Album Notes & Community Reviews
'The Eye' is a highly theatrical, dark heavy metal concept album concerning the horrifying realities of the 17th-century European witch trials. King Diamond utilizes his signature falsetto and complex, progressive metal-infused arrangements to deliver a deeply ominous, suspenseful, and melodic paranormal narrative.
