When I first heard King Diamond’s concept album Them, I was completely hooked. Those different singing voices, some of them ridiculously high and theatrical, really push you. It’s not for everyone – a lot of people bounce off the falsetto and the dramatic delivery – but the real fans swear by this shit.
Back then I was just blown away by the whole creepy story and the way King switches between those voices. I have to admit Them still hits harder for me than most of the albums that came after. There’s something special about that atmosphere.
And of course…
