Label : PHD / Metal Blade
Release : 27-2-2026
Listening to Them is less about playing an album and more about entering a carefully crafted horror narrative. King Diamond constructs a chilling story filled with madness, hidden truths and unsettling twists, all carried by the music itself. The shifting tempos, dramatic vocal delivery and eerie melodies work together to pull the listener deeper into the storyline. It is a record that rewards attention and draws you into its dark atmosphere.
This 2026 reissue on white vinyl offers a striking contrast between visual simplicity and the album’s intense subject matter. The vinyl format enhances the layered production, giving more space to the intricate arrangements and haunting details. It is a perfect edition for both longtime fans and new listeners discovering this concept masterpiece. Them remains a defining release where storytelling and metal fully merge.
