I like it a lot, I think it's better than both House of God and Voodoo, but not as good as the older stuff. It also seems to have an older sound to it.

I like it a lot, too. I am very sad to hear that Metal Blade is not letting the band tour. In my opinion King Diamond is one of the best bands on Metal Blade. Whether you like King's voice or not is up for debate, but, nobody in their right mind can deny that he has made an impact on the music business and that his albums are fairly consistant in their quality even though the members of his band change. He is probably one of the most important metal artists that has never been on a major label. I'd really like to see him get off the indy labels and get a decent record deal. It would be interesteing to see what would happen.

I'm not crazy about the King's solo stuff. I prefer Mercyful Fate.

I like it as well. I am also a King Diamond fan and I think his music is one of those either you like it or you don't. It's not music that grows on you like some others. Most people like it from the begining or hate it.

I also think that Mercyful Fate and King's solo stuff is pretty much the same music with very little seperating factors.

Ungodly, I totally agree. After Mercyful Fate broke up the first time and King Diamond started his solo career, the sound of both bands were very familiar with each other.

I like it... I really have no complaints about any KING DIAMOND albums. My fave still is and probably always will be "Them" followed by "The Eye".

A good album, but not up to par with Abigail or House Of God, which I think is criminally underrated. Still enjoy it, though.

About King being on a major label, he was for two seconds in 1993. I have an early cassette copy of In The Shadows and at the time Metal Blade was merged with Warner Bros., because the WB label appears on my cassette copy. I don't think that lasted long, as subsequent printings are just Metal Blade.
