HIM Ville Valo Poster 034

Before he became a tattoo on a million arms, Ville Valo was just a Finnish kid who convinced the world that heartagram-branded love metal was a legitimate genre. He was right.

This full-colour maxi poster captures HIM's frontman in peak dark romantic form, the kind of brooding image that belongs on the wall of anyone who spent their formative years listening to Love Metal and Dark Light on repeat. HIM walked a line between gothic rock, glam, and heavy metal that basically nobody else could pull off, and Valo's whole aesthetic, the cigarettes, the heartagram, the eyeliner worn without irony, became a genuine touchstone for an entire generation of alternative kids. This one's for the devotees.

Maxi poster, 60cm wide x 90cm tall. We can also frame this for you in a black matte wooden frame with the poster professionally mounted on MDF, just send us a message to arrange it.
