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, The Powers of the Occult what ever name you want to use. . 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 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. And that’s why I say that these powers of darkness are always welcome in my home. It’s as if the powers of the unknown came and said ‘Hey, we will stay with you and help you.’ That’s what I feel.” When I almost died during surgery I saw my body below as a demon tried to enter my soul and I had to fight him! These things are very real! 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. My wife will not look in our mirror in fear something will come out. 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 know these powers are good because they saved my life many times!
I have NEVER heard any Satanist cop to admiting half the bible is acceptable. Just proves what an intelligent dude the King is. He's perfectly right as well. No one can argue *some* of the truths in there. You would be a fool and in denial if you did. Hail whatever you believe in.

God did come to earth and showed himself...he was JESUS CHRIST in the flesh. God became flesh, a fleshly man. That very flesh was called Jesus Christ. Jesus became a fleshly sacrifice for sinners, mankind. Gods judgement came against Jesus on the cross. We live under Jesus's blood that was shed for our sins. Jesus stands in the middle of us and the judgement of God.
He has a point. Satan in the Jewish text is the accuser; kind of like that asshole district attorney trying to prosecute you. Here's another thought. Why would God create an adversary? 🤔
Really wish I knew about this guy a long time ago - I used to sit in the dark for hours when I was 12 listening to Ozzy Osbourne; if I had these albums, probably I wouldn't have ever come out since haha Also; he's not a theistic Satanist. Satanism is for goofballs, but back then was a powerful stage gimmick. The Anton Lavey guy was just a decadent jew. King wanted to explore the unknow through his art, but with a serious grudge against Christianity: not believing in an actual Devil.

only a handful of king or mercyful fate songs are that melodic..not too hummable...there are some real gems...sleepless nights,uninvited guest,give me your soul...you wanna be satanic..all well and good but make it easily understood,melodic and just as beguiling as christianity.
The first two MF albums are solid. The rest are patchy. In the Shadows is my least fave by far, but the Melissa continuation is amazing. I have to explore more of the KD stuff. I never realised he had so many releases.
I agree. They never regained full balance after disbanding post Don't Break The Oath. The greatest metal album of all time in my opinion. I saw the tour as well
Deuteronomy 30: 15 “See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil. If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God[a] that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules,[b] then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away to worship other gods and serve them, I declare to you today, that you shall surely perish. You shall not live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to enter and possess. I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying his voice and holding fast to him, for he is your life and length of days, that you may dwell in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”
@xXxSaintHydexXx There's many different forms of Satanism. Some use him as a deity while others like LaVeyan Satanism use him as a metaphor of sorts without actually worshiping him. You're on the right track though. Those who practice "Blood drinking" and all that other cliche' stuff are probably newbs who are trying to look demonic and cool. Lucifer and Satan are the same Person, Lucifer adopted the name Satan after he fell from God's graces.
Christian Solorzano Leave him alone. I have seen way too many people leave that god shit and they are finally happy and have love and they deserve it as does King
Read the Book of Job. The Devil speaks to God as if they are colleagues! Satan tells God if he fucks up Job's life Job will not love him anymore and God takes up Satan's challenge! of course it is all myth not true.
He doesn’t believe in God but he believes in Satan that’s a form of a God how does that make sense Satan allows everything bad to happen on this earth just like God does so why would you follow certain how does that make sense
One of the smartest answers on the subject
agree
he is a good speaker he nails everyone in Discussion about this subject.
all hail king diamond \m/

Excellent interview as usual. I would LOVE to sit down with the King for a wee chat, the friendliest Satanist you could ever meet. Great.

This is so great...old footage of the real Mercyful Fate!!!!!....thanks!!!
I have so much respect for King Diamond for being a real Satanist unlike all the other fakes in Metal
To be a metalhead it's not necessary to be satanist
@@mouadhetfield1902 But he is one thus I respect him more. Others are fake

What year was this interview?
I'd say 80-81

Love how he explains to the dude horror music is just a form of scary entertainment like the horror movie Halloween.

King is a satanist and still has experiences with ritual magic and ghosts and spirits from the supernatural world
Satanism is a philosophy of speaking for yourself and speaking freely, believe in yourself and take no bullshit.

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 know these powers are good because they saved my life many times!
God did come to earth and showed himself...he was JESUS CHRIST in the flesh. God became flesh, a fleshly man. That very flesh was called Jesus Christ. Jesus became a fleshly sacrifice for sinners, mankind. Gods judgement came against Jesus on the cross. We live under Jesus's blood that was shed for our sins. Jesus stands in the middle of us and the judgement of God.
Yea you don't have any proof of that and neither does anyone else
@@DevilSaturn966Youre right ... and thats where faith and belief steps in.
@@markshaver3814 you guys need to learn the definition of those words cause all you Christians present it as fact
@@markshaver3814 you literally said " god did" that's not Faith based that's you presenting it as fact
@@markshaver3814 everything you wrote up there is being presented as fact
Not Belief nor Faith
He has a point. Satan in the Jewish text is the accuser; kind of like that asshole district attorney trying to prosecute you. Here's another thought. Why would God create an adversary? 🤔
I know right
whats the song thats playing at the beginning?:]
Too late but it's Gypsy
@undertakerdeese No, he's a Heavy Metal Musician.
King is a satanist
Really wish I knew about this guy a long time ago - I used to sit in the dark for hours when I was 12 listening to Ozzy Osbourne; if I had these albums, probably I wouldn't have ever come out since haha
Also; he's not a theistic Satanist. Satanism is for goofballs, but back then was a powerful stage gimmick. The Anton Lavey guy was just a decadent jew. King wanted to explore the unknow through his art, but with a serious grudge against Christianity: not believing in an actual Devil.
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, The Powers of the Occult what ever name you want to use. . 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 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.
And that’s why I say that these powers of darkness are always welcome in my home. It’s as if the powers of the unknown came and said ‘Hey, we will stay with you and help you.’ That’s what I feel.” When I almost died during surgery I saw my body below as a demon tried to enter my soul and I had to fight him! These things are very real!
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. My wife will not look in our mirror in fear something will come out.

Maybe you should go ahead and do so instead of wasting my time with such a stupid childish question.
@Æ N I Ǝ M A I am right though which makes me smart
Hail Satan!
only a handful of king or mercyful fate songs are that melodic..not too hummable...there are some real gems...sleepless nights,uninvited guest,give me your soul...you wanna be satanic..all well and good but make it easily understood,melodic and just as beguiling as christianity.
The first two MF albums are solid. The rest are patchy. In the Shadows is my least fave by far, but the Melissa continuation is amazing. I have to explore more of the KD stuff. I never realised he had so many releases.
I agree. They never regained full balance after disbanding post Don't Break The Oath. The greatest metal album of all time in my opinion. I saw the tour as well
Deuteronomy 30: 15
“See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil. If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God[a] that I command you today, by loving the Lord your God, by walking in his ways, and by keeping his commandments and his statutes and his rules,[b] then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. But if your heart turns away, and you will not hear, but are drawn away to worship other gods and serve them, I declare to you today, that you shall surely perish. You shall not live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to enter and possess. I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying his voice and holding fast to him, for he is your life and length of days, that you may dwell in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.”
I made a comment about God did come to earth, his name was Jesus Christ.
Read the satanic bible. It is much better
What the hell did you smoke? Like Lemmy of Motörhead once said: "There is no God and there is no Devil, I'm responsible for everything I do"
That is what King and satanism say as well
it is I DENY!
@NoSamba Gypsy
...also Satan mimics God in every way. Gods people speaks in tongues and Satans people speaks in tongues. God has a holiday and Satan has a holiday.
Hail Satan King!

@PRHILL9696 Mocking God Is Fun :)
Grow up Dude
yes it is
mocking god is a lot of fun!
@xXxSaintHydexXx There's many different forms of Satanism. Some use him as a deity while others like LaVeyan Satanism use him as a metaphor of sorts without actually worshiping him. You're on the right track though. Those who practice "Blood drinking" and all that other cliche' stuff are probably newbs who are trying to look demonic and cool.
Lucifer and Satan are the same Person, Lucifer adopted the name Satan after he fell from God's graces.
King Diamond seems like an interesting man but he has his idea of God all messed up. I hope one day he finds it in his heart that God loves him.
Nah. Let him be himself it's why we have his music today :)
Christian Solorzano Leave him alone. I have seen way too many people leave that god shit and they are finally happy and have love and they deserve it as does King
What God?
Hail King! Hail Satan!
Burn demon
@@ZachhhOnRUclips Make me?
Hail Satan
Read the Book of Job. The Devil speaks to God as if they are colleagues! Satan tells God if he fucks up Job's life Job will not love him anymore and God takes up Satan's challenge! of course it is all myth not true.
He doesn’t believe in God but he believes in Satan that’s a form of a God how does that make sense Satan allows everything bad to happen on this earth just like God does so why would you follow certain how does that make sense
That is not what he said
You believe in God King,he created Satan :)
Man created god
