King Diamond St. Lucifer's Hospital 1920 Tour with Overkill and Night Demon, featuring Kyrkur on Vocals

KING DIAMOND on what fans can expect, "This is Saint Lucifer’s Hospital, enter if you dare! We have been busy putting this ever-growing horror story together, and it’s still growing. I know the end of it, but how we will get there will be a long trip. There are so many characters, and so many unexpected things along this journey. It’s a crazy family on another timeline in 1920, where I experienced some hard times, and they have to come to our time to steal from us to survive. This is the most elaborate thing we have ever done, that goes for the stage production as well.
"There will be additional backing vocals by Myrkur and she’ll be playing organ for songs that need it. There will be some horrific surprises taking place on stage, but we are not to be held responsible since we are on a whole different timeline in 1920. It was back at the time when medicine was going through a dark period with lots of testing on human beings in order to progress medicine. This is Saint Lucifer’s Hospital, also known as The Institute, enter if you dare!"

May 2023 Updates:
See our recent show review for Moonspell, Eleine, Oceans of Slumber, and Vintersea. As of the past few months we have been working on updating the Metal Asylum website, new fresh look and layout, it's long overdue. The content here will not be lost, just archived. More updates to come. In the meantime, some reviews will be posted here from time to time for albums and other media formats, concerts, maybe an interview. But, overall the Facebook page gets more activity and readers just respond more to social media pages. Daily, we post album anniversaries, news, comments and short reviews on new music, both singles and albums, plus concert reports that includes photo galleries. MetalAsylum.net | Facebook . We also do Facebook live interviews and discussions. Recent photo galleries have been uploaded for Anvil with Don Jamieson and Midnite Hellion at Crossroads in Garwood, NJ. Queensrcyhe/Marty Friedman/Trauma at Irving Plaza in NYC, Satan/Night Demon and Haunty at Dingbatz in Clifton NJ, and Tony Harnell doing a TNT set at Debonair in Teanack, NJ.
When time allows, we are also active doing reviews, interviews, and conversations at our YouTube channel. That is another format people prefer over reading music and concert reviews. Please subscribe and like our videos. MetalAsylum.net - YouTube
