Background information über 'Melissa'

Mercyful Fate's 1983 debut album "Melissa" is a cornerstone of the early metal scene, showcasing the band's unique blend of satanic themes and intricate musicianship. The album is notable for its dynamic compositions that weave together fast-paced riffs with melodic interludes, creating an atmosphere both haunting and exhilarating. Tracks like "Satan's Fall" and "Evil" exemplify this synergy by juxtaposing King Diamond's soaring falsetto against Hank Shermann’s blistering guitar work.

What sets "Melissa" apart is its raw production quality, which captures the energy and intensity of Mercyful Fate's live performances. This reissue maintains the original integrity of the sound by preserving those elements that made it an instant cult classic among metal enthusiasts. King Diamond himself has emphasized that these are not remastered versions but rather direct transfers from the original production masters, ensuring fans experience the music as it was initially intended.
