Description

For the last quarter of a century,* Cradle Of Filth have assumed the role of dark metal diarists,* exploring the amorphous horrors that lurk in humanity's shadows and revelling in the opulence of mortal sin across centuries powered by bleak romance and a lust for the sensually grotesque. Currently enjoying a collective creative renaissance that is driving them to new heights of elegant fury,* the band *- Dani,* guitarists Ashok and Richard Shaw,* bassist Daniel Firth,* keyboard *& vocal siren Lindsay Schoolcraft and mercurial percussive mainstay Martin karoupka *- are more potent and devastating than ever before as they approach the release of their latest and perhaps greatest studio effort,* *'Cryptoriana *- The Seductiveness Of Decay'."This album represents an onwards and upwards drive for the band,* building on the success of *'Hammer Of The Witches' and pushing further with the venomous musicology to create something that is both unique and loyal to our previous incarnations,*" Dani Filth states. *" Plus we covered *'Alison Hell' by Annihilator,* a thrash metal classic that has been on our proverbial lips for centuries!" A monstrous tour-de-force of utterly distinctive but reassuringly destructive heavy metal,* laced with spectral disquiet but delivered with muscular aplomb,* *'Cryptoriana' was conceived during the summer of 2016 as Cradle Of Filth convened in Ashok and karoupka's native Czech Republic,* before being meticulously pieced together by the band and now long-time producer Scott Atkins back in the UK during the first half of 2017. From the exhilarating melodrama of opening two-fisted salvo *'Exquisite Torments Await' and *'Heartbreak And Seance' onwards,* the twelfth Cradle album manifestly represents yet another wild expansion of the band's sonic manifesto across nine epic and elaborate new anti-hymns."The album,* both lyrically and artistically,* is infused with Victorian gothic horror and thus the title is a reflection of that,*" Dani explains
