KING DIAMOND

Release on 2-CD Digipack of the 6th album from 1995 by the legendary KING DIAMOND, one of the most influential figures in Heavy Metal and Horror Metal. After a five-year break from releasing solo albums, he returned with a record that launched a new chapter in his career, bringing back his trademark dark and theatrical sound. Unlike most of his albums, however, only the final four tracks form the actual concept story of The Spider's Lullabye, while the rest are standalone songs.

Driven by Andy La Rocque's outstanding guitar work, the album blends razor-sharp riffs, eerie atmospheres, memorable melodies and King Diamond's unmistakable vocal performance. Although initially overshadowed by some of his classic releases, it has since earned recognition as one of the most underrated entries in his catalogue and an essential addition for every fan of the Danish master.

Recommended for fans of: MERCYFUL FATE, SAVATAGE, CRIMSON GLORY, CANDLEMASS, NEVERMORE. [Digipack]
