The band sort of reformed and rerecorded these two tracks and it sounds kinda cool. Im gonna have to buy this vinyl. Maybe this small reformation will make them relise they need to come back propperly again :D

Those are the ones they re-recorded for Guitar Hero aren't they? I wasn't particularly impressed with the production job when I heard them, but at least they've taken steps towards playing together again. You'd have to be a bit of a mug to spend £15.50 on two hastily re-recorded old songs though!

Tom: Definatly! I NEED to see A Corpse Without Soul live. This single sounds great, but it isnt enough!

And James. Theyve been remixed and mastered by Andy LaRocque and they sound beasty!

Ah cool, fair enough - still a bit of a rip-off though!

£17.50 for 2 tracks, and a picture disc which appears to be a GH: Metallica screenshot. Sounds like a fucking rip off.

I'd love to see King Diamond live, it would be hilarious. Mercyful Fate live would be wonderful, I'd go absolutely beserk if I saw them play Evil live.

Jon i'd actually be willing to have a public gay orgy if MF were to play. I know it's pure fantasy, but yeah amazing.

That picture disk is pretty much a rip off imo, won't stop me acquiring these remastered tracks though.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.

Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

Bleerrgh... It IS a rip off but i want this so badly! Kings vocals are still amazing on this. If Mercyful Fate did get back together theyd have to play the whole of Melissa live.

That is a bit too much for it. They could just be bonus tracks on a best of or something like that so they would be at a good price.
