we would have heard 3 full new songs plus one live version.With this development of the events it wouldn't be surprising if the whole album leaks out into the net by the end of March, which me personally hopes not to happen ... :D
What kinda suz is that due to the lates data the album will contain 4 instrumental songs! Unleash The Red is the album's intro. Kiss The Void is the outro. The other 2 are Trapped In Autumn and Lucifer Chorale. What is left ti be heard from the album you can estimate pretty much yourselves...
While we are waiting for the new look of heartagram.com - Monday evening at 24:00 All Lips Go Blue totally ruld over the radio stations in the UK. This is the most favourite track of Ville from Tears On Tape. He says himself that the album will sound heavier and more melodious than ever... for now we can agree...:)
Thousands of copies are already sent to different media and promoters and the reviews are terribly good! The emphasize is put on songs such as When Love Starts To Die, Hearts At War etc.. Obviously Tears On Tape looks like it might be the best that the band has ever made...да бъде най-доброто, което някога бандата е записвала...to spike the sceptics...
Into The Night - was announced as the first single to the album by Universal Music Finland, and the release of All Lips Go Blue shouldn't change the picture and probably would be included to the single or would be a singular radio single. Or maybe they changed their opinion at the very last moment and it will be the first single. All this is going to become clear in the next 2 weeks. Usually the videoclip is released a month before the album itself, so there are only a few days to pass..
All about the album you could find in our forum while All Lips Go Blue can be easily acceptable on youtube.
Still not completely official, but most probably this would be the new album cover of Tears On Tape.
More hot news! Universal Music Finland will be the label to release the HIM album in Finland. In their opinion Tears On Tape will be released in Finland the worldwide on the 26nd of April, while in USA and UK on the 29th. The first single would Into The Night, and not as predicted by Ville himself from the gigs at Tavastia, I Will Be The End Of You. Moreover, the band will be playing in Germany - Berlin and Koln on 22nd and 24th of April.
As for now our prediction have been justified completely - HIM are touring in the States during May, which means the autumn is Europe...Greece, Romania, Bulgaria ;)...wherever we wish.
Tears On Tape is going out on the 29th of April in the UK & Ireland in the form of DoubleCross/Cooking Vinyl's. As for the USA & Canada the album will be distributed by Razor & Tie. Thi is more than an obvious hint that the band is planning to fully concentrate on creating their music the way they want it and is totally regecting to go for another commercial label that goes for the profit!
The band is gonna have an exclusive gig at London’s Dingwalls venue on the 26th of April, where they are planning to play the new material( I hope all of it :) ). Also, in one month period the tour dates are expected to be released. Me, personally hopes that this would be during May, so that since September they could start the European tour.
Metal Hammer is going to sell original FanPack version of the album for the keenest fans of the band. More information on - Tears On Tape FanPack Edition
And as for the end, a SURPRIZE :)

As it looks like, the band will keep us in the dark till the very last moment!Apparantly for St Valentine's Day and more specificaly Heartagram Day, which this year has been planned on the 9th of February, we will manage to see the surprises, so long anticipated. But until this day lets take some time to enjoy the small changes taking place at the webcite.
The first thing that I want to mention is that from this week all the links in TVReuqest have been uploaded as a prmenant storage. Thanks to our friends from thesacrament.net, all the concerts and video clip will be stored at their adress and only one click will devide us from the possibility to be downloaded. Qickly, easy with no restrictions!If you experience any poblems, have innovative opinions or ideas - please do not hesitate to wite to us!
The secong newby in the webite is the menue Others - Archive - heartagram.com. I have made a backup pictures of the official webpage during every single one of the long years it has been existing.
Ето че ни делят броени дни до началото на Tears On Tape ерата. Както винаги промотирането на албум започва поне 2 месеца по-рано. Да предположим, че датата на излизане бъде началото на април - то вече е време групата да ни залее с информация, нов сайт, сингъл, ново видео и т.н.
Също така се надявам да харесвате новата песен. За 13г, за първи път виждам толкова единодушно позитивно мнение, относно нова песен, която изпълняват. За сравнение, първите песни, които представяха преди всеки албум са: 2001 - Pretenging, Please Don't Let it Go, In Joy And Sorrow 2003 - Soul On Fire 2005 - Killing Loneliness, Vampire Heart 2007 - Dead Lover's Lane 2010 - Love The Hardest Way, Scared To Death 2013 - I Will Be The End Of You
Ако I Wll Be The End Of You е наполовина толкова добра, колкото са тези песни в албумите си, то не ми се мисли останалите от Tears On Tape, колко ще са яки.
