Kanon Madness and Heavy Metal Greg have uploaded video footage of KING DIAMOND‘s June 27 performance at San Manuel Amphitheater in Devore, California as part of this year’s Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. Check it out below.
“Dreams Of Horror”, a 2xCD collection of KING DIAMOND songs, newly enhanced into ultimate editions by King Diamond and Andy La Rocque themselves, sold around 1,200 copies in the United States in its first week of release.
Released last November, “Dreams Of Horror” is the only “best-of” album covering the band’s entire career. King Diamond and Andy La Rocque meticulously mastered and enhanced these 23 songs into the ultimate editions, chosen by the band from both the Roadrunner and Metal Blade catalogs.
Swedish bassist Pontus Egberg (THE POODLES, LION’S SHARE, ZAN CLAN) recently joined KING DIAMOND following the departure of Hal Patino.
King, 59, whose real name is Kim Bendix Petersen, underwent open-heart triple-bypass surgery in November 2010. He has since completed his cardiac rehabilitation program and has stopped smoking entirely, changed his diet and is getting regular exercise.
