HIM’s new release, Uneasy Listening Vol. 1, which has hit stores now, is a collection of previously unreleased versions of the band’s classic tracks. This special compilation includes rarities and hard-to-find versions of the biggest hits. The album includes acoustic, live, remixed and alternate recordings of “Join Me In Death”, “The Sacrament”, “Buried Alive By Love” and a dozen more favorites from Finland’s famed goth rockers.
