Once again, all hail the King! These are the latest remasters and are in beautiful looking digipacks.
The song "Voodoo" features a ripping solo from the late Dimebag Darrell of Pantera.
Love him or hate him, the King is a most deviled ham. I like ham so I like the King. So there.

The King Diamond remasters released back in the mid-90s weren't as good as the originals (SHOCKING!!!), so I'll probably pass on these.

Those have nothing to do with these, as the band themselves have taken care of these (well, the King and Andy La Rocque), and these 4 albums have never been remastered before.
I had no real problems with the Roadrunner remasters-you have to remember those albums all were produced/mixed very differently from one another with the drums usually suffering. The remastering wasn't going to fix any of the original problems.
I just listened to the Abagil remaster (as I do every Halloween) and that remains one of the most treble heavy, screechy recordings ever, but a Metal masterpiece nonetheless.
