Mercyful Fate/King Diamond Worship thread

I am not super familiar with the catelog but have heard Melissa and just like Nevermore the vox take some getting used to and can be a deal breaker for a lot of people but I always like what I hear instrumentally.

Yeah I can understand that at first, but the music is just too good and at this point I simply worship KD and everything he does. One of the greatest frontman to ever exist.
 
First concert I went to with friends. Last concert I saw (Philadelphia) before COVID. If I'm being honest I think I'm retired from live shows and it kind of ties it up nicely. I've seen fate and diamond at least a dozen times. His excitement and appreciation of the crowd is second to none

Somehow you could be in the back, and you feel like he's talking right to you or thanking you personally for coming.

One of the great closing moments to an album right here

If you say Heaven, I say a castle of lies
You say forgive him, I say revenge
My sweet Satan, you are the ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What decides it for you?

I'm about to be 45 in the summer, and I am still going out to shows.
 
GOAT tribute intro hahahaha

I only in the last year or so started looking into SOD. I remembered their album covers from trips to Sound Warehouse in the early 90s, and always thought they looked cool. When I finally gave them a listen, I was ashamed to have put that off for so long. Kinda like Suicidal Tendencies, with less cholo.

That vid you posted kicks ass, hadn't heard it
 
Way off topic, but thanks for putting me onto those Book Club Radio gigs. They've got a fuck ton of them on YouTube, haven't ran into one that sucks yet. Tinzo is my new jam

Yeah its off the second album, which isnt that great. But I like that intro hahaha me and my friends would repeat it to each other all the time.

The first album though is a classic and controversial record, it def has its place in metal history.
