King Diamond- Deadly Lullabyes Live

[Oblivious Maximus]

Is anyone else going to get the new King Diamond double live album? According to covenworldwide.org (King's offical website), it's scheduled to be released on September 21. Heres' the track list:

1. Funeral
2. A Mansion In Darkness
3. The Family Ghost
4. Black Horsemen
5. Spare This Life
6. Mansion In Sorrow
7. Spirits
8. Sorry Dear
9. Eye Of The Witch
10. Sleepless Nights
11. The Puppet Master
12. Blood To Walk
13. So Sad
14. Living Dead "Outro"
15. Welcome Home
16. The Invisible Guests
17. Burn
18. "Introductions"
19. Halloween
20. No Presents For Christmas

It looks like a pretty good list of songs, although I wish "The Ritual" was on there.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Nah, not a fan. He gets way too much homosexual fanboyism (Mercyful Fate included) for my liking, too.

Yeah, he does. And it's too bad too. Those homosexual fanboys give the other fans a bad name. There were alot of them when I went to one of his shows last year. At least they're not as bad as the Opeth fanboys.

 

[TheGraveDigger]

I am definetly gonna check this out. I saw him last November when he was doing this setlist live and it was just awesome.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

If the performance is good, I'll look into it.

His music was always okay, but my God did that voice ruin a lot of it.

Not a big fan of the nuts in a vice vocal style I take it?

 

[Lilitu]

Well, a fan of the vocal style or not, he deserves more respect. He has never had any vocal lessons in his life and he's pretty damn good.

No. I don't like Chester Bennington either.

Power metal I do like.

I've never had a vocal lesson in my life, and I rape Diamond to death. Being able to sing extraordinarily high and completely off-key, off-rhythm, and out of tune doesn't mean shit. He only deserves respect for being in two bands that did loads for the metal genre.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

I've never had a vocal lesson in my life, and I rape Diamond to death.

Can you out-growl Chris Barnes?

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Probably not. It depends. I have a wider range of extreme metal vocals than Barnes, but I can't do that gorilla-getting-sodomized grunting thing he does.

 

[skeptik]

Chris Barnes is total, absolute shit.

King Diamond and Mercyful Fate are some of the catchiest music of all time.

 

[anonymousnick2001]

Agreed. Their music is amazing. Aside from the vocals.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

I think the vocals are good. The music is great.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

King Diamond is a bad stereotype of good falsetto singing.

 

[Psychonaut]

I'll be getting it. I'm not as much of a fan of live recordings but I imagine this will be good. I'd rather see him live to watch his performance so I wish this was coming out as a DVD but there's some great songs on this.

I love his voice, but I've been listening to him since '86 so yeah.

 

[blakmetalemp]

The very first time I heard King I thought he had a female singer with him. However I love teh Diamond and will check this out.
