King Diamond, At the Graves - A Classical Musician’s First Listen and Reaction

My First Listen experience with King Diamond was really … different! Although I never listened to this kind of music before (you might laugh) it reminded me of some Classical Music pieces! I have to say that it was really fun (although sinister at times) to listen to King Diamond, and I think it does a great job for its purpose.
