The 2nd Album by the band HIM. It is their best selling album to date. It features the song Join Me (In Death) which was used in the European version of The 4th floor with Juilette Lewis.
The Razorblade Smile is the act of using MySpace, Facebook or other popular social sites to make give someone mild to severe mental distress or even lead them to suicide. This is done by creating a false profile, befreinding and or seducing them online, then turn on them in some horrible way. All the while never comming into live contact with the target.(Razorblade for them, Smile for you)
A woman posed as a teenage boy to seduce and ultimately destroy her daughter's best freind using the MySpace network. The girl she wrote to commited suicide shortly after the "break up". A true example of the Razorblade Smile..
A definition to describe a conference is full of retards that remind you of a single person. The person it reminds you of is someone you really don't like.

This is the album that made HIM huge in Europe when their single Join Me In Death was featured in the sci-fi movie The Thirteenth Floor. It reached #1 on German sales charts, going platinum, and is the biggest-selling single in Finnish music history.
Razorblade Romance was released shortly after in the U.S. under the moniker "HER". There was a jazz band in Chicago named HiM who did not want to give up the rights to their name, but eventually HIM bought the rights to use their name in the United States and now can release their albums under it. The American albums were released under Jimmy Franks Recording Company, run by Jimmy Pop, singer of the Pennsylvania band Bloodhound Gang. They released the HER 'Razorblade Romance' around the Boston area, and once HIM regained the rights to their name, they rereleased 'Razorblade Romance' nationwide under Universal Records.
Multiple versions of this album exist, including the Finnish and German version with tracks one to eleven below. The aforehand mentioned British version with a new versions of "Your Sweet Six Six Six" entitled "Your Sweet 666", and a new version of "Wicked Game". A new version of "It's All Tears (Drown In this Love) was also recorded for the album, but it didn't make it to the final track list (it was later made available on the UK version of the compilation And Love Said No). In addition to this, the title of "I Love You (Prelude to Tragedy)" was cut down to "I Love You" (there are no official statements that explain why). There are two different U.S. versions with the British tracklisting, plus "Sigillum Diaboli" and "One Last Time" (one had a Parental Advisory label and one did not); another U.S. edition released under the name "HER" with "The 9th Circle" added; a special U.S. vinyl released in 2005 featuring the same track listing of the U.S. CD; and a few others.
