[RICK8]

British black metal band Cradle of Filth was formed in 1991, originally comprising vocalist Dani Davey, guitarist Paul Ryan, his keyboardist brother Benjamin, bassist John Richard, and drummer Darren. After recording a demo dubbed Invoking the Unclean a year later, the group recruited guitarist Robin Eaglestone, who quit soon after recording a second demo, Orgiastic Pleasures; however, when Richard exited the band a short time later, Eaglestone stepped back in to assume bass duties, opening the door for guitarist Paul Allender. Following a third demo, Total Fucking Darkness, Cradle of Filth -- now with new drummer Nicholas Barker -- signed with the Cacophonous label, issuing their proper debut, The Principle of Evil Made Flesh, in mid-1994. The lineup changes continued when the Ryan brothers both departed to form the Blood Divine (and Allender left as well), making room for guitarists Stuart Antsis and Jared Demeter and keyboardist Damien Gregori to debut on the 1996 mini-LP Vempire or Dark Faerytales in Phallustein. For the full-length Dusk and Her Embrace later that same year, Gian Pyres took Demeter's spot, and afterward, Gregori was replaced by keyboardist Les Smith; at any rate, the album substantially expanded the group's growing cult following. Cradle of Filth's next effort, Cruelty and the Beast, appeared in 1998, amid the group's steadily growing reputation for elaborate Alice Cooper/Marilyn Manson-style concert theatrics. Two years later the group returned with From the Cradle to Enslave, an EP that featured new drummer Adrian Erlandsson (formerly of Sweden's At the Gates and the Haunted), as Barker had departed to join Dimmu Borgir. The band's dizzying lineup changes continued apace as Paul Allender rejoined the group and Martin Powell (ex-Anathema and My Dying Bride) replaced Smith on keyboards for the full-length Midian, which was appropriately released on Halloween 2000. Bitter Suites to Succubi was issued on Spitfire in summer 2001. The group added a choir and orchestra to the lineup for 2003's Damnation and a Day on Red Ink, and moved to Roadrunner fo 2004's Nymphetamine. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide.

Haha yeah metal bands do scare me a little bit too. Why can't they make pretty pictures of butterflys and rainbows and bunnys skipping through daffodils... :rolleyes:

Just a random note: I discovered that my nemesis at school likes Rammstein today! - thats a very rare thing to find in my town seeing Coldplay is even considered exotic. :stunned:

[RICK8]

Oh that is cool..Rammstein is bloody awesome!!

[busybeeburns]

Yes I am Ian..do you like them?no, they're shocking

[RICK8]

Oh yes I thought you would say that....:lol:

Good to see that you did not lock the thread..:nice:

[busybeeburns]

why would I lock the thread?

[RICK8]

Because you might think it not acceptable for Coldplaying..:lol:

[RICK8]

Come on ppl,show the love!!!!!!!! :P

[Lore]

[RICK8]

Oh dear....:shakes head*

[burningmonk]

I've never really listened to these guys for some reason. Recommend something.

BTW Rick, do you like Judas Priest?

[RICK8]

Have not really heard much of their music,so i guess not.


What,you mean recommend an album or a song??

[burningmonk]

Album, song whichever you wish :)

[RICK8]

Oh ok..I recommend you start off with the album "Midian"!!

[burningmonk]

Ok mate, will check it out.

[RICK8]

Cool,and let me know what you think dude!!!!

[RICK8]

I guess you did not like it...

[RICK8]

Hmmm.....:thinking:

[RICK8]

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

Oh Cradle of Filth,my brother has two posters in his rooms,he is quite HC fan...not really typical black metal,but gimme Immortal and Ill be fine

I dont really like these guys

[RICK8]

To crude for ya?

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

ah not really,just not my cup of tea

[Tnspieler1012]

mine neither, and they're not particularly popular around here after the ordeal with dani filth and some idiotic fans of his raiding our forum and spewing....well....filth.

[Nash]

i heard some tracks from them, and they are ok but prefer other bands.
try with hypocrisy, a great sweden death metal band.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

oh hypocrisy is favourite of my brother

[RICK8]

Yep they are good.

[RICK8]

mine neither, and they're not particularly popular around here after the ordeal with dani filth and some idiotic fans of his raiding our forum and spewing....well....filth.



Well yea they are filth...:lol: Which forum was that?

[MariePeter18]

Nymphetamine Fix is incredible. The most popular one, but still the greatest.
But hell, have you seen the live DVD? Sarah Jezebel Deva does the female voice in this song and dear.... she slaughtered it :\ I was very dissapointed.

Other than that, Mannequin is my favorite song :D The first one I heard of Cradle of Filth :)

What are your fav songs?

[Heatseeker]

I don't think he would lock something because it is "inappropriate". People listen to things much worse than COF on here.

[RICK8]

There are too many too list....if ya like Nymphetamine Fix,check out the overdose version.

[RICK8]

I don't think he would lock something because it is "inappropriate". People listen to things much worse than COF on here.




Oh like what?

[Heatseeker]

There was a thread referring to Limp Bizkit:lol:

[RICK8]

Oh yeah.........:laugh3:

[MariePeter18]

Yeah Rick, I like the Overdose version too, I love the parts they put before and after Nymphetamine, it's very very good, but the best is deff Nymphetamine Fix :P

[RICK8]

Nah that aint the best one,have you listened too any of the others?

[MariePeter18]

Yep, of course.
Mannequin has to be my second fav.
Her Ghost in the fog is kick-ass too.
I know just a couple of others, but I'm not an expert.

[RICK8]

I have all the albums.....:lol:

[MariePeter18]

daaamn :P
nice :P
which one is your fav?

[RICK8]

Probably Midian.

[MariePeter18]

[RICK8]

Meh,ya can just d/l some..:sneaky:

[MariePeter18]

I could.. :rolleyes:

[RICK8]

So have you d/l??

[MariePeter18]

I will, I promise :O (you'll just have to check on last.fm.. :P)

[MariePeter18]

I listened to it!
I still prefer Nymphetamine, but it was pretty good.
My fav on it would be Her Ghost In The Fog :D

[RICK8]

Ok cool...

[MariePeter18]

lol yep yep.

[RICK8]

Got any band shirts apart from Nightwish?

[MariePeter18]

Yeah, but none that will interest you, probably.
Coldplay, The Killers, Blinded By Faith and Billy Talent x2.

Blinded By Faith is a kickass black metal band from Canada, you shold check them out.

What about you, do you have band shirts?

[RICK8]

Blinded by faith? Nah i have like hundreds of demo,s and albums to listen too,will take forever,so i have enough for now..


Aye i have a few...Dimmu Borgir,COF x 2,Venom,Iron Maiden.

Gonna get some more soon.

[MariePeter18]

As you want..

Nice :D

Yeah me too.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

I recently got two shirts by Children of Bodom and I need some Pantera

[MariePeter18]

Nice :O
The Children of Bodom ones are pretty cool, in general.

[RICK8]

Yeah they are rather cool.........although the band is a little bit ghey.

[MariePeter18]

Nooooo :P
well maybe a little bit :P
but you gotta admit that some of their songs are kickass :P

[RICK8]

Yeah like Every Time I die.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

Any of their song is extremely overworked into smallest details(hopefully I make sense),especially Janne and Jaska are very talented musicians
Nice :O
The Children of Bodom ones are pretty cool, in general.
yeah the reaper idea is wonderful

[RICK8]

You mean it's over produced?

[MariePeter18]

No I think he means that the band worked very hard on every part of the song to make it sound perfect.

[RICK8]

Yeah it's over produced....:p


I prefer the rough production..

[MariePeter18]

Well, it's good when it sounds neat and well done. Too rough is not all that fun to listen to.

[Plug_in_coldplaying]

No I think he means that the band worked very hard on every part of the song to make it sound perfect.

Exactly tis is my point and I disagree its overproduced sound

[RICK8]

You guys don't understand...oh well.

[MariePeter18]

Well hey sorry, dear, my first language isn't english so I might not understand exactly everything you say all the time.

[RICK8]

It isn't? :stunned:


What is it?

[MariePeter18]

Haha you thought it was? :P I guess it's a good thing then.

It's French.

[RICK8]

Ah so your born in france...how long you been in canada?

[MariePeter18]

Not at all. There's a province in Canada where the big majority of the citizens speak French. I live in it.
Like most of us here, a part of my ancesters are French people who arrived here after the discovery of America. Quebec (my province) was a French colony before the English took over it.

[RICK8]

Ah okay i thought you were born in Paris...:D

[MariePeter18]

Hehe nope :P
