Lyrics
When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake
And the mists steal in with ease
Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes
In adoration of the moon and thee
"They call as I to thee...."
And I will come, as if in dream
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen
Of vengeful, ancient breed
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies
Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I can taste thy scent by candlelight
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity....
She shall come for me
A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night
And I have ridden from the westerning light
To expend my lust
Tear away the funereal dress
Know that I will escape from my death
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress
Lo! The pale moonlight
Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline
Of mist and moth and the hunger inside
Kisses took to fever and the fever, demise
"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise
My scarlet tears will run
As stolen blood and whispered love
Of fantasies undone"
Countess swathed in ebony
And snow-white balletic grace
Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish
For lust and her disgrace
Dusk and her embrace
We shall flit through the shadows
Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow
Under deadly nightshade
Still warmed with the kill's afterglow
Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me
(Beneath the stars taste the death in me)
Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss
To sever thin mortality
Elizabeth
My heart is thine
Thy fragrant words Warm within like wine....
"Let me come to thee
With eyes like Asphodel
Moon-glancing, loose desires free
To writhe under my spell"
Ereshkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I know thy scent by candlelight
Immortal flesh I yearn to share
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity
She shall come for me....
Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus
How the full embosomed fog
Imparts the night to us....

Dani's voice in the 90's. Nicholas on drums. The real COF. THAT. JUST. ROCKS.

@Sinister King Manticore is boring, Darkly was their last decent album but it still had its boring moments. Anything before that was great though

Cradle during Midian all the way to damnation and a day best cradle of filth ever nick came in to early I think because they didn't seem to have themselves established at the time not until after Midian. Midian was the starting point then cruelty then so on.

100% correct

Agreed dudes a beast man. But I have to say the drummer they found after him was just as good the left handed candid DVD is fucking amazing his drum skills showed alot man. But nick has him by a few steps especially his technique it's unmatchable man for this type of music there is and only will be one cradle of filth this is it I'd say cradle from 94 to 2005 is the greatest black metal band of that era better than behemoth better than mayhem better than dimmu period. His lyricism is unmatchable man. Dani fucking filth man

Me parece que a los 3:19 pierde un poco el tiempo y se debe meter Danny sobre el coro para rectificar. En definitiva es un pequeño detalle que se arregló rápidamente. Debe ser muy complejo mantener ese ritmo en una canción que dura tanto y tiene tantos cambios de velocidad.

Nick barker was also in BLINK 182 right??

That would be Travis Barker (American drummer). Nick Barker (English drummer) is a whole different thing. Both great drummers in their own respective domain.

Yep. Cuz Nick Barker's on the drums.

Fuch yeah! Take me backkkkk I wanna be in that crowd again...but why have they changed their gigs so much? I use to love the performers they had last time I saw them they was in a small venue.

[@michaelglindmyer3336]

Stuart, Nick and Les were the reason why cradle was so good

[@eliogutural.]

The best Cradle of Filth concert and the most grotesque album I started listening to when I was 16 years old, I'm 37 now and it's the album I've fallen in love with.

[@Polyinstrumentalism]

For the bass nerds out there, Robin is definitly playing a 1978-1980 Aria SB1000. Same model that Cliff Burton played (although he also used a SB Black 'n Gold), but an older vintage. You can tell from the old-style headstock, which resembled a pair of bat wings. Gem of a bass, and totally appropriate for COF's visual aesthetic!

[@lydiarey262]

never seen a singer with such a vocal range... amazing

[@megarockfreak]

At one festival I saw 3 artists with the highest vocal range. Corey taylor, Dani Filth and the highest vocal range was... The singer of Faith no more. I was amazed by hearing that. But I agree back in the 90's Dani was the best singer ever!

[@Ballad2Grave]

Mike Patton, Corey Taylor, Dani Filth, Dero Goi and Ville Valo are my favorite singers their range is sick! Seeing Mike, Dani and Corey at the same festival is like the best thing ever!

[@NeonBlazeMusic]

He doesn't have a "range" live. He can shriek high. On record he somehow records the low end vocals too, but when he does them live they sound flat and about an octave higher than on the recording.

[@johndee5892]

BULLSHIT!!!!! LORD KAIPHAIS WHO SANG ON THE CAINIAN CHRONICLE AND MAD GRANDIOSE BLOODFIENDS EX ANCIENT IS ALMOST IDENTICAL WITH DANI

[@stefanmoravcik598]

Nicholas Barker, the mighty Hammer Of The Gods! Interestingly, for all the heat he and the producer of Cruelty had taken for that weird drum sound on this particular album, here at Astoria, his snare actually sounded OK, much similar to the one used in their 1999 EP From The Cradle To Enslave 5th track Funeral in Carpathia (Be Quick or Be Dead Version). Now imagine if this same snare sound had been used on Cruelty...

[@harrydresden4661]

Listen to the remixed version of cruelty that came out last year. They fixed the drums.

@@andrepereira744 completamente de acordo contigo. E já ando a dizer essa merda há anos e anos (praticamente desde o Midian)

[@andrepereira744]

Jaime Nôro Desde que ele saiu,então! Sem desrespeito aos outros músicos que passaram na bateria,o gajo era/é o maior.

[@JaimeNoro]

@@andrepereira744 o gajo é um talento do caraças. Há muita malta que elogia o trabalho dele noutras bandas mais tarde, mas eu acho q ele nessa fase já se estava a deixar levar naquela da corrida para ver quem era mais rápido. Durante o tempo de Cradle o gajo tinha um estilo extremamente refinado e dinâmico. Só era rápido quando tinha de ser. Devias checkar um podcast do Stuart Anstis (aquele guitarrista alto da altura do Dusk e do Cruelty) que anda aí na net. O gajo fala sobre toda a experiência que teve com os Cradle nesses que para mim foram os melhores anos da banda.

[@martinskull6868]

Saw them right on this Cruelty tour in 98, with NapalmDeath and Borknagar supporting the gig. Amazing line up here, I also met and got a sticker signed by the great “Hammer of the Gods” Nick Barker!! Great memories. Recently I appreciated cryptoriana, some true old vibes!
