On June 5th, Metal Blade Records will continue to work their way through King Diamond's discography with their ongoing series of reissues.This time, however, Mercyful Fate will be receiving some love with new CD and LP versions of the classic albums Don’t Break the Oath, Melissa, and their 1982 self-titled EP!
The vinyl editions feature spined sleeves with an insert and download card; the CDs contain a mini-LP CD-insert with a small fold-out poster.
"These are not remasters. These are the albums as they were originally done in the old days from the original production masters," King Diamond previously stated, "They retain all the original dynamics that were captured at the time. It’s very exciting to present these to fans as they were originally released."
