Alec Damiano talked to Denner/Shermann's legendary axeman Hank Shermann about the band's upcoming album "Masters of Evil," songwriting, influences... and playing with Volbeat on Gigantour in 2012.

King Diamond was supposed to perform "Come to the Sabbath" with the band on the Dallas date, but Dave Mustaine did not allow it:

“King Diamond was coming to the show in order to sing ['Come to the Sabbath']. But apparently, Dave Mustaine didn’t want King to be onstage and do whatever Satanic lyrics, or whatever that was all about… So, King came to the concert and he was given the–he was told that, ‘Hey King, you’re not allowed’ from Mustaine for some reason..."

Shermann also revealed that a Mercyful Fate reunion is possible, though nothing has been set in stone. You can listen to the entire interview below.

‘Masters of Evil‘ is due for release on June 24th via Metal Blade Records.
