King Diamond - 'Voodoo' (Metal Blade)

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Somewhat over-the-top (but, in a good way), 1998 solo release by the notorious King Diamond. This looks to be his eighth solo outing. Put out around the same time as Mercyful Fate's 'Dead Again', but better. This CD covers some scary subjects like ghosts, witch craft and the afterlife. Tracks that I thought showed that Diamond still has it are "LOA House", the head-banging title cut "Voodoo", "Salem", "Sarah's Night" and the outrageous "If They Only Knew". Also noticed that King Diamond's vocals through out this fourteen track opus is really good. Well done. A definite should-have."

What a wicked album

"This cd and the story made me feel uncomfortable and uneasy but it was due to the fact I was so into the story and the wicked music. I haven't heard all of albums yet but so far I like this one the best. The title track is greatness and LOA House has to be the most incredible song from the King I've heard yet. If you want to listen to King Diamond and don't know where to start, I'd recommend starting here with this great album."
