Album Description Uneasy Listening Vol. 2 is the companion album to Uneasy Listening Vol. 1. Both albums are collections of previously unreleased versions of the band's classic tracks. Uneasy Listening Vol. 2 features rarities and hard-to-find versions of some of HIM's biggest hits. This special album includes demos, remixes, live and alternate studio recordings of the band's heavier repertoire. Much of this material has never before been released and is highlighted by the highly sought after version of "Buried Alive By Love" featured in Bam Margera's CKY4 DVD. Whereas Uneasy Listening Vol. 1 featured the sentimental side of HIM, Vol. 2 focuses on the band's harder side and all versions have been selected by the band's singer Ville Valo. He explains, "Most of these versions are hard to find nowadays. Fans have frequently been asking us where to find these songs. The songs are also important to the band. They are songs that have allowed us to express our musical perversions." Valo summarizes the two-volume set: "Vol. 1 is music for Sunday mornings whereas Vol. 2 is for Saturday nights."

This is NOT Goth music.... October 10, 2008 Laurie Dennie (Texas USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I can't believe anyone would even begin to classify this band as "Gothic." Do people REALLY like them? They are not Goth, they are Glam Rock and not good glam rock either. This is crappy, uninspired stuff--only fit for teenagers, and only the ones without discerning tastes, at that (not trying to denigrate teenagers either, okay--ADULTS somehow like this band as well). Please, at least let's call this what it is--this is pop rock, glam rock, but not GOTH rock or Goth anything. I took it back and got Mephisto Walz...now there's a good Goth band....sorry to disagree with you other reviewers, but in my opinion, this band is VERY over-rated. They simply reek...
It differs from the first volume but is good in its own right September 26, 2008 H. Juster (New York) The songs on this Cd are loud and wistful. but the first volume has very lovely tracks which flow along well. These are also mostly live. I preferred the first volume and I would not recommend buying this one based on the first. It is good in its own right though. I enjoy it less than the first however.
HIM CD December 17, 2007 K. Gasner Bought this for a Xmas gift. My daughters favorite band. It came quickly as well.
H.I.M.: Uneasy Listening Vol. 2 (2007) November 20, 2007 Chad DeFeo (Philadelphia, PA USA) UNEASY LISTENING VOL. 1 focued more on H.I.M.'s sofer side of Rock & Metal.Focusing more on H.I.M.'s harder side of Rock & Metal is H.I.M.'s second remix compilation, UNEASY LISTENING VOL. 2. Once again, H.I.M. has released another great album. BURIED ALIVE BY LOVE (616 Version) Original album version from the album LOVE METAL (2003). Great remix. RENDEZVOUS WITH ARMS Turbonegro Cover. Great cover. SIGILLUM DIABOLI (Studio Live Evil) Original album version from the album RAZORBLADE ROMANCE (1999). Great remix. I LOVE YOU (White House Version) New song. Great. THE BEGINNING OF THE END (Sad Damn Version) Original album version from the album GREATEST LOVESONGS VOL. 666 (1997). Killer remix. AGAIN (HOLLOVLAD TEPES) Original album version from the album DEEP SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS (2001) (Limited Edition Christmas Version). Great remix. WICKED GAME (Live In Turku) Original album version from the album GREATEST LOVESONGS VOL. 666 (1997). Re-Recorded Version from the album RAZORBLADE ROMANCE (1999). Whether live or studio recorded (both original album and re-recorded), this song is still amazing. SOUL ON FIRE (Erich Zann's Supernatural RMX) Original album version from the album LOVE METAL (2003). Awesome remix. BEAUTIFUL (Hollovlad Tepes) Original album version from the album DEEP SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS (2001). Great remix. ENDLESS DARK (616 Version) Original album version from the album LOVE METAL (2003). Great remix. HAND OF DOOM (Live In Turku) Black Sabbath cover. Great cover song, and I despise Black Sabbath. RIGHT HERE IN MY ARMS (Live In Turke) Original album version from the album RAZORBLADE ROMANCE (1999). Great live performance. SAILIN' ON (Live In Turku) Bad Brains cover. Great cover. PRETENDING (Cosmic Pope Jam Version) Original album version from the album DEEP SHADOWS AND BRILLIANT HIGHLIGHTS (2001). Great remix.
