The last time we got a Cradle of Filth
CD in to review I passed it off to ScottVile like a coward. This time around
I thought Id give it a go myself. While this band has a bit too much Goth
for my regular taste, reading the track listings it appeared to be a concept
album, something Im always interested in. So I sat back opened a cold
one and popped this puppy in the CD player, I wasnt prepared for what
I got. The overall impression I came away with is this is a Horror Show
set to music. The vocals come off like King Diamond meet Overkill and I
cant fault the musicianship. The rhythm section does a great job and the
album is filled with great metal guitar work.
Despite the fact that this really isnt
my bag, it was a compelling listen and Im sure fans of this band and
genre of music will walk away satisfied with this album which I believe
is a reissue for them with the addition of the bonus disc.

Cradle of Filth did a realy nice job on this album. If you are in to Goth Metal then this is a good record to listen to. Its about time that some bands with actual guitar talent start getting some recognition. I'm sick of the New Metal wave in America. Bands like Linkin Park, and Papa Roach, and all other Mtv metal bands have no musical talant. You know why all of the mainstream artists have no talent? Two words: Kurt Colbain. Ever since the grunge wave a bunch of mamas boys with guitars decided they god play simple songs and make money. What ever happend to going to see Panthera, Megadeth, or Iron Maiden. It just makes me sick. As an expert guitar player and die hard metal fan i recommend looking to our European friends. Over there they listen to Cradle of Filth, Iced Earth, Iron Maiden, Children of Bodom, and all sorts of great bands. Euro Metal Is the Next wave. American New Metal is repetative and boring. By the way i Love the Iron Maiden Cover Hallowed Be thy name. I think everyone else does too.

Cradle of Filth are sell-outs, and Danis a money hungry ass*ole, it's funny how since they shat on Black Metal alot of Slipknot fans and Marilyn Manson fans ran into store to buy it, so they could go around telling people how hard they are because they own a "Black metal" CD.

I rate this album high, as for you, meditate on these:
