The 1981 debut album from Mercyful Fate, the seminal Danish heshers fronted by the inimitable King Diamond, still kicks an unfathomable amount of ass today. While Diamond perfected his theatrical persona and fantastical lyrics on later Mercyful Fate albums, and throughout his solo career, Melissa is the purest distillation of his maniacal charm — which is why “Evil,” “Curse of the Pharaoh’s” and its title-track are still considered some of the greatest songs he’s ever belted over. It’s a vinyl must-own.
Usually ships same or next day.
