MY THOUGHTS
As a 14-year-old it was equally fascinating as scary listening to “Don’t Break The Oath”. The cover art, the occult lyrics and King Diamond’s multifaceted vocal delivery felt like being in a horror movie. I didn’t really get the record at first, but something made me go back and listen time and time again. After a while I was hooked, and I still am. A classic album in all its right!

Who will be the first to fall in trance
In here nobody is sensing the rain
Tonight a spirit will glance”
