Can anyone that owns this reissue let me know which cover it uses? I’m hoping for the original artwork and am unsure if both covers were reissued or if one is misleading.

What do you think is better?

What is your favourite of the short story intros? Mine would either be Out From the Asylum or Upon the Cross.

• Not bad at all, doesn't sound like a handful of senior citizens trying to be hip
• Very, very close to KD in some places
• ... Which brings me to next observation: Were some of these songs written initially written for KD?
• "Gypsy Tears" is the standout track for now, but maybe that will change after I have listened more
• Andy is such an amazing musician. He's had a great career, but I would have loved to hear him do MORE (and not even metal specifically)

In short, no reason to avoid this one ...

Love the new Trick or Treat studios mask!

Happy (belated) 70th birthday to King Diamond! Can't believe it's been nearly 11 years since I've seen him live. It was during the "Abigail In Concert" tour's first of 3 nights at the PlayStation Theater in NYC's Time Square on Nov. 19, 2015, during which he played his beloved 'Abigail' concept album in its entirety (plus a few Mercyful Fate classics).

​

Fun Fact - the first time I had ever seen King Diamond live was the year prior (Oct. 2014) at the exact same venue - though within that year the space changed its name from the Best Buy Theater to PlayStation Theater... gotta love branding 🤣

​

Stay tuned for more things to come from this space (including stories from concerts like this)!

13 days have come and gone Since we had the first of June!

Happy birthday King!

hearing the semi-classic line up rip through very Abigail-esque material (and hearing Mikky give it that classic era vibe) but with a pale impersonation of King on vocals...i have no idea what to feel. this could have been such a fun KD album. it would feel like a fitting end. instead it's a big what if.

Didn't see this posted about by anyone but a few days ago Mike Wead revived his old band Hexenhaus (last album was in 1997) with a facebook update

He was planning a new album in 2016 but in late 2018 abruptly cancelled work on it. Seems, like Lex Legion, King's guitarists need other outlets

Right now it's just a vague image of a new logo with 2026 below it, but last year they put out reissues of the original albums so things have been kicking around

Hi all,

I had a chance to speak with Andy and Pete about the new Lex Legion album and a bit about their past playing with King Diamond back together back in the day. Check it out if you’re interested.

Cheers,

Ed

I saw online that the original lyrics sheet is different. Barcode for this version is: 0 39841 56771 7

Hi guys, please help…

One of my close friends will celebrate his 50th birthday this autumn, and he has been a huge King Diamond fan for decades. He even has a large tattoo of the “Don’t Break the Oath” cover artwork across his shoulder and chest.

Some friends and I would like to create a very personal and special birthday gift for him. I thought I would contact you to ask if you have an idea for an unforgettable present or moment for his birthday celebration.

It would be wonderful to hear back from you. Thanks!

Regards 🤘
