"In the Shadows" serves as a remarkable 'comeback' record, a testament to Mercyful Fate's enduring greatness amid the changing metal landscape of 1993. The album showcases a balance between eerie, slower lurching riffs and bursts of intense, melodic speed/heavy metal. Kim Bendix Petersen's songwriting brilliance shines through, with lyrics that read like short stories and suit the album's introspective gloom. The Shermann/Denner guitar configuration adds a unique dimension to the band's sound, setting it apart from King Diamond's solo work. The production quality reaches a new benchmark, enhancing the atmospheric quality of the album. While the bass playing is subdued, and "Return of the Vampire" may seem redundant, "In the Shadows" stands as a timeless and tremendous addition to Mercyful Fate's discography. This '93 gem continues to improve with age, making it a must-listen for fans.
