Cradle Of Filth
10.14.2008
WHO'S COMING TO SEE CRADLE THIS WINTER?
England's black metal maestros Cradle of Filth will make their much anticipated return to U.S. soil this winter for their first headline tour since the Viva La Bands tour in fall 2007. The band will be spreading their black metal seed, supporting Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder, their latest opus for Roadrunner Records. Satyricon will serve as main support, while Greek metallers Septic Flesh will open the show. The tour runs for six weeks.
Cradle of Filth are standard bearers in the black metal scene. With Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder, which hits stores on October 28, the band spins a dark and twisted fairy tale about disgraced and disturbed French nobleman Gilles de Rais. The album is the thunderously fast and brutal soundtrack set to historical events and Cradle of Filth will be sure to delight the black metallites by playing selections from the new album during the tour.

Hey Eric fuck off. COF are one of the best black metal bands ever so you can eat a fat dick you fuckin hater
August 31, 11:15 AM
2. MILES SAID...
I think it's quite ironic how a guy or gal, who knows(?) with stoner in their name told Eric to fuck off, when obviously they didn't even read his whole passage. I'm looking forward to "Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder" although it seems the Filth has been descending ever since Midian.

August 25, 6:08 PM
3. ABI SAID...
hey fans of COF and to COF, i think the first few albums rocked man. not that the latest songs suck but i hope they bring some of their old skool shit back. dont you think so too?
August 25, 8:50 PM
5. SAMU SAID...
COF... sucks little girls crying music...and cover art is so ridiculous so emo. everything in usa is censored thats why u thing that is shocking.
August 26, 4:12 AM
6. STU SAID...
lol how the hell can you relate cradle to emo thats just beyond retarded
not suprising tho with brainless comments like that
August 26, 6:21 AM
7. PETE SAID...
I love cof and cant wait to hear this but the artwork is a little tacky, it looks like a cheap computer game, Iron Maiden used a similar style for the Dance of death album and fans thought it was a joke! hope there's time to change it still!
August 26, 6:41 AM
8. DEADNBURIED SAID...
Well i'm not big on the cover art, i think it's the worst they've had so far. It shoulda been drawn/painted rather than digital. But i don't care, as long as the music holds up to its promise of being more Cruelty-era i won't complain. Seeing them on december 1st. =D
August 26, 9:57 AM
9. FURSONA SAID...
The artwork is fucking shit !!!
August 26, 10:53 AM
10. TREY SAID...
Yeah while the cover sucks, I have no idea how you think Cradle are emo. Um, gothic, maybe. But emo is like...hair swoops and cutting yourself and whiny vocals talking about how your going to stab your heart out because the gf you had for a day broke up with you lmao. Not cradle. Anyway, I don't think even the CG woulda been that bad if it had been DESIGNED better on the cover...the pics are just scatter and that halo on the woman looks like it was added at the last second possible.
August 26, 11:41 AM
11. LIZ SAID...
godd the cover sucks ass!!! they always put a girl in the cover and this to put a guy it's not really cof like....the cd better make up for the cover
August 26, 3:24 PM
12. ROSS SAID...
Who cares what the cover looks like? All ya should care bout is the music!?! Hope it does sound like Dusk or Midian or I aiint buyin it!!!!
August 26, 4:40 PM
13. >>GUARDIA<< SAID...
DAMN i i think that CD cover IS SO FUCKING TERRIBLE! photograph, or drawing is MUCH better that that shit!
August 26, 5:23 PM
14. HELLCIUS SAID...
TO SAMU AND OTHERS HATERS!! GO FUCK YOURSELF!! IF DONT GET ENOUGH BRAIN TO UNDERSTAND THE COVER ART: KILL YOURSELVES!! THE COVER ART IS ABOUT THE MAIN THEME: Gilles de Rais. IF U DONT KNOW GO TO GOOGLE AND BE MORE INFORMED OK!!! CRADLE RULES!!!!

It was worth staying up 'til 5am for.
The intro alone is heavier than anything on Thornography. xD
August 27, 12:08 AM
18. JARROD SAID...
This rocks hard. Cover makes it point I think. I'm sick of all these dicks who seem to only like the old stuff why won't people let bands move forward or experiment it's beyond me.

24. STEVA FILTH SAID...
How the hell can you call Cradle emo? have you opened your f*cking eyes and ears and listened to what Cradle is potraying? True enough that Dani confessed that most of the songs (if not all) are primarily based around the idea of love, of course Cradle likes to potray a morbid and twisted sense around that topic. But still has no right to be titled emo. I recall Dani so many times bashing emo's, calling it god awfull rubbish and blaintly saying they have no purpose in life, and if you can't have any respect for Cradle's music, why the f*ck are you bashing them on their own site, if you don't like em don't rant, go f*ck yourself...
August 28, 2:37 PM
25. MATHIEU SAID...
I hope this album is going to be like Paul and Dani said, a Mix of Dusk and Midian. Btw, the album cover has slights common things with the midian one ( inside )
August 29, 10:07 AM
26. TPOEMF SAID...
im a cradle of filth fan just like all of you. The new song sucks. I thought it was going to be something like their old style because they said so, but then i listened to this song "tragic kingdom" and i am very dissapointed right now. i know, i know.. "they can't always be the same, it would be boring if they came out every 2 or 3 years with the same stuff" but, hey, that doesn't mean they have to infest us with crappy songs. i feel sorry for dani's lost voice, and sorry for my english :$
Greetings from Mexico

27. NORDIN SAID...
to TPOEMF...
OMG fuckhead, can´t believe you´re dissapointed with this, i agree with you on the fact that the old cradle is better fucking HATE thronography but this is the Cradle i´ve been fucking waiting for. can´t fucking wait to have the album in my hands, just hope that this isn´t the only good song on the entire album cause than i´ll smash the album with a hockeystick =/ sorry dani but if this is a continue of thornography i´ll fucking stop listening to all your songs. that´s it

1. CALLUM SAID...
Hey Dani,
In an interview Paul Allender he said that Cradle weren't going to make anymore concept albums because they took too long and they were complicated, what made you change your mind with Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder?
August 14, 8:52 PM
2. KYLE SAID...

August 18, 12:47 PM
4. CRADLE SAID...
Hello Dani! I heard that you're going to release an album that is reminiscent of the Dusk and the Midian albums. Man, we really miss the gothic terror of these album. Personally, I love all your albums but I prefer most the Dusk album, and I hope that what Paul Allender said will be true by the end of October.... Godspeed on the devil's thunder man, you and all the other bands who're like you.
August 22, 9:47 PM
5. SCORNED SAID...
Dani
The new album is sure to impress, as all Cradle does. How does it compare to some of the older Cradle, lyrically?
Do you think that you will tour Australia in the near future? Us Aussies are hanging out for it!
August 23, 12:32 AM
6. PAT LOATHSOME SAID...

August 23, 12:42 PM
8. JOSH SAID...
Hello, I have watched you in concert several times and all of your interviews. In fact, one of the interviews were at one of your concerts. One of the questions was "why do you have all that crap up there." Refering to the decorations and the dancing girls and you replied "It's the way we like." My question is; What about it actually intrigues you? Most people will say they like it just because your their favorite band-- to agree with the side they want to be on only because they want to be on it. My question to you, as the trend setter, why is it so appealing? On top of that, what would you say to those who change their own opinions just because you do?
Thanks.
August 24, 1:24 AM
9. JAYDE SAID...
When do you think you and the band will be touring Australia???
I know there are many Cradle of Filth fans out here.
And how the hell can you keep a note as long as what you do in your songs?
Its amazing to see and hear someone that can keep it at the same tone and level of sound and continue screamin like you do.
August 24, 2:11 AM
10. GREGORY SAID...
Hi Dani, Me and some friends of mine about 2 years ago formed new black/death metal band called Enthymion. At the moment we've got recorded material (10 sonngs)but also we've got a problem with its publishing.
I'll be thankful for any advices from your side.
Sending regards!
Gregory (voc. Enthymion)
August 24, 5:38 AM
11. STEVA SAID...
Hey Dani,
Just wanted to say that Cradle is by far the best ing band out there. And I'm curious if Godspeed is to be comparable with the Cruelty day's asides the fact that Gilles de Rais is the star of this vampyric show, because like you said once in an interview that you need to try everything once, will it be that now Cradle will have more of the faster, dracula-esque, and more ic feel to future albums? Keep on rocking in the d soul asylum in sweet Midian
-Late, Steva

August 26, 7:00 PM
14. AMER SAID...
Dani... Cradle Of Filth... What a fantastic song "Tragic Kingdom" is!! We need more of this, but we really miss the taste of "Heaven Turn Asunder" and "A Gothic Romance". Those are your masterpieces guys. Show us more of this you devils!
September 14, 10:03 AM
15. PHRYSKKAY SAID...
hey dani, well im a juggalette and i must say cradle of filth is way up there with twiztid and icp as my favorite bands ever! and i just recently started listening so i was wondering, do any of you wanna chill with a juggalette? or anything else if possible? *wicked grin*
September 20, 2:54 PM
16. JD SAID...
Hey Dani,
Funny ass thing, people next door to me tried to do Nymphetamine.... You I must say, have to be the only one that can do that song. You I have to say, and i know many agree with me, are the greasted and gifted person to be able to do the vocal structer that you do. Amazing is the only thing that comes to mind.

DEFENDING THE TITLE OF THE BLACKEST AND BADDEST
Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who's the blackest of them all? Why, Cradle of Filth, of course. England's most notorious and nefarious metal band are gearing up to release their darkest, most dastardly album of all, titled Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder, for Roadrunner Records on October 28. The album, which will have a special edition with an extra disc and bonus material, arrives just in time for Halloween, a holiday that fits Cradle of Filth's blackened, ghostly aesthetic.
The album is conceptual and is based on the well-documented, true-life fall from grace of a shadowy historical figure named Gilles de Rais, a wealthy French nobleman who was one of Joan of Arc's brothers-in-arms. He was best known, however, as a prolific serial killer who mixed prayers with his nightly murders as well as an aspiring alchemist. He was accused of a panoply of crimes, among them heresy, demonology and kidnapping. There's even an extreme fringe sect of historians who question de Rais' true status, with some convinced he was framed.
Regardless of viewpoint, leave it to Cradle of Filth to dissect de Rais' biography, exploring subversive, inflammatory historical subject matter in its lyrics, taking an unjaundiced look at a controversial figure in European history, set to epic black metal music. The band profiled Hungarian countess Elizabeth Bathory, who attempted to preserve her youth by bathing in the blood of virgins, in the past and now moves forward by framing their latest album around the story of de Rais.
Cradle of Filth's vocalist Dani Filth elaborated on the album's concept, saying, "By far this is our most extreme, dramatic and deeply disturbing album to date. The legend of Gilles de Rais has been given fresh, vampyrical life in this conceptual meisterwerk, swathed in pitch-black magic and a viciousness unsurpassed in the annals of Cradle history. Screw what our detractors say, everyone who has heard this album has bruised their jaws on the pentagram-bejewelled floor."
The tracklisting for Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder is as follows:
1.In Grandeur And Frankincense Devilment Stirs
2.Shat Out Of Hell
3.The Death Of Love
4.The 13th Caesar
5.Tiffauges
6.Tragic Kingdom
7.Sweetest Maleficia
8.Honey And Sulphur
9.Midnight Shadows Crawl To Darken Counsel With Life
10.Darkness Incarnate
11.Ten Leagues Beneath Contempt
12.Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder
13.Corpseflower
Cradle of Filth follows up 2006's Thornography with a bigger, faster and louder conceptual new album. The band retains their hard-earned reputation as the best of the blackest with Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder.
1. CHRIS SAID...
Hell yeah, sounds exciting. Can't wait to get my hands. I'm sure their "Tragic Kingdom" will put nails in the coffin of No Doubt's "Tragic kingdom."
In fact, there is "No Doubt" Sara jezabel Deva puts Gwen Stefani's Voice to great shame.

2. ERIC SAID...
They're nothing but biters......lol.....get it......fags.........
July 30, 12:21 PM
3. MARK SAID...
Here's to hoping they don't wait a year and a half to release a special edition(even though I'd still buy it again, damnit).
July 30, 3:03 PM
4. LING SAID...
I place my faith in what Dani has spewed in the above article. If they could conjure another magnus opus like Queen of Winter, Throned or Cruelty Brought Thee Orchid, I would fall back into requited and passionate love for the Filths.
Here's come to hoping and finger-crossing.
28th October, I call for thee,
Ling
August 6, 9:11 AM
5. HELLCIUS SAID...
THATS WHY I LOVE CRADLE OF FILTH!! THEY GOT SOMETHING GOOD TO HEAR, SOMETHING SOLID AND INTERESTING!! DANI IS A FUKING GENIUS!!!
August 22, 7:30 PM
6. AWEN SAID...
Album "Thornography" also was so much advertised. There was a lot of talks, a lot of promises and much mystery. Possibly I live too far from England, America and other countries on which a rate commercial distribution of new album. I do not depend upon mass hysteria which accompanies the issue of new album. I can judge only my feelings and can say that two last albums was an absolute manure. I do not want to ask to you unnecessary questions, I only hope that my heart will rise in revolt and will incinerate by "Cradle of Filth" again, as in 1997 year, when the world for me was round divided into two parts - before and later it.
August 23, 1:18 AM
7. VALOU SAID...
I love Tragic Kingdom !!! Yeah !
August 28, 1:28 PM
8. RISEN HERETIC SAID...
Tragic Kingdom is excellent. The rest of the album better be on par or surpass that track to hold my interest in this failing band. Metallica has fallen, who's next?

well they have done a great job with this album , they do different tastes on every release, and they are good at it,the only reason they went back to dusk's and cruelty's style is because of people and their requests and comments , so you wanted it , you got it in a better way. excellent Job Cradle Of Filth.
