Melissa is one of the best debut albums ever. Denner/ Shermann guitar duo a close second behind Downing/Tipton of Judas Priest.

@metadeth578 9 күн бұрын

Denner/ Shermann and Murray/Smith are close as the best guitar duo as you can get!

Timi Hansen on bass RIP. Kim Ruzz on drums. Left the music business after the first two Mercyful Fate albums. Michael Denner and Hank Shermann on guitars. They have released other albums together. Force Of Evil, Zoser Mez and Denner/Shermann. Today they doesn't talk after Denner wasn't invited to tour with Mercyful Fate. They of course started out together in Brats. An old Danish punk band that turned into the first Danish metal band. Shermann was an original member of the punk version. After their 1980 Album they hired King Diamond as vocalist. After the record company thought they were too heavy the band broke up and Mercyful Fate was formed

The Shermann/Denner guitar duo was one of the top duos of the '80s (and there were a TON of dual lead guitar bands in the, frickin', '80s!!) 🤘🤘🔥! I LOATHED the lyrical content, but: the music was SO incredible (and so incredibly UNDERGROUND!!), that it was, simply, indelible! [Let's just say that: fewer people knew who Mercyful [sic] Fate were, in 1983, than knew who MetallicA were (and permit me to assure you!!!: In 1983??? If you were a MetallicA fan??? ...everybody KNEW that you WERE and, simultaneously, NO-ONE knew who THEY were!). The name of Mercyful Fate was, effectively, a shibboleth for: the deep, metal underground and the dark corners of "cool," which were UTTERLY invisible from the middle of the road! 🤘🤘 Melissa and Don't Break The Oath were FRIGHTENING when they came out! 🤘🤘

Oh and I wouldn't call it another form of entertainment. Some of these guys, like Ghost, Slayer bands, King Diamond and Glenn Danzig are heavily into satanic energies and spirits. Don't mess with these and you'll be fine.

@waregl72 4 ай бұрын

One thing you can always count on in a Mercyful Fate song is there will be change ups in the beat and feel to the song throughout. King's vocals are jarring when you first hear them, but after you listen a couple times you get how good they are. I was a bigger fan of the Don't Break the Oath album, but those 1st albums were great.

Metallica are good friends with Mercyful Fate. They got to know each other because while Mercyful Fate was recording this album Metallica was also in the same studio recording their debut album. They would pop in on each other to see how they were doing. Also Mercyful Fate and Metallica's drummer, Lars Ulrich, are both Danish.

Go with a track from their/his most successful album 'Abigail' (under the monicker King Diamond, not Mercyful Fate)....either the title track Abigail, A Mansion In Darkness (amazing drums) or the brilliant album closer 'Black Horsemen'

...First band I ever saw use "corpse paint" (well: King Diamond. Everyone else remained "make-up-less."). ...I'm not saying "they started it,**" but ...I would bet that a lot of people who, later, used it or favored it ...encountered it via Mercyful Fate first. 🤘🤘 **That would, actually, probably, be: Arthur Brown [from: Crazy World Of Arthur Brown] and Alice Cooper (slightly later). 🤷🤷 [Best I can remember] (if we're gonna talk "history of corpse paint" - which, actually: we weren't GOING to! 🤷 🤪😋)

You opened up a whole new can of worms on this one! You want fast, relentless metal? Overkill 'Elimination' should be on your list...Bobby Gustafson is a relentless shred machine. When he left the band, they had to replace him with 2 guitarists. Mercyful Fate tracks that deserve a listen? Curse Of The Pharaohs, Melissa, Dangerous Meeting, Omens, Gypsy, Into The Coven - and of course the later Abigail album from King! Too many to list!

Actually enjoyed this more than I expected, though parts did seem a little disjointed to me--like they were lobbing every grenade in their arsenal into this one song. Will be interesting to hear another song by them. And, yes, quite an unusual vocal range.
