King Diamond - Masquerade of Madness (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Buy here: “’Masquerade of Madness’ was released digitally in 2019 before our North American tour. During rehearsals, we took one full day to film ‘Masquerade of Madness’ with David Brodsky and Allison Woest. We spent all day and all night recording while performing the song with our full tour stage show choreography. After the tour, covid happened. “The video was all but forgotten as the world came to a standstill – we never saw a single frame from all the footage. Years later, as things began to pick up and writing began for both new Mercyful Fate and King Diamond records, we wondered, what happened to that video from four years ago? So we decided to check in with David Brodsky and a couple of weeks later, we had the first cut of the video. “I was speechless! I had nothing to criticize and after just a few notes from Andy LaRocque, the video for ‘Masquerade of Madness’ was finished! There’s so much mood and black and white is used in a perfect way with Jodi’s performances. The visuals fit the music flawlessly and this is now among my favorite King Diamond videos along with ‘Sleepless Nights’ and ‘Welcome Home’ – and not to forget of course, our double live DVD. “This new video and the release of ‘Masquerade of Madness’ on 12” vinyl is our Halloween gift to the fans. We hope you enjoy this as much as we do! Happy Halloween, it’s not just a dream!“ - King Diamond US: EU: King Diamond online: CREDITS: KING DIAMOND King Diamond - Vocals Andy Larocque - Guitar Mike Wead - Guitar Pontus Egberg - Bass Matt Thompson - Drums Livia Zita Lokay - Vocals Jodi Cachia - Actress MyGoodEye : Music Visuals @mygoodeye Director, Cinematographer, Editor - David Brodsky for My Good Eye: Music Visuals Cinematographer - Allison Woest for My Good Eye: Music Visuals Assistant Editor - Jason Bozzi 5B Artist Management Justin Arcangel - Manager Jenny Douglas - Touring Director Mario Rubio - Manager Assistant Production Ole Bang - Tour Manager Ivan Coplan - Production Manager Torsten Nowald - Rigger/Set Carp/Cloaked Man #1 Holger Nowald - Stage Manager/Set Carp Jackub Czekierda - Guitar Tech/Cloaked Man #2 Willie Gee - Guitar Tech Laura Burton - Monitors Pontus Norgren - FOH Arnold Lindberg - FOH Christian Bonde - Lighting Designer Steve Stemac - Lighting Designer Ronald Grambell - Lighting Assistant Sebastián Blaize - Drum Tech
