I’ll never forget the first time I heard King Diamond. A friend lent me “Them” and informed me I needed to listen to it all in one sitting. He told said it was a frightening experience and so I was excited. Of course, over the next 20+ years, I’ve been a huge fan of King and have just about everything he’s put out. Seeing the bands reunite to record songs for Guitar Hero: Metallica and then play with Metallica live in December, I was thoroughly excited to see King back. Two European shows are scheduled and man, the setlist for the first looks friggin’ incredible! Look at this stuff! (Info from Metal Shock)
