Band Line Up 2013

In August of 2008, KING DIAMOND joined Metallica on
stage at Ozzfest in Dallas to perform the Mercyful Fate medley made famous from
the Garage, Inc. album. Additionally, KING DIAMOND was featured alongside
Motorhead’s Lemmy Kilmister as a playable character in Guitar Hero: Metallica
in 2009.

By 2012, KING DIAMOND was prepared to return to the
stage for a select number of shows. The band’s triumphant return to the stage
were the highlights of both the Hellfest and Sweden Rock festivals in France
and Sweden. Fans at these festivals were treated to the largest and most
involved stage production in the band’s storied history. Horror concepts from
multiple albums were used in the décor; fans can rest-assured that this show
will only get larger and more impressive at future performances.

KING DIAMOND’s 30+ year musical career is one of the
most storied in history of heavy metal, but the tale is not yet over. The most
recent release, 2007′s Grammy nominated album Give Me Your Soul…Please, stands
as one of the most critically-acclaimed albums in an already iconic
discography. Future albums will feature entirely new horror stories, concepts,
haunting orchestrations, and the band’s signature brand of heavy metal from the
mind of KING DIAMOND and the talented group of musicians in tow: Andy La
Rocque, Mike Wead, Hal Patino, and Matt Thompson. Many more albums, tours, and
ventures lay ahead.
