I think I prefer almost every other debut you mention, but Melissa is indeed astonishing. Excellent review

All of those are excellent. Throw in Holy Diver and Blizzard of Ozz, too. Thank you!

I'm not a big fan of his vocals either but the music is so insanely good that every Mercyful Fate and King Diamond album released in the '80s is simply brilliant.

There are no bands from that period that play similar music.

Whole nwobhm scene was better in vocals, whole 80 and german metal scene was better, accept, scotpions, rw, wasp, other what came later. I would like Kim bands if he would not scream, its his bad side

What makes up "better" vocals is highly debatable but for me, King Diamond's vocals are way more interesting, thrilling and bone-chilling than any of the vocalists of the bands' you listed.

Since when is wasp part of the German metal scene? Scorpions better vocals? Accept better vocals? Gee wiz, no way. Scorpions are terrible due to the horrendously heavy German accent. And Kim's vocals are unique whereas the vocals you prefer aren't.

Ok, but Mercyful Fate barely formed in 1981, they released an EP in 1982 and a full-length in 1983. Accept has been loitering around since the 1970s while Scorpions, if we are to believe the founding member, since the late 1960s. Also, I don't think Udo or Klaus's vocals are better than King's, but they fit the music they sing to. King's vocals are unique, in the sense that the guy has a wide range, from very guttural vocals to high pitch falsetto and pretty much fits the kind of music he sings to. In the early KD albums it feels as if you are listening to a theater play rather than a music album.
I have to admit that when I first heard MF/KD I was put off by the vocals as well. But that was because I never heard anything alike before. When I gave it a second try, it sunk in. It is very theatrical, not for everyone, but in no way bad. Just different. Although I hate saying this phrase as it always comes up as pretentious, it is an acquired taste.

Great review! This is indeed an amazing debut!
Satan's Fall by itself is already an absolute masterpiece - and then, like you said, all of the other songs are killer as well!
