Cradle of Filth post album trailer

The latest chapter of CRADLE OF FILTH's dark history has been released through Peaceville Records on the band's own AbraCadaver imprint and will be issued this week by Nuclear Blast in North America. Titled Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa their ninth studio album is, in the word's of Cradle's infamous frontman Dani Filth "without doubt the fastest and most brutal album we've created to date. As an acquaintance of the band so aptly noted, this is like 'IRON MAIDEN on crack in a graveyard of angels!"

"This album is Cradle at our most sinister and darkened fairytale,” continues Dani. "A gothic horror themed slay-ride of fervour and perversion; yet amidst the orchestral melodrama and lush, cinematic production, there sits stalwart a ravening beast of furious riffing, flesh ripping vocals and monstrous, unstoppable percussion.”
