Album Notes & Community Reviews
Marking the highly anticipated reunion of the Danish occult metal pioneers, this comeback album successfully reignites the theatricality and complex twin-guitar interplay of their early 1980s masterpieces. King Diamond's iconic falsetto remains undiminished as the band delivers intricate, progressive song structures steeped in dark, supernatural lyricism.
