Mercyful Fate - Don't Break The Oath

Vinyl NM. Cover EX.

Produced by Hendrik Lund, 1984's Don't Break The Oath is the sophomore black metal masterpiece from seminal Danish outfit Mercyful Fate and last release for nearly ten years. Inspiring everyone from Metallica to Cradle Of Filth, this and the group's 1983 debut Melissa are two defining albums to come out of the black metal genre. The twin guitar leads of Michael Denner and Hank Shermann, bolstered by the locked-in rhythm section of bassist Timi Hansen and drummer Kim Ruzz, created a powerful new, thoroughly European metal sound that combined the heaviness and instrumental flourishes of Rainbow with the aggression of Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercyful_Fate
