H.I.M.: Live Footage Of New Single 'Kiss Of Dawn' Posted Online

Fan-filmed video footage of Finnish goth-metallers H.I.M. performing their new song "Kiss of Dawn" live at VK Club in Brussels, Belgium on July 7, 2007 has been posted at YouTube.

"Kiss of Dawn" is the first single off H.I.M.'s new album, "Venus Doom", due in North America on September 18 via Sire. The CD was recorded with producer Tim Palmer (U2, SWITCHFOOT, HOT HOT HEAT) and co-producer Hiili Hiilesmaa at Finnvox Studios in Finland.

With "Venus Doom", the band's sixth album, H.I.M. fans can anticipate a decisively heavier sound, influenced by BLACK SABBATH, old-school METALLICA and SOUNDGARDEN, among others.

"Venus Doom" track listing (not confirmed):

01. Venus Doom
02. Love in Cold Blood
03. Passion's Killing Floor
04. Kiss of Dawn
05. Sleepwalking Past Hope
06. Dead Lover's Lane
07. Song or Suicide
08. Bleedwell
09. Cyanide Sun

"Passion's Killing Floor" is included on the soundtrack album to Michael Bay's "Transformers", which came out on July 3 via Warner Bros.

H.I.M. filmed a new video last month in the Los Angeles area. Directing the clip was Meiert Avis, who has previously worked with U2, AVRIL LAVIGNE, JENNIFER LOPEZ and BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, in addition to helming H.I.M.'s "Wings of a Butterfly" video.
