Footage from KING DIAMOND’s new Blu-ray/DVD, etc. live release “Songs For The Dead Live” has been uploaded. The below performance of “A Mansion In Darkness“, which was recorded live at a November 15th, 2015 show at The Fillmore in Philadelphia, PA, is the latest clip to be shared.
“Songs For The Dead Live” features that entire aforementioned performance as well as the band’s June 17th, 2016 set at the annual ‘Graspop Metal Meeting‘ festival in Dessel, Belgium. Both shows saw the band performing Diamond‘s 1987 release “Abigail” in full. You can find “Songs For The Dead Live” in stores on January 25th through Metal Blade.
Widely regarded as the finest vocalist in all of metal (who possesses a multi-octave range), theatrical rocker KING DIAMOND first rose to prominence as a member of Mercyful Fate before launching a solo career on his own. Born Kim Bendix Petersen in Denmark on June 14, 1956, the future King Diamond was originally drawn to theatrically based hard rock due to such trailblazers as Alice Cooper, and soon began fronting local bands in the ’70s, including a punk metal outfit called the Brats.
