King Diamond is by far one of the smartest people I've ever listened to. He's got a degree in chemistry, he's a great singer (I mean, he really knows music when he sings, unlike the majority of vocalists who only growl, burp or yell in the microphone) and great story teller. Fuck yes
I've met several celebrities, even befriended a punk rock legend, but King was the most down to Earth one I've ever met. I was amazed at how cool he was to fans.
The story line in Abigail was a bit confusing. The story line for "Them" and "Conspiracy" was incredible. I can still read those two lyric sheets and treat it like a great short story.
so cool to hear king explain the abigail story i had it on cassette back in the day & while the songs were fucking killer i had no idea what the lyrics were
"If they only knew" Well I could save all of this & the quotes to show Abigail...but then but then some things go without saying Good or bad.Voodoo happens.So watch what you wish for,more power.
I love the Abigail album and have heard it hundreds of times, and know all the lyrics, but I have never given the story a second thought. To put it bluntly, I have no idea what it's about. I just can't grasp stories that aren't ultra-straightforwardly put to me. In video games alike, I always almost completely disregard the story.
spiderdragon1969 but the weird thing is, he doesn't view Satan as a religious being, just an entity. that's almost the same as ignoring god's existence
The King is evil! But we all have a little evil in us.. The King has more good than evil so that is good... but without the evil he would have never been who and what he is.. a master of his craft- Kids could spot posers a mile away back in those days when it came to the Rock & Roll.. I know that I could
Never thought that much about the stillborn baby thing from Abigail. Come to think of it, King had tried that idea out before with "Night of the Unborn" on the Oath record. Babies that never got a chance to live now get REVENGE! lol.

Wow, back then I bet King would have never thought that "Abigail" would be such a world-wide huge album, it's fkn classic metal to the bone!!! 🤘🤘
Great horror movie concept as well.
That Rebecca chick don't know shit about metal
One of the best albums ever!
This and THEM should have been made into movies. I’ve said it for years.

King is not a good story teller. He's fantastic!
I agree and one of the nicest people I've ever met!!!
He seems like a very down to earth man with a lot of class.
King Diamond looks so metal here , this would be a great Judas priest album cover.
Such a nice dude, always a good interview...I would say God bless him but well...
lol
SATAN HIMSELF IS GOD
I totally believe that "Abigail" would make a fantastic horror movie!
"It's good too be the King!"
He is so kind
Love King's glasses!
Me too!!
Tommy Hansen was in King Diamond ? WOW.....now he is one of the most sought after Producers in ROCK.
Rik Nel Actually was TIM Hansen
*TIMMY HANSEN*

Very good interview
I love King Diamond :3
Me too!!
Can you imagine King Diamond and Stephen King work together..
2 kings
so cool to hear king explain the abigail story i had it on cassette back in the day & while the songs were fucking killer i had no idea what the lyrics were
@greggers420 and melts hearts. I mean, just his song Black Horsemen makes me cry.
King played football? Cool!
Abigail is interesting as there may actually be historical fact similar to The Eye.
The glasses give the time period away: the 80's.
I wear them now
FATAL MASTERPIECE
King looks like a black and white overlay on a color background.
Rip Timi Hansen
🤘

Grande diamond
