Well I see that Syl got a whopping 1-Guitar rating! Maybe his/her opinion on this subject might have had something to do with that!

There is no other act or person that has had a bigger impact on my life then King Diamond, from the first time i heard MF in 1983, ive been hooked on the guys voice,talent,creativity and sure musical brilliance. I even ran the #kingdiamond channel on mirc -undernet for several years. Ive been lucky enough to meet pretty much everyone around or involved with MF or KD. except the man himself. I have to say that i am disapointed in Abigail 2, It just doesnt catch me, like most of everything else he has done. King Diamond turns 46 tomorrow. (june 14th)
He has been busting his ass for over 20 years, many of those years being the driving force of two major bands. and yes they are different bands. There is a huge difference between the two bands, it wasent always so distint, but now its a vast difference. Maybe we will get lucky and he can play Milwaukee metalfest atleast, if not any other tour.
I also agree with those of you who said that 9 is underated, (that ball will fly fly away!!) you hit that one hard and deep. 9 is a classic as far as im concerned. it stands with Melissa and The Oath. and out of all the times ive seen MF was one of there best shows life.

Its time for King to leave Metal blade, and MF too. If they wont support him to tour, then its time to go. Im sure Neclear blast america, or
century media would be more then happy to pick up the two bands.

I am sure that both Century Media and Nuclear Blast do a good job with promoting the music of up and coming bands. However, I think it is time that KD or MF signs with a MAJOR LABEL---not another little one. That is just my opinion.

nice to see some support for King in this group of "classic" metal lovers. I can completely respect anyones dislike for King. The satanic lyrics for one and the screeching vocals. But no doubt, the music is the base for the success, he is consistantly metal. Sure he has had his low points through the years, but never truly disappointing true fans. I think the best thing about King is that you can always count on an album every year or 2. He just keeps making music even without the support, money or marketing. I bought most of my albums in the recycled bin...one mans trash in anothers treasure.

I just never much dug KD's vocals - I don't think anybody alive has ever heard a castrati singer, but I'll bet KD sounds pretty close.

Though, I did manage to once, long ago, get a girlfriend into one KD (instrumental) song. I thought that was weird that she latched onto that one.

Yeah. I have noticed that chicks have always liked KD stuff. Never understood that.

Being a drummer, it is hard to look at KD in the same way I did when Mickey Dee was in the band. I am listening to Abigail II now and am still undecided.

But, then again, I am a musician and have much different criteria in deciding what music is worthey of my attention.
