Everything they did till after Cruelty is what i would consider some of the best underground Metal i've ever listened to.. Such a pitty they went downhill after that era, even though i like all their stuff till after Damnation and a Day. Godspeed was a pretty sweet return to their mid era, so hopefully their next ones on the more 'raw' side..
Thats true! I've heard that in one of his interviews. also, faust and ihsahn from Emperor was at one of COF's gigs when they were touring in the UK before they did one with COF..
I think it would be fucking awesome if Cradle Would do a better recorded cover of this song because This song is amazing and Cradle is amazing (yes old Cradle was better but imo they don't have any bad releases) and they made this sound even better
cradle of filth started as a black metal band. thats why they look and sound like a black metal band here. they got more symphonic and experimental later. mayhem was one of thier biggest influences. im feeling this one,
Any era of Cradle ROCKS! As far as the Mayhem cover goes, they only improved it and made it listenable because Mayhem f*cking sucks! Dead was their only asset. Another job well done for Dani, Paul & the boys.
I'd say old cradle demos and perhaps their first cd is more or less black meta. Part from that i agree to pretty much everything you say. I love Black Metal, But i also Love old Cradle!
I´m a huge fan since their first demo, but agree with you guys,i prefer the old cradle, dani´s voice was unbeliveable! I like the new cradle songs,but .......is not the same thing....is fast,heavy and brutal,but...they loose the underground spirit in their music....
Dani has stated quite a few times that he was a fan actually, and that he wished Mayhem would have more financial success. That they'd become as big as Satyricon or Immortal.
Deathcore bands like All Shall Perish (which imo, the best deathcore band - has great lyrics and vocals) uses breakdowns like any other deathcore songs have. *But surely, they're not posers, look at their lyrics.
@MrPie455 I agree, while im a pure black metal elitist as much as the next guy i still like this band. I mean maybe it's because i also listen to Goth/Doom metal aswell but idk
Some deathcore bands are posers but not all deathcore bands are.. All Shall Perish is a good example of a good deathcore band.. Their lyrics are different from other deathcore bands whose lyrics are about love and women etc. lol
There's nothing wrong in using breakdowns in songs. All Shall Perish's songs have breakdowns but at the same time their lyrics has meaning to it. They are not like poser bands like that lyrics are about women, love etc.
@SheFollowsMoon I guess some people are just plain stupid how are they not metal? They dont have the same sound anymore but they have matured as a band and evolved into something just as good as they were in the 90's different but just as good its still cof.
IMO, COF are always black metal.. Just that their `94 album was more raw and extreme. However, the current COF has become more symphonic. Lol what's wrong with deathcore?
Why would i? Even if I did it would sound better. Im not saying that suck there cause their old albums were superb but here they half ass the song so much! man they should have covered this in "Principle Of Evil Made Flesh" There they would have done good!
I don't think that COF are black metal, cause they're not, and they don't claim to be. And you don't know what emo is because if THIS was emo, then I guess emo wouldn't suck that much. Also, you can't give Cradle a lesson in black metal. Dani was friends with Euronymous, who the fuck can say that?? And if Mayhem didn't want them playing the cover, they wouldn't have allowed them.
Cradle doing Freezing Moon! I’m so happy I found this lol.
and wait a go cradle for doing this cover live in 94 i never knew they did this
its so sick
FUUUUUUUUUUUCK!?!?!?! CRADLE DOING MAYHEM!? :O
Fucking nice!

i didn't expect this
'MDMA1064'
I thank you highly for posting!
mayhem's rite! euronymous was in contact with dani filth in the early 90's
the old face of COF.. wow... truly corpse paint and the spirit of black metal truly reigns in this era!!!
I think it would be fucking awesome if Cradle Would do a better recorded cover of this song because This song is amazing and Cradle is amazing (yes old Cradle was better but imo they don't have any bad releases) and they made this sound even better
favourite band. even there new stuff i have loved it for years
cradle of filth started as a black metal band. thats why they look and sound like a black metal band here. they got more symphonic and experimental later. mayhem was one of thier biggest influences. im feeling this one,
they create the art for us to enjoy, and when we do not, we criticize.
Old cradle... before they were commercial, and back when they were accepted as a black metal band..
imo Cradle isn't a poser band..
Cradle write one of the most mind-invoking lyrics in black metal.
But Mayhem is definitely a legend in black metal.
@Dethcrush666
Yes it is.. A very old Cradle of Filth..
Any era of Cradle ROCKS! As far as the Mayhem cover goes, they only improved it and made it listenable because Mayhem f*cking sucks! Dead was their only asset. Another job well done for Dani, Paul & the boys.
I was there :)
en ese tiempo si valia la pena escucharlos hoy en dia dan pena
'JordanandCompany' Highly Agreed!
Cradle of Filth VS Mayhem? It's no possible competition... Mayhem crushes them.
I'd say old cradle demos and perhaps their first cd is more or less black meta. Part from that i agree to pretty much everything you say. I love Black Metal, But i also Love old Cradle!
I´m a huge fan since their first demo, but agree with you guys,i prefer the old cradle, dani´s voice was unbeliveable!

good point
16 years ago :)
FUKK YEA!!!!
they had a go at it at least. love old cradle
Deathcore bands like All Shall Perish (which imo, the best deathcore band - has great lyrics and vocals) uses breakdowns like any other deathcore songs have. *But surely, they're not posers, look at their lyrics.
@MrPie455 I agree, while im a pure black metal elitist as much as the next guy i still like this band. I mean maybe it's because i also listen to Goth/Doom metal aswell but idk
@TorturedShallowGrave
For real! Finally someone agrees!
Holy shit!!!! Cradle doing a Mayhem cover, why the fuck didn't they do a studio cover!!!??
great
oh yeah nice...
I knew deep down Dani was a Mayhem fan... .Couldn't find anything about it on the web though
Dani was in contact with Euronymous, during letter exchanges.
@MrPie455 totally agree
Some deathcore bands are posers but not all deathcore bands are..
All Shall Perish is a good example of a good deathcore band..
Their lyrics are different from other deathcore bands whose lyrics are about love and women etc. lol
lets see you do a cover :)
There's nothing wrong in using breakdowns in songs.
All Shall Perish's songs have breakdowns but at the same time their lyrics has meaning to it.
They are not like poser bands like that lyrics are about women, love etc.
@SheFollowsMoon Dude they are still fucking metal. Say what you want, say they aren't black metal, but they are definitely still metal.
I heard Dani was the first person Faust told at a party, right after he killed the gay man.
+1!
well yes and no. just because his vocals are dying because its killing his vocal cords and it sounds really good on the past cd...
Dani's vocals are really distinct, that's the only era they where actually good...
Did they change the lyrics? I think they did!
Is it that long ago? :p
hell ya my only problem is the sound quality but who cares it's Cradle Of Filth!!!! Fuck....Yeah. Freezing MOON!!!!
GOOD FUCKING QEUSTION !
fucking sick
Dead and Euronymus just turned over in their fuckin graves.
why does danni say that cradle of filth are not black metal and that they never were....
Hail Mayhem ! Check out Vader or Behemoth covers of the "Freezing Moon", they are so much better ;P
@SheFollowsMoon I guess some people are just plain stupid how are they not metal? They dont have the same sound anymore but they have matured as a band and evolved into something just as good as they were in the 90's different but just as good its still cof.
Mayhem is rolling in their grave.
@Fxxkit13 haha true you have me there
at last this band is playing good musik...... the Freezing Moon
that simply couldn't be true...
Back when cradle weren't a bunch of posers
lol danny is so short
@skeletor1993
you still would've spelled it wrong.
it was good but its a shame there was no solo HAIL MAYHEM
This was before Dani Filth came out of the closet.
IMO, COF are always black metal..
Just that their `94 album was more raw and extreme.
However, the current COF has become more symphonic.
Lol what's wrong with deathcore?
Im not even going to touch on how pathetic that comment was.
@sfzombie
they are still COF, but reinvented. hahaha. ofcourse with the help of technology. haha
i feel bad for the old members i mean look at what the band turned into a bunch of goths there's nothing metal about that
whatever u say ^^
@Fxxkit13 dave mustaine is the man
Nah he sounds like a crappy version of Occultus, the one who was supposed to do vocals before Attila.
'they ruined it'?
That is obviously jealousy talking mate.
Why would i? Even if I did it would sound better. Im not saying that suck there cause their old albums were superb but here they half ass the song so much! man they should have covered this in "Principle Of Evil Made Flesh" There they would have done good!
when cof used to be metal...
@skeletor1993
lol "mega death"
lololololololol
the only way they can play black metal is covering a real black metal band.
I don't think that COF are black metal, cause they're not, and they don't claim to be. And you don't know what emo is because if THIS was emo, then I guess emo wouldn't suck that much.
Also, you can't give Cradle a lesson in black metal. Dani was friends with Euronymous, who the fuck can say that?? And if Mayhem didn't want them playing the cover, they wouldn't have allowed them.
@skeletor1993
i just find it funny you say that considering it's spelled "Megadeth" not "Mega Death" hahahahahahahahahaha
there's no competition at all, only in people with small brain's.
aparently hell of alot more than you do if u think this is black metal -_-
haha dani filth looks pretty ridiculous in this video
@TheCthulhuDawn Do you feel offended? Its OK to be gay, but its not my style ya know
Anyone who says "OMG this is so fucking awesome!!!" is stupid. This version sucks. Not cause its Cradle but cause they skip so much parts!
COF was at their prime on Cruelty and the Beast, their latest album, shows anyone can play fast guitars and drums, and vocalize. very boring album.
wow cant belive this, its a shame cradle and mayhem suck now days
Debe ser una Broma , Dime que no hablas enserio !! D:
don't be so close-minded
buahahhaa joke ... cof covering Mayhem ... im gonna throw up ...
@TorturedShallowGrave a couple Deathcore bands are god but 90% of them suck
Fuck no.
Early mayhem was the best.
I dont like attila or maiac.
Raw mayhem!
Deathcore is NOT the same as Death Metal. Deathcore is gay wannabe death metal with hardcore breakdowns that emos listen to.
nomames ni sikiera se sabe la letra o pinche acento ingles la caga hahaha una de dos hahahahaha
no offense but old mayhem sounds like shit.....mid mayhem sounds the best imo.
nah mayhem is the least talented band of these three imo
Horrible! Cradle of Filth Sucks! _l_
