Biography

Suffolk, United Kingdom (1991 – present)

Cradle of Filth is an band, formed in Suffolk, United Kingdom in 1991. The band consists of Dani Filth (vocals), Paul Allender (guitars), Charles Hedger (guitars), Dave Pybus (bass), Sarah Jezebel Deva (backing vocals), Rosie Smith (keyboards), and Martin Skaroupka (drums).

In 1994, Cradle of Filth was signed to Cacophonous Records, on which they released their first album “The Principle of Evil Made Flesh”. Cacophonous also pressed the “Vempire or Dark Faerytales in Phallustein” EP in 1996. After this the band were signed to Music For Nations, for whom they produced three of their most prominent full length CD’s to date: “Dusk and Her Embrace”, “Cruelty and the Beast”, and “Midian”. The “From The Cradle To Enslave” EP and a compilation dubbed “Bitter Suites To Succubi” also featured many original songs, as well as some covers and re-recordings of old songs. Then in 2003, they signed to Sony and released only one album on this record label, “Damnation and a Day”. At the beginning of 2004 however, they left Sony and signed to Roadrunner records, through which they released the albums “Nymphetamine” (2004) and their latest “Thornography” (2006). They also have their own label Abracadaver on which “Bitter Suites To Succubi” was released. They hope to sign bands to this label in the near future. On Sept 27th 2008 Roadrunner Records and Cradle of Filth made available an MP3 download for “Tragic Kingdom” the first sample of the upcoming album “Godspeed on the Devil’s Thunder” due to be released in October (available here)

    Stupid when people get so caught up on genre-splitting. Enjoy the music or don't. I'm not huge on what they've put out lately, but I don't let that take away the genius of the majority of their albums.

    I personally think they haven't put out a good album since "Cruelty and the Beast"... Been jamming that all day, on a kick again!

    Many bands have tags that don't really describe their music perfectly. It's not the end of the world.[3] And then Fuck True black metal . .

    To me CoF is symphonic more than anything. Many label artists one or 2 genres despite the artist changing the genre/sound around.

    This isn't BlackMetal. I'ts not bad, the old material is pretty good, but the BM tag is very wrong

    vv Agreed. Midian in particular is "Halloween"-sounding :D Nice to see the "trve" metal fans wasting their time, spamming this shoutbox as usual XD
