King Diamond is a Danish heavy metal band formed in 1985 which currently consists of King Diamond, Andy LaRocque, Mike Wead, Matt Thompson and Pontus Edberg.
King Diamond, Michael Denner and Timi Hansen were all originally members of another heavy metal band Mercyful Fate yet they decided to leave the project and pursue King Diamond as a full time commitment. Their debut album 'Fatal Portrait' was released in 1985 which gained one chart position in Sweden.
However after this release the band saw continually increasing success on the US Billboard charts with albums including 'Them' and 'Abigail' selling over 50,000 copies each. The band has been known for its constant line up changes, over fifteen musicians have been part of King Diamond over the years and the two consistent members are vocalist King Diamond and guitarist Andy LaRocque.
By 2001 the band established a core line up of vocalist King Diamond, guitarist Andy LaRocque, guitarist Mike Wead, bassist Hal Patino and drummer Matt Thompson and have continued to tour and record as this outfit. The band is infamous with concept albums and taking their death metal sound to innovative places. Their stage shows often include theatrics and face make up to add to the overall atmosphere of their music. In 2010 the band almost ceased to exist after its namesake and vocalist King Diamond was rushed to the hospital following several serious heart attacks. After undergoing surgery he has made a full recovery and is back performing with the band.
Leia maisTo the Morgue we go. The minute the lights went down and King Diamond hit the stage, we knew this would be a real Halloween treat! As a preliminary to the 11th annual Rock and Shock fest, King delivered the goods and very well too. The concert began with a stage setup reminiscent of a gated cemetery. Actresses in the roles of either old or pregnant women enhanced the effects against a backdrop of screaming guitars and thumping drums. A heavily made up King meanwhile alternated between high pitched singing and guttural growls, the latter delivery of which bore some resemblance to Alice Cooper. I cannot mention titles of songs performed as this artist is relatively new to me and thus not my area of expertise. However, the metal genre has been a favourite of mine for most of my life. The creepy gothic props lent well to the music played, thus fitting the atmosphere to a T! One part I particularly liked was the number toward the end where the old woman came out in a wheelchair and King and a man on the role of a mad scientist put her in a coffin brought onstage and proceeded to have her do a disappearing act. Equally memorable was the woman who during another song, arrived onstage carrying a silver platter. Upside down crosses and Baphomet logos complimented the scene in question well and seemed ona way to allude to old movies such as Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? or Rosemary's Baby.
A King Diamond show is nothing short of theatrical. The sets, lighting and the famously ever-present make up worn by the Danish heavy metal singer lend an almost operatic quality to a King Diamond concert. Every element of the staging and set list has been thought out to provide each member of the audience with an unforgettable night.
Opening with “The Candle” in his concert last month was a fantastic way to get the crowd going. It’s opening is reminiscent of an 80s slasher film with its taunting repetitive opening bars. King Diamond’s falsetto on top of this was a sure-fire way to get the whole audience pumped for the evening of heavy metal awesomeness that lay before them.
Tracks like “The Puppet Master” and “Eye of the Witch” were standout parts of the night for me. King Diamond’s iconic sound, which has been associated with legendary groups such as Metallica, is absolutely unbelievable live. He hits those high notes every time and injects every song with raw, unrelenting energy. This guy is a legend – go see him.
Thank you Songkick* for providing the floor tickets for the Warfield show when other outlets could not. The show was organized, on-time, and the sound was at the 9.5 volume, what one wants at a metal show. Exodus opened for King Diamond and played a modest but strong set of their best work. King Diamond did not disappoint the masses inside with his showmanship and voice quality. Both were outstanding. Right out of the gate GrandMa was rolled onto the stage and helped out of her wheelchair by Diamond. The stage was well designed allowing for Diamond to go up top the band to gesture to the crowd with his upside-down bones cross connected to his mic. Fellow band-mates wielded their axes soundly and precisely. Everything you would expect from quality musicians backing up the legend King Diamond. Rock on ! ~D&B~
I saw them at the Fillmore in Philadelphia. The venue was great. The opening band, Exodus, rocked as usual. The venue was almost filled to capacity an Kind Diamond had a big following.
KD's stage performance was amazing. Not only they had theatricals with additional actors on stage, they were very well rehearsed and performed as if you were listening to a recording.
All band members had great stage presence and overall it was a memorable and entertaining show. I especially liked the actress that was dressing up and acting accordingly for each song. There were hooded characters carrying a casket, in which there was a doll. Decorations and lighting were also dynamic and complemented the band's awesome musical performance.
The King sounded absolutely great. I've been a fan since the 80's, and you couldn't tell a difference between his voice from last night and a recording from 30 years ago. My wife is not what you would call a fan, but she loved the show too. Great stage set, spooky "institute" backdrop, and a couple of actors to play various roles during about half of the songs. They even performed a new song (the first new material in 12 years, released just last week) that sounded great; I can't wait for the new album. Amazingly, even after all these years, the King is absolutely still in his prime.
I've been waiting years to see King Diamond live in concert! He is one of my favorite singers EVER! This concert was hands down my very favorite concert. Anyone whose a fan would not be disappointed, it's everything you'd expect and more! I will definitely be seeing them again if they come back to my area. \m/
The Abigail Show was worh the wait! I've been waiting since 87 for that experience and it paid off!! Kings voice sounded perfect like it did over 20 years ago. The stage was amazing, the band played incredible and the sound was awesome!!
Fantastic show! The Tabernacle is such a great venue for live music and the stage was the perfect size for all the props. KD's voice was perfect and the band was amazing. I give 5 stars for this show...I'm ready to go again. :)
One hell of a show. Abigail was performed to perfection. Don't miss this show. The sound was unbelievable along with great theatrics. King Diamond always delivers a good hour and a half.
Fucking awesome. ***** 5 stars. His voice still sounds just as good as ever and his show was spectacular. Can't wait to catch him again, hopefully sooner. And closer to where I live.
