MERCYFUL FATE Enamel Pin

Before black metal had a name, Mercyful Fate was already doing things that made people genuinely uncomfortable, and King Diamond was doing them in face paint and seven-octave falsetto.

The Copenhagen five-piece cast a long shadow. Their 1983 debut Melissa and the follow-up Don't Break the Oath are foundational texts for anyone serious about heavy metal with actual darkness in it, not the performative kind. King Diamond's theatrics, Hank Shermann and Michael Denner's twin guitar sorcery, the whole occult atmosphere, it influenced everyone from Metallica to the entire Scandinavian black metal scene that came after. This official licensed enamel pin by Alchemy is for the people who know exactly where the thread starts. Clip it next to your Venom pin if you have one. You should have one.
