      but his get up is fucking dated...not classy...old ass dated.
      I bet Kerry is feeling like you when you talk to a guy who has a splat of mustard on his face...and you are trying to politely direct the interaction towards that fact...but after a while just give up and act as if everything ist as it is supposed to be.

      Quotes from famous musician and High ranking Church of Satan member and very close friend to Anton LaVey - King Diamond "Satanism is about the Powers of the Unknown. I have had hundreds of strange supernatural experiences with the occult, the other side, the beyond, whatever you want to call it that proves there is a spiritual world that can cross over into our world. Satanism is a life philosophy so within it you can have your own religion, any religion you want. Or take from various religions or your own whatever makes you happy. I have my own beliefs and Religiously Satan on a spiritual level stands for the Powers of Darkness, the Powers of the Unknown which are always all around us at all times. This is the best way to talk about these Spirits and Powers. Not a god or a devil as both of them are christian god's and that has nothing to do with Satanism. Of course there are different types of satanism. And I never wear gold as that is not healthy for you!
      Must need something bad and use that during ritual then you might be able to get help from these powers I believe are all around us. But that is only if they like you. I do not believe in the two christians beings god or the Devil, I believe in the Powers of the Unknown, Powers of Darkness. I have done Satanic Rituals and have seen and heard spirits.
      Some people like to call "Them" God or the Devil or whatever, but I do not believe there is all one good and one all bad power. I believe there are many, many different Spirits and Powers that exist and that they are not good or evil, like humans they have both inside of them and I always treat them with the highest amount of respect and feel that respect returned by Them. It is massive mutual respect. Not Power, but Powers, Big difference. I believe we are one and the same me and these Unknown Forces. You really have to respect them for the incredible power they have. I believe they come to those who they feel can handle it and who will be faithful believers." In the song "Welcome Princess of Hell" you hear me singing to these spirits and powers and they sing back to me. They came to me to let me know they are here for me on my journey and that they are behind me and that they wish me good luck so I see them as my protectors almost like guardian angels. We all live several lives so that our powers/souls can grow in order to reach a higher plane and join with something greater. Our powers live in a human shell several times that will enable us to go on to a new life form a higher plane of being or join one day with a larger greater force. But 99 percent of the population live by the Satanic Philosophy whether they know it or not. As Anton LaVey even told me that Satanism is simply a life philosophy and NOT a religion. Satanism is basically Humanism. Satanism is based on logic and things that are proven which is why it could never be a religion as religion is based on things that cannot be proven.
      Personally I do not use electrical lighting at home and on my Satanic Altar or in the studio when I record vocals, only black candles as electrical lighting drives away the spirits and I love having them near me. People who see Satanism from the Christian view point are not treating these powers with respect and that is very dangerous. I once actually summoned a spirit in order to prove they are real to a girl who doubted and Satan came.
      In Satanism you are your own God. LaVey felt and I agree that we are all individuals born with different needs and views and so he felt everyone should make up their own mind about what to believe in spiritually if anything at all which is why he left a huge void in the Satanic Bible when it came to spirituality or any kind of religious beliefs and so within the Satanic Philosophy a person can still be a Christian if that fulfills their spiritual needs. Satan also means the Opposite, Inverted, Reversed which is why we wear the Satanic crosses and pentagrams. Satan means the opposite of religion. Satanism is living out your feelings and instincts without feeling it is a sin, enjoy yourself while you are here now while you can and have your own individual beliefs. One thing I consider almost mandatory though is believing there are powers around us. And you can use these powers to help yourself or those you care about. Or throw these powers at people in a negative way. I am not religious at all but you can say I am spiritual due to my experiences and beliefs. The Satanic bible is not really a bible because a bible is for religion so it should be called a book of philosophy instead. Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
      When people see the word ‘Satan’ they see only negative. Satan is not only bad, to me. It represents both sides of everything. I don’t believe in the Christian devil.
      “Christianity has both God and the devil. I believe there is neither of these two. I believe in the powers of the unknown, which I have experienced many times. I know that rituals work. I don’t do them often because you can easily misuse them. They will get back at you if you don’t respect them. Rituals can channel the forces that surround us all the time but I respect the powers and will not abuse them in any way. The Satanic Bible is 70 percent Philosophy and 30 percent magic. Satan is the power of the universe. Satan to me is the Powers of Darkness, not a man with horns. Some people think Satanism is what the Christian church portrays it to be. If you are as bad and as evil as you can be and you think that’s Satanism then you have become part of the Christian religion. That is Christian Satanism which is not what I am about at all.

    I've met both of these guys and they are some of the coolest people on earth, especially King Diamond. When I met him he was the most polite, articulate and inviting person. He loves what he does. He appreciates the fans and will take all the time in the world to answer your questions. Seeing Slayer for the first time at The Big 4 concert with Anthrax, Megadeth and Metallica and that was a real treat and then a few years later seeing them up close and personal on Motorhead's Motorboat Cruise was even more amazing, but I remember seeing Mercyful Fate years before when In The Shadows was released. It was a small intimate crowd in a tiny venue. It was one of my favorite shows ever.

    This is how I got into King Diamond and Mercyful Fate myself I saw a picture of him in a rock magazine and it blew my mind I had to hear him. I bought Fatal Portrait and was blown away. Then when I heard Melissa and Don't Break the Oath by Mercyful Fate that was it, I have been a fan ever since. There is supposedly a new cd coming from Mercyful Fate with at least four of the orginal members I know I cannot wait to hear it. Cool interviews. Stay heavy. \m/

Abigail is one of my favorite albums of all time. If I was only able to listen to one album for the rest of my life, it would be Abigail, hands down!

    I was at Replay Records in Stockton CA, 1995 when I found "Don't Break the Oath." I had never heard of Mercyful Fate before then but the album looked amazing. I checked the back and saw the ere black and white photos of the band, noticed they had two lead guitarists and just felt that I had found something special.

    I've been listening to King Diamond and Mercyful Fate for years, since I was 14, 15 years old, and it's the first time ever I see him speaking on interview. It's so weird how gentle and calm he is in comparison to his work. I absolutely love everything this guy does. Into the Unknown, The Graveyard and Abigal 2 are my all time favorites. The Legend of the Headless Rider is one of the coolest songs in metal for me. It's so creative the way the two guitarrist work the arrangments. I wonder what Hank Shermann is doing lately.
