Man, if you want something close to King Diamond, then listen to the greek band Heathendom. They recently released their debut album "Nescience" and it's great.

This is so random but, if you like stuff with vocals like that with a kind of visual art direction and fantasy lyrics you might kind of get these two pop songs by Kate:

 

[Hypnos]

Mercyful Fate obviously

Wow, that is quite obvious.

Even more obvious then some of the recs I make.
