Up In Neon Lights With VILLE VALO

Interview by Erin Eddy
Finnish gothic rock legend Ville Valo is gearing up for an
electrifying return to the Australian and New Zealand stages after
a decade-long hiatus. With his debut solo album Neon Noir still
reverberating through the music scene, Valo took some time to chat
with HEAVY Mag about his latest ventures and the eagerly awaited
tour.
Valo delved into the creative process behind Neon Noir and how it
feels to step into the spotlight as a solo artist. From the
haunting melodies to the introspective lyrics, the album is a
testament to Valo's musical evolution and his ability to captivate
audiences with his distinctive style.
Valo's upcoming tour marks his first visit to Australia in a
decade, promising fans an unforgettable live experience. From
Auckland to Brisbane, Valo will be enchanting audiences with a mix
of solo tracks and beloved HIM classics, showcasing his
unparalleled vocal range and magnetic stage presence.
But before hitting the road, HEAVY Mag put Valo to the test,
challenging him to decipher some Aussie slang. From "servo" to
"esky", Valo's reactions were as entertaining as they were
endearing, proving that even a Finnish rock god can appreciate the
charm of Down Under.
So, whether you're a die-hard fan or simply curious to witness
Valo's magic first hand, be sure to grab your tickets now for what
