SWRMXS is the third remix/ compilation album released by HIM.

It features remixes of all the songs from their studio album, 'Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice'.

Pre-orders for this release began on 12, November 2010, and the album was released on 7, December 2010 physically and later digitally.

The pre-ordered copies came with a t-shirt featuring the album artwork.

The album artwork was inspired by Valo, as he explained: 'I dreamt the image one night, opened up the toolbox in the morn and started smashing the vhs tape to a gazillion tiny bits with a hammer. After it's guts were splattered on my kitchen floor, I rather delicately forced the tape to form a heartagram. Not too different than creating a remix, see?'

An Additional Note...

This would be/ is the final release through Warner Brothers/ Sire Records for the band. A few months later (March, 2011), it was officially announced that HIM had parted ways with Warner Bros./ Sire.
