On September 9th, the Rat Queen interviewed Ville Valo, frontman of the wildly successful Finnish rock band H.I.M.
With fans almost cultish in devotion, H.I.M. is the first Finnish band to have a certified platinum record in the United States. Below is the full, unedited interview. It's kind of a dodgy listen in some places, but this version is posted because the guy is so charming, even during the rougher moments. Enjoy!
