The band originally signed with Roadrunner Records, which was a leading heavy metal label in the 1980s and '90s. In 1987, King Diamond became the first band on the label to land on the Billboard Hot 200 charts with their second album "Abigail" peaking at number 123. Their third album "Them" followed in 1988.
