Dani Filth On Doomed Volbeat, Cult, Enslaved Supergroup

(Metal Hammer) Cradle Of Filth and Devilment frontman Dani Filth has recalled the failed supergroup he formed with members of Volbeat, Enslaved, The Cult and Gorgoroth.

The band, named Temple Of The Black Moon, featured King from Gorgoroth, Ice Dale from Enslaved, Rob Caggiano from Anthrax and Volbeat and John Tempesta from The Cult and White Zombie.

Filth reveals they wrote 10 "amazing" songs for their touted debut CNT (All That's Missing Is You) over a four-year span and that the drums and bass recordings are still sitting in storage. But he suggests Caggiano's manager "shelved" the project after the guitarist moved to Volbeat so he wouldn't lose focus.

Filth tells HMV: "This was only a couple of years ago that it was recorded, and it's a brilliant album. The working album title was CNT (All That's Missing Is You) - it would have been amazing!

"The drums were recorded in LA, and the bass. They're still sitting with a record label. This is my opinion, when Rob left Anthrax the manager shelved it because he didn't want Rob being distracted from earning loads of money for it. If that makes any sense.

"I don't know if it's ever going to see the light of day - in fact I want Devilment to cover all of it - it might be the only way around the problem to be fair."

He continues: "It would probably be too late now if it ever came out, it would sound primeval by then." Read more here.
