‘Melissa,’ by Mercyful Fate
Rating
Musical Feel
Song / Album Composition
“Evil,” starts things off with a bang. Tearing through the great and the brutal. A song that set the scene for an entire genre. Brilliantly executed and carved. A statement.
“Curse of The Pharaohs,” brings the light to the dark, turning through the escapade, and hitting the strands of time.
“Into The Coven,” haunts the edges of light, shimmering through the great beyond and delivering something bone chillingly haunting. A terrific sight for all.
“At The Sound Of The Demon Bell,” grooves and moves with power. A furnace that drives the elements toward the battlements of time.
“Black Funeral,” slowly walks the great and the back. A song that shimmers through to the darkness.
“Satan’s Fall,” hits the right notes. A banger that gives the growing sense of chaos and carnage a name and a breath. Full furnace.
“Melissa,” is slow, haunting and epic.
This was a genre defining record that has been remastered and is out now via Metal Blade Records.
