also cradle of filth's lyrics are really really really really really good. or at least they used to be. the lyrics of the whole of "cruelty and the beast" are better than most lyrics i've ever read from any band, never mind most metal bands' pathetic lyrics.



wow.

Yeah, I agree that Cradle of Filth is very good as theatre. But I don't see how those lyrics are any better than lyrics which are not pompous elizabethan styled, obviously british, and grossly pretentious theatrics.
 
Edit:

Gore is the best fucking lyrical subject matter possible. What's more vicious than singing about raping babies with chainsaws?

:erk:

Abramelin-Pleasures


Stalking - your home seems so secure
Waiting - until the time is right
I see the light in your daughters room
I want to taste her fear and I want to rip her flesh
The time has come for me to enter your suburban dwelling
Excitement in my mind, explosions, my veins are swelling
Unwelcomed guest, you're not expecting me
An unlocked window, I enter silently
I make my way, slowly up the stairs,
creeping in where, your parents rest their heads.
Two steel spikes, will stake them to their bed,
writhing in pain, white sheets now dripping red
Your parents now disposed of, we can be alone,
I burst into your bedroom you can not be found.
I faintly hear you whimper from the corner of the room,
frozen stiff with fear, now the fun begins
I rip off your night-dress, expose your naked flesh
Throw you to the cold floor gnawing off your breasts
With fingers deep inside of you I rip your virgin skin
You tear apart so easily, bleeding from within
I now tear chunks of hair out and then bite off your nose
It's not to spite your face my dear,
it's how it fucking goes
You cry and scream in silence and then your bowels give way
Handfuls of your body waste I slam into your face

Gagging on excrement I give you one last kiss
My hand on your crotch, your labia I rip
Our play-time is now over, I must be on my way
Good night my darling angel, pray you do not wake
 
Haven't heard it, how's it differ from the s/t?

It's the same basic concept (low tuned guitars, blasting drums, etc.), but the main difference is the production of the guitar sound. The two guitars have very different qualities (and come through different sides of the of the speakers). One guitar is bright and the other is more br00tal and crushing, but they combine into think sounding riffs everyonce in awhile. I have no idea if this was intetional or not, but it makes for a cool sound. The solo's are great but the vocals are kinda unhearable, but not a big deal.
 
hey guys, are there any good metalcore acts (not the commercialized/emo crap on mtv) out there?? the formula of metalcore seems pretty interesting (If a band could use that formula to make some kickass metal)

VVVVV sent me some bands, I was wondering if you guys knew any more

how are people complaining about cradle of filth's lyrics??? dani filth is a great lyricist

Tonight is the night
The empowering wind that draws breath from despise
Roars ‘neath my wings as I soar with the end in sight

Choirs ignite
A swansong for Leda
Deathknells for Troy
Tragedy blooms from one act
I am nemesis

Poured in my arms
When my daughter’s eyelids closed
I swore to slaughter those
Who stole my ray of moonlight

So strike up the skies
The diction of thunder
God-given rites
No fiction can deafen the fact
I am nemesis

Cowled in the utter grief
I am the priest of a new disorder
Whose flag unfurled
Bears a hatred for the western world

The is no compromise
No piped lament
To stay the blind
Just a shrike cacophony of war

Ashes ember, fires rise
No longer am I paralysed
Now I drown in a loss worth fighting for

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis
Nemesis
Nemesis

Tonight is the night
The city sweats fever, the filth in her womb
Shifts like the season’s unease at the hands of doom

Restless inside
Her split underbelly
Suitored with flies
Marital bowels now contract
I am nemesis

Poured in my arms
When my daughter’s eyelids closed
I swore to slaughter those
Who stole my ray of moonlight
Never again
Our enemies entertained
I toy at the clasp of her chain
And remember the fight

Cowled in utter grief
I am the priest of a new disorder
Whose flag unfurled
Bears a hatred for the western world

There is no compromise
No piped lament to stay the blind
Just a shrike cacophony of war

Ashes ember, fires rise
No longer am I Palestined
Now I drown in a loss worth fighting for

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis

Black is my heart
Black is my heart
Black is my heart
I am nemesis
Nemesis

song about goddess of divine retribution - nemesis
