More about 'Return Of The Vampire'

"Return of the Vampire" is a captivating anthology that serves as a time capsule into Mercyful Fate's early years. This compilation features a collection of rare and unreleased tracks that showcase the band's formidable prowess during the embryonic stages of their career. With King Diamond's haunting vocals leading the charge, these demos capture the raw energy and passion that would later define their signature sound. The album opens with "Burning the Cross," a relentless track that sets the tone for what's to come. Each song is a testament to the band's dedication to their craft, as they experiment with dark themes and intricate compositions.

Recorded in various sessions between 1981 and 1982, this compilation includes tracks like "Curse of the Pharaohs" and "Death Kiss," which were pivotal in shaping Mercyful Fate's legacy. Fans will appreciate the inclusion of alternate versions and early renditions of future classics like "A Corpse Without Soul." The album not only provides insights into their musical evolution but also offers a nostalgic journey for long-time followers. As part of Metal Blade Records' Classic Series!, this release is an essential addition for collectors and metal enthusiasts alike.
