HiM is an American music project formed around drummer Doug Scharin that blends post-rock, dub, jazz and fusion; contributors include Rob Mazurek and Christian Dautresme.

Founded by drummer Doug Scharin; notable contributors mentioned in reviews include Rob Mazurek and Christian Dautresme. The music merges post-rock, dub, jazz and fusion and places strong emphasis on rhythm. The band is sometimes confused with the Finnish band HIM due to name homonymy.

Two DeBaser reviews by panurge discuss HiM, a side project led by drummer Doug Scharin. Reviewers highlight a hybrid sound mixing post-rock, dub, jazz and fusion, with rhythmic focus and varied instrumentation. Many in High Places Are Not Well is praised for rhythmic complexity; Peoples is noted for variety and texture. Overall, the coverage is positive with measured reservations about genre fashion.

For:Fans of rhythm-forward post-rock, dub-influenced experimental music and jazz/fusion hybrids.

 No homonymy was ever more mocking, and forgive the pedantry with which I started the discussion, but I know that a lot of self-proclaimed experts will come to annoy without even reading the first lines.

 Elaborate, cerebral, delicate, if not exactly overwhelming, this album by Him certainly deserves a quiet attention.
