DELUXE EDITION OF CRADLE OF FILTH'S LATEST ALBUM -- FEATURES 12 UNRELEASED DEMOS AND 4 VIDEOS

OUT NOW on ITUNES: http://smarturl.it/COF_ExtendedClaws

Lyric video for the track 'For Your Vulgar Delectation', taken from The Manticore And Other Horrors, OUT NOW on Peaceville Records, and Nuclear Blast in the U.S.

The title of this, Cradle of Filth's tenth studio full-length, can be likened to a bestiary, a collection of stories on Monsters; personal demons, Chimeras, literary fiends and world-enslaving entities to blame but a few, Manticore being the ravening title track. It is a song about a beautiful mythological horror that comes to be feared as the disfigurehead of foreign occupation in the Indian provinces.

The songs 'Illicitus' and 'Pallid Reflection' bare the sweet ingredients of vampirism and lycanthropy; the wicked 'For Your Vulgar Delectation' and 'Frost On her Pillow' are woven perversely into grim fairytales, whilst classic, monumental tracks like 'The Abhorrent' and 'Siding With The Titans' both extol tentacular Lovecraftian values.

The album itself possesses an altogether new atmosphere for the band, incorporating a heavier, faster NWOBBM (New Wave of British Black Metal) punk vibe that is both current and cruel, blended with ornate orchestration and the quirky immediateness of 2000's Midian opus.

Recorded in eight weeks at both Springvale and Grindstone studios (where it was also mixed by Scott Atkins), Suffolk, the album is testament to the longevity of The 'Filth, as not only does it reek of Cradle's (feared or revered) brand of delicious metal vamperotica, but this thoroughly modern album places the band firmly in fresh killing fields anew.

Singer Dani Filth had this to say on the new album:

'This is our tenth commandment in metal. We have diversified and kept alive the spirit of this band and breathed it into something that I can proudly say, slays like an absolute motherf**ker. The Manticore is coming... Long live the filth!'

Cradle of Filth is also set to spread their darkness upon European lands with a tour throughout November and December.

Okay, I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt, I'll try listening to even more songs from their new album, but so far their new album is disappointing me, I really hope this is just a bad faze they are going through. The instruments are still good, but the lyrics are fucking stupid. This is coming from a huge fan, and I understand bands have their bad songs, and bad albums but this is just shit. I'm still a fan don't get me wrong, but the fact still remains, Cradle Of Filth is not at all what they use to be, nor have they gotten any better with this album. I was in love with Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa, that being my favorite album by them, but god damn, the lyrics now just suck, please Dani, I know you still have it in you, please make the next album have better lyrics, please!!

Cradle of Filth change with every album. People who listen to CoF should be used to that by now. The only things, that don't change are Dani's screeching vocals, the lyrics, that always tell a story and show Dani's amazing vocabulary (amazing at least to me, as English isn't my native language) and the fact, that their albums have a topic or are concept albums. You have to know something about the respective topic in order to understand the lyrics.

Seeing how Dani's vocals have turned up, I would really like to see him singing totally in clean voice, it could be cool.

@tranceparentcycle: This sounds nothing like Darkly. Godspeed and Darkly with their blastbeats and orchestration sounded much more like older COF. This one is more in the straighter style of Nymphetamine and Thornography, but not as bad as Thornography..

I quietly adore the filth, but may have to be more loud about it now!

Thank you lord6of9. Been a fan of cof since dark faerytales. This is just darkly over again. Perhaps it's time for Dani to step down and let someone else take the reigns.
