About Mercyful Fate/King Diamond...

I have Melissa.. I realize the importance of the band, but dammit I just can't get past the singing, no matter how much I try..

What's the secret? How do you approach this band and understand? If I can raise my drink to Venom and Slayer, then why the hell can't I do the same for Fate? :confused:
