Our Take

Hold on to your pentagrams, because Mercyful Fate's "The Beginning" is about to transport you straight to the depths of heavy metal hell. This reissue of the Danish band's debut EP is a sinister symphony of demonic vocals, shredding guitars, and thunderous drums that will have you headbanging like it's 1982 all over again. Frontman King Diamond's spine-chilling wails are as haunting as ever, pulling you into a world of dark sorcery and macabre storytelling. Tracks like "Doomed by the Living Dead" and "A Corpse Without Soul" are a masterclass in metal mayhem, with blistering riffs and spine-tingling solos that will leave you spellbound. While the production may sound a bit rough around the edges by today's standards, it only adds to the album's raw and unholy charm. Each track oozes with a menacing energy that is impossible to resist, making it the perfect soundtrack for any black mass or late-night cemetery stroll. So, if you're in the mood for some old-school devilry and a heavy dose of occult theatrics, Mercyful Fate's "The Beginning" is the album for you. Just make sure to keep your crucifix handy – you never know what demons may be lurking in the shadows.
