Another thing is that you get two versions, both German and English lyrics versions are included. <\/p>\n<p>Is there a difference between the same story in two languages? I believe there is. First up there is a certain vibrato to M Roth\u00b4s vocals in German that is not a s clear in English. The German moody version is also a lot more depressive that the somewhat lighter English disc. Like the difference between \u201cGuten Tag\u201d and \u201cCheerio\u201dThe English version is a 4\/5, the storyline is exquisite, the songs have stamina and good ideas\/arrangements and the slight KING DIAMOND touch of \u201cThe Yellow Mansion of Suicide\u201d is simply haunting. The german variety is plagued by the typical vibrato voice of German dep rock, and German lyrics always make me feel gloomy. The intros are a bit on the long side in both versions, and the blackish growl that is used at times does them no favors.
