This is a killer deal........2007-02-15

I just got both this double album and the other one with Don't Break the Oath/Return of the Vampire. I think it is an awesome deal. Melissa is a great album and so is Don't Break the Oath. The albums that come bundled with them are okay but not as good. The Beginning has some rather bad points, but hey, if you were to give this to me for free (which it practically is once you have paid the full price for Melissa) I would take it for sure. I think anything King Diamond and Mercyful Fate have done is a collector's item. That is how much respect I have for King Diamond's work. Even his rather sketchy early demo stuff is kind of cool in it's own way. But if you really want a highly polished and professional product get King Diamond's "Them"/Conspiracy. Those two albums were made later and in my opinion really kick total you-know-what. If you don't know anything about this music but you like Black Sabbath and aren't afraid of "evil" lyrics, you might turn out to be a KD/MF fan just like me. This is a killer deal. Five star rating.

halloween is the night! the legend says, the ghost will rise.......2004-10-26

mercyful fates debut album and e.p. all in one cd set, could anything be better? its definatly worth getting this edition of "melissa" and "the begining" because fate cds are 20 bucks a piece, but this will only cost you 15 bucks.now,on to the album.

the mercyful fate e.p. which is contained on the "begining" cd is very early, rough sounding, patchy fate, but awesome non the less despite the production. the songs "nuns have no fun",
"corpse w/ out a soul" "doomed by the living dead" and "devils eyes" were originally recorded in 1982 and came out on mercyful fate's first e.p., songs like "nuns have no fun" and "corpse w/ out a soul" show you that fate was not something your mom would be listening to. "melissa" which was released in 1983, fates first album, has the songs "evil", "curse of the pharaohs", "in to the coven","at the sound of the demon bell", "black funeral", "satans fall" and "melissa". this album is one of my all time favorite's. you should try to go out and find this one, you should make it one of the few metal albums to own.
the song "evil" is just so kick @$$ and a perfect way to start of an album. the whole album flows together, like every song is related to each other. definatly the scaryest thing you will listen to.

You need this CD!!!.......2003-10-10

If you consider yourself a metalhead then you absolutely need these two albums on one CD! The music is a little Black Sabbath, a little Judas Priest but there is something more here. There is a feeling that you get when you listen to early Mercyful Fate, something that cannot be explained, you just have to listen to the music to understand. Another thing that sets this band apart from others like Black Sabbath and Judas Priest is King Diamond's voice! Ozzy's voice is okay, and I do believe that Halford's is amazing but King Diamond is a God on the mic! The tracks sound amazing and you can't beat the price for these two great albums. My only complaint is that they should have added lyrics and pictures, but if your a fan of true metal, power metal, black metal or NWOBHM you'll love this.
