Cradle of Filth

[Astral Poetry]

I'm going to go on a limb here and start a thread on Cradle. Anyway, what is your favorite song, cd, member, merchandise, etc. I enjoy Vempire quite a bit, my favorite song being "Queen of Winter, Throned".

Its ALL shit argh.

Its black metal done for kiddies and people who don't like BM.

 

[toolsofthetrade]

i disagree. either you like the vampire style or you don't. goes the same for other metal styles.
Vempire has been a definition for loads of upcoming bands at that time, CoF haven't surpassed theirselves in baroque extremity after that 1.
the music got really affected by their sell-out thru MFN. and so did Cradle of Fear - mr. Davey thought he had multiple talents, he obviously didn't realise that he didn't...

 

[Soul Conspiracy]

I remember when they first started and mr and my friends had a copy of their demo "Orgiastic pleasures foul" (I think thats what it was called). It was really heavy and we all thought it was great. The demo got lend to a kid whose dad took offense to the cover and destroyed it. Ah, those were the days.
