Heartagram Art Group

The heartagram is the name of a trademarked symbol of HIM. It is a combination of a heart and a pentagram. Valo created the heartagram the day after his twentieth birthday. The heartagram has been falsely associated with satanism. Valo has said that "the heartagram stands for HIM as a band, as an entity, and for 'love metal' in general."

Many fans of the band have heartagram tattoos or tattoos of other HIM emblems (such as the single heart on Valo's right wrist). Fan-submitted photos of such tattoos decorated the lyric booklet for the limited edition of Dark Light.

Ville Valo has allowed his close friend, Jackass star and professional skateboarder, Bam Margera to share the license on the image and Margera is accordingly entitled to use it for his promotional purposes, for example most of his Adio shoes have the symbol.

Because of this, many people think it is Bam's logo. Even so, it has been profitable for the band because it gives them a lot of publicity, and according to Ville in one of his interviews, more people know the band because of the symbol and Bam than because of their music.

The video game comedy troupe Mega64 parodied the Heartagram, and HIM, in the episode Ode To Sue on their second DVD with the Horseagram, a combination of a horseshoe and a pentagram, in which one of the main characters, Dr. Poque, explains awkwardly about how he really likes the band, TIM, and what the horseagram on his beanie represents.

At the end of the music video for the song DARE by Gorillaz, the Heartagram can be spotted on the wall of Murdoc's bedroom.
