King Diamond Rebuilds With Gus G | Rock Music News

King Diamond and longtime guitarist Andy La Rocque have parted ways after years together, with King calling it a natural evolution driven by increased touring demands that clashed with Andy’s needs. Enter Gus G., the new guitarist who’ll honor Andy’s legacy while bringing his own flair as a full band member. King is already deep in creative mode, with three new King Diamond albums and a Mercyful Fate record (due by December) in the works — Mercyful Fate taking priority for now. Expect Mercyful Fate’s album out in May 2025, followed by tours, then King Diamond’s next album and an even more epic stage show hitting the road in spring 2028.
