Exclusive limited edition white vinyl reissue of this King Diamond classic!
King Diamond is well known for his themes of the occult and demonic stories, as well as his drive towards atmospheric horror scenarios and changing masks. King Diamond is one of the most outstanding personalities of today's metal scene. With Mercyful Fate and King Diamond he wrote metal-history and is an important part of the scene for decades. Since 1986 King has released many classic horror metal albums, which because of their outstanding storylines and musical variety are unique in the hard rock scene.
King Diamond's sixth studio album 'The Spider's Lullabye' was released in 1995. Unlike most other King Diamond albums which are full concept albums, 'The Spider's Lullabye' is only a partial concept album; the last four songs tell a single story about a character named Harry and his struggle with arachnophobia, while the first half consists of standalone tracks with various horror themes ("Moonlight" is influenced by the film Village of the Damned). The album marked the debut for guitarist Herb Simonsen, bassist Chris Estes, and drummer Darrin Anthony in the King Diamond solo band. Longtime guitarist Andy LaRocque also contributed.
