"The Graveyard" story involves an insane asylum escapee and a mayor who molests his own child. It’s B-movie fare, but King Diamond makes it come alive. He imbues multiple characters with multiple voices and single handedly gives the story atmosphere. King puts us inside the “Black Hill Sanitarium”; we practically feel the narrator’s fists pounding on walls, trying to escape. It’s a vocal tour de force. This record is for diehards — but King Diamond fans are all diehards. With King Diamond, there is no in between.
