boil and the skies will fall. As the world stands poised on
the edge of mass destruction, the freaks, fools and
monsters who rule us are about to be taught a real lesson

greatest album of their career to date. 'Damnation and a
Day', has been carved out of the darkness that is about to

    Review about Cradle Of Filth

    Cradle is kickass | Reviewer: Jennifer
        ------ About the song Coffin Fodder performed by Cradle Of Filth

    Who ever wrote the review under "cof sux" is just plain stupid. Cradle has been doing their thing for over 11 years now, and is one of the most influential METAL bands out there. If you dont think Cradle is METAL then you are just retarded. "cof sux" what are you listening to? if you think Cradle is "pussy metal" then what do you think real metal is? it is certainly not stupid band such as H.I.M, Bullet for my Valentine, and other SHIT.


    Awesome | Reviewer: James
        ------ About the song Lord Abortion performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I think this song is Brilliant. not only are the lyrics powerfull, beautiful, sadistic, and amazingly well proportioned, but the way the music is put together is magnificent. Never have I heared a song so black and awesome.


    Cradle of Filth | Reviewer: regretting crimson
        ------ About the song Babalon A.D. performed by Cradle Of Filth

    This song was pulled off terrifically. I can only begin to imagine the difficulty Dani went through to convey these lyrics into such a song. The music was great, the singing was awesome, the lyrics well thought out and the music video - superb. Cradle of Filth did a terrific job on this. Well done!


    lord abortion | Reviewer: Camilla<3
        ------ About the song Lord Abortion performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I absolutely love this song. I know that the lyrics are about fucking the dead but i think its beautiful anyways. Dani is a lyrical and vocal genius. This song is AMAZING especially towards the end. One of my favorite cof songs with some of the BEST lyrics...I kissed her viciously, maliciously, religiously<3<3<3<3 I love that part!!!


    hardcore | Reviewer: wild monkey
        ------ About the song Nymphetamine (fix) performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I like this song. It's not the usual music I listen to but it draws me in. LOOOOVE the meaning of the song. lol idk but it reminds me of Twilight. XD But seriously... Did he necessarily have to lick the mic in the video? That's not hardcore.. it's just sick. Hardcore is if he was licking a lollipop. XD


    way fucking better. | Reviewer: Chad Filth
        ------ About the song Hallowed Be Thy Name performed by Cradle Of Filth

    the CoF version slaughtered the Iron Maiden. the I.M. version just sounds so retarted to me now since I heard the CoF one. Iron Maiden may have dreamed of the song, but CoF made it so real, way more metal, the guitar is so much more defined, the singing is better, everything.


    =] | Reviewer: Rue Nyphetamine
        ------ About the song Lord Abortion performed by Cradle Of Filth

    In my opinion Dani Filth is one of the best lyricists out there. Compare any of his lyrics to rap country pop and anything else and you will see his rises above. =] This and Her Ghost in the Fog are my favorite Cradle songs. =DD


    A second opinion to non-entity | Reviewer: Entity
        ------ About the song Cthulhu Dawn performed by Cradle Of Filth

    The pentagram has nothing to do with biblical mythology, we know its essentially a pagan symbol, as well as appearing in ancient Europe for various needs (the most common being protection). Furthermore the pentagram sybolizes the four western elements along with the abstract 5th, the top one which can be but is not limited to symbolizing power/spirituality/abilities. So in my opinion the idea of the pentagram's appearance in this song is perfectly logical due to Lovecraft and his circle's dissection of mythological beasts into different elements (Cthulhu being water).
    Filth knows his stuff, so don't just think he pulls in random macabre for its aesthetic placement, there is clearly logic involved.


    A response to non-entity | Reviewer: entity
        ------ About the song Cthulhu Dawn performed by Cradle Of Filth

    Well, in all honesty we know that the pentagram sybolizes the four western elements along with the abstract 5th, the top one which can be but is not limited to symbolizing power/spirituality/abilities. Lovecraft and his circle delegated these primordial beasts into elemental distinctions, Cthulhu being an agent of water. And don't even start about the pentagram having anything to do with biblical mythology. It is rooted in paganism and as a symbol has been prominent throughout Western Europe for centuries due to its supposed protective qualities.
    Anyhow, my point is I think its quite logical for Filth to incorporate the pentagram into this song. He doesn't simply choose images and words for their appeal without logic; such appearances are there for a reason.


    Awsome | Reviewer: NiNa
        ------ About the song Bathory Aria performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I totally love this song
    It's like .. heaven
    I already knew the story behind elizabeth bathory, because I have this little obsession with serial killers with interesting stories :)
    anyway, the guy I'm in love with,
    he sent me the song,
    and I absolutely loved it :)

    It's my fav song ever :)


    An adorer. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Her Ghost In The Fog performed by Cradle Of Filth

    Sometimes I'll stay awake at night and pick apart their lyrics, their beautiful limericks and meaningful verses. Someday those who can't understand the music may do the same. Wow, I'm depressed. I need more life than music.


    I is confused | Reviewer: Ivy C
        ------ About artist/band Cradle Of Filth

    So yesh, i am a christan and i can not help to be captivated by this bands music. My favorite is A Dream Of Wolves In The Snow, and i always have to listen to it twice ^-^. Anyways, people say that they are satanists or w/e, but i havent read anything that states that they are. But if i do read something that says it, theres aother line that completely confuses me. It bothers me idk why but i have to know!
    Oh yeah, and i dont know if its such a good idea to worship a band... there just very talented inspiring people who have a way with music. xD

        ------ About the song Bathory Aria performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I totally love this cof song. the three parts are just perfect, the lyrics are excellent and ingridd did a good job. its probabilly one of their best. i cant decide whats their best, cause I cant choose between funeral in carpathia, dusk and her embrace, 13autumns and widow, beneath the howling stars and tortured soul asylum...


    ... word? | Reviewer: Nichi
        ------ About the song Lord Abortion performed by Cradle Of Filth

    I don't see how anyone could possibly interpret this an anything except necrophillia. Now, I'm not saying it's not clever or beautiful; it's both. Dani Filth [Daniel Davy, whatever] has two masters in English Language; he's a smart dude. His lyrics are injected with endless references to classic works of literature: Shakespeare, Lord Byron, et cetera.

    This is just OBVIOUSLY about fucking dead people.
    "but the mouth once good for fucks
    Came from retirement to prove She had not lost Her touch"

    Um, duh.

    And I have a live version of the song in which he actually says "This song... is about some suck fucking shit." Or something to that degree, anyways.

    But I digress. The song's amazing, Dani Filth is an amazing lyricist, and even the subject matter of which the song is about is rather interesting. It's unique and chilling, which is awesome.


    song | Reviewer: darknymphett
        ------ About the song English Fire performed by Cradle Of Filth

    i love this song, and i researched some of the names and terms to get a better idea of what it's about

    Abydos: one of the most ancient cities of Upper Egypt. "The hill of the symbol or reliquary" in which the sacred head of Osiris was preserved.

    Thessaly: Greek city, appears in Homer's Odyssey.

    Samhain: the word for November in the Gaelic languages. also a festival marking the end of the summer season and the end of the harvest.

    Leonine: of, characteristic of, or like a lion (probably having to do with the symbol of englad being a lion)



    Awesome | Reviewer: Pitcairn
        ------ About the song Filthy Little Secret performed by Cradle Of Filth

    One of there heavier songs, and they pull it off exceptoinally well.

    I can only guess what this song means.

    I think this song is about a man who is feeling mass amounts of guilt from keeping this secret. (I presume the secret is sex).

    "Doomed to dam the rift
    Across the shifting abyss
    With her body and it’s gift…
    My filthy little secret"

    By "doomed to dam the rift" i presume that he's talking about holding in this secret and keeping it quiet. Whilst the second line corresponds to the first by making the mass amount of guilt that builds up, seem like a "sinking abyss."

    I'm not very good at this sort of stuff. But i think this is basically what the song means =]



    I wish it wasn't true.... | Reviewer: agothicromance
        ------ About the song Dirge Inferno performed by Cradle Of Filth

    i want to first say that I love Cradle of Filth more than anything [besides my fiancee], I truly think that if the band hadn't worked out, Dani could have gone down as famous a poet as Poe. They are a part of me, they have inspired me to be a better writer. But to the point, with the release of thornography, I was excited for the new album. When I listened, they sounded...different. I then looked at the lyrics, and almost broke down. As of yet I am Assuming that Cradle has laid down, becoming what the masses want them to be. I am so saddened by this revalation, but In an interveiw with guitarist Paul Allender, he reavealed that the tracks from the next album [expected around hallowe'en] sounded more like Midian and earlier albums. So I can oly hope that it is true....


    Political motive | Reviewer: Barry C
        ------ About the song All Hope In Eclipse performed by Cradle Of Filth

    Does anyone else notice the political notions in this song, Dani is a fond analyser of the globalisation of politics, and particulary with the last two verses, there is definately reference to global tyranny and the oblivion of the masses, great lyrics


    GREAT SONG + LYRICS | Reviewer: DarknessX
        ------ About the song Nymphetamine (Overdose) performed by Cradle Of Filth

    This song was the very first C.O.L Song I had ever heard an it made me inlove with this band. They keep up their excellent workmanship and they all have the same members that they started out with. GOOD JOB I say!


    this song makes me feel alive... really | Reviewer: Julio Barrios
        ------ About the song Nymphetamine (fix) performed by Cradle Of Filth

    even this song made me write a book. my favorite one, i can't say more cuz' somebody might steal my ideas... so... let's leave it at that... we mexicans kick asses in california man. we 60% of all CA. well g'bye niggas.
