This song inspired me to start learning guitar at age 17, still back in 2009. Now I am approaching 29, and I still play guitar and am in a band now. Without this song here, I would not have dared, so thank you big time for the motivation.
My rough take at it, though the audio is really bad thanks to the crowd's shouting: All around us is the sky We are free We are the moon and the sea We are exhumed from pillars of ice and envelop thee I am a creature of the moon
Getting old is a natural process of humankind and change of his sound is inevitible. Even though this is sad it's fine. What is not is their change of seeing their music. They used to believe in what they do about all these poetric and literall lyrics and complex melodies. After nympthetamine all seems like heartless relaeses with the prime purpose of money. So sad. Videos like these helps me remember the old CoF and makes me smile. It's an amazing job what Ice Knight did.
Wow, Dani's voice was freaking shrill. This was the best they were almost. I think their prime was when Gian first joined though. But this video, and song, is just cool.
Same way I feel! I love cradle of filth no matter the album! They are just amazing. And every album is different yet true to them. The contents are all dark. The sound changed from gothic black metal to more symphonic and then over time to death and then back to their earlier sound, so it's just that they kept changing and changing and in the end they are extreme metal taking influences from everywhere and I appreciate everything they do!!! :D HAIL CRADLE OF FILTH!!!! GODS OF METAL!!! :D
"I watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls my name The trees are growing restless, they feel the seasons change Their fruit has putrified, forbidden once and bound to die The thread of life lies severed, on the brink of paradise" yyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now If Cradle Was Still Like That I Would Still Like Them Dont Really Like Them For There Fewer Cds But Their New One Is An Improvement So Hope They Get Back To The Old School.
@AppalachianKnight77 They don't even claim that. Look at the interview with the bands. Dani always says that they are classified as Gothic metal. however, he did say that his first album was heavily influenced by Norwegian black metal, but then they found their own style after this album. Also, they cross genres really. They got black metal screaming, death metal growls, gothic and doom metal feelings. Basically, they are extreme metal, but not pure black metal.
On October they're going to release the cd/dvd "Evermore Darkly". We'll get the first song from Midnight in the Labyrinth: Summer Dying Fast orchestral version!
me gusta bastante esta grabación, el primer album de cradle of filth es escencia pura... ojo...cradle of filth no dejó de ser buena por la comercialización de la banda ni porque se hubieran vendido, sino porque nada de lo que hagan volvera siquiera a estar cerca del principle of evil made flesh...cradle of filth en los primeros 90´s parecia una bandad que sería leyenda...lastima que perdieron todos sus ideales musicales...
@KaraSouvSoury I tell people, it's not traditional Black Metal that hates contemporary Cradle of Filth but it's the fact that Cradle of Filth have vigorously changed their stance on Black Metal yet still claim the genre.
@angelicbaby92 It's actually kind of complicated , EVEN if Dani never claimed that they were Black Metal he obviously didn't do anything to clear up the misconception. Listen to their own biographical cd "Maximum Filth" (which came out in 2,000) in which the narrator speaks of Cradle of Filth as "a British Black Metal" band. And that was in 2,000 after the release of From the Cradle to Enslave and around the time of the release of Midian. And most times I have heard them labeled as Black Metal
iceKnight, i must say uve impressed me so much with these old videos, are u able to hook me up with the videos so i dont need to depend on youtube to see such a beautiful thing?
@AppalachianKnight77 I get what you're saying, but the band itself classifies themselves as gothic metal (not solely). They say extreme gothic metal basically, but they have a bit of black metal elements. I was spending an hour looking through youtube interviews and I simply cannot find the interview! Maybe it was in a documentary! I'm sorry, but I do clearly remember that Dani did say that to clear up the misconception. I can't find it. :[ Hopefully, you believe me. haha.
@angelicbaby92 well yeah, I don't know what to say, Maximum Filth (look it up on Amazon) deems them Black Metal, Rhapsody deems them black metal and I have been a fan since 1998 and have heard them called BM among fans, magazines and websites ever since the release of Cruelty and the Beast so if that has "changed" then it's been in recent years. Even in 09' when CoF toured "Satyr" of Satyricon said (between songs) "we and Cradle, the Black metal powerhouses are back to the states!"
If you had a reap knowledge of black metal, you would know they aren't traditional black metal. They have influences for sure, but they are so many other things...
wow, nvr heard old cof b4 so i decided to look up the oldest live performance i could find and shit, this is fuckin way better then the new shit. You could just feel the hate coming from danis voice. but im not baggin on their newer stuff, thats all still pretty brutal. eh, rambling. hard not to when you're stoned i guess XD
See, this is what I mean. I never get an answer, people always say they sold out and never say why. So from now on I'm assuming people are just saying that and don't know what they're talking about.
So cool seeing old school Paul Allender here! used to be my number one guitar hero!
old cradle of filth...i miss them so much
its not that i dont like the new albums
look at them! i love this band...my favorite band!

3:52 Poem towards end: "All around us is the sky. . . . . We are the moon and the sea. . .. I am a creature of the moon." All I could catch!!! :D
My rough take at it, though the audio is really bad thanks to the crowd's shouting:
All around us is the sky
We are free
We are the moon and the sea
We are exhumed from pillars of ice and envelop thee
I am a creature of the moon
One of my favorite CoF songs. Love the slow part at the end of it. Thats true CoF, not that comercial stuff they do these days.
love dani´s screaming in the begining !!! one of my favorites, besides heaven torn asunder
if cof put out only 3 albums they wouldve been black metal legends and im sure of it.
I miss Robin in Cradle

imo they lost the plot after Midian :/

Before the showbusiness took over..... great stuff!
Thank you whoever filmed this

"I watch the storm approaching, the darkness calls my name

The thread of life lies severed, on the brink of paradise"
yyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!
amazing cradle needs to make another album like the principle of evil made flesh...like thats ever gonna happen...
i love this song keyboard
Dani...*hot damn*!!! Met him last year.
Nearly fainted.
sono commosso. i have no words. 1994....
We expect the same attitude and passion towards their music to continue, aging is a natural process; getting stupid and greedy for money is not.
Better than new Cradle!
absolutely GODS.
This song is one of their best!
Also the second version (from Bitter Suites to Succubi) is wonderful.
ahhh original dani so great
oh man this makes my heart melt
I'm not being an asshole, i love cradle of filth. I'm just saying they sound so much more better with their newer stuff.
Damn it, almost 20 years!! I miss the good old days, I miss CoF!!
WOAU THIS STYLE OF CRADLE OF FILTH IS VERY GOOD, I LIKE
this is the real cradle!!! yah!!!
Now If Cradle Was Still Like That I Would Still Like Them Dont Really Like Them For There Fewer Cds But Their New One Is An Improvement So Hope They Get Back To The Old School.
sooooo awesome
thank you
I miss old CoF :[ They went totally downhill after 2003
What a poetic recital at the end. :D
i wish they stayed this way
It's weird when I think that I was only 5 when this was filmed, then five years later I found out cradle of filth existed.
I love the beginning of this song
Back when they were crazy and badass as hell. Wish they didnt change.
Cradle of Filth will always be 2nd Generation Black Metal
W00t, more decent old-skool Cradle! Nice one.
Cradle dans ses meilleurs jours
So geil! Damals hat er sich noch viel fieser angehört als heute!
nice dude.. like always
THANK YOU, for agreeing and having some sense.
their master piece!!!!!!!
@AppalachianKnight77 They don't even claim that. Look at the interview with the bands.

iceKnight, i must say uve impressed me so much with these old videos, are u able to hook me up with the videos so i dont need to depend on youtube to see such a beautiful thing?
Ye olde Cradle Of Filth was the best thing that the Devil himself created :p Thy souls shall be theirs!
FUCKING CRADLE OF FILTH FOREVER!
@FrozenCrucifix still best fucking extreme metal band of all time dude.... dont be ashamed for Cof of this time...
@AppalachianKnight77 I get what you're saying, but the band itself classifies themselves as gothic metal (not solely).

Holy sshit, it had more of a black metal sound back then.
@angelicbaby92 well yeah, I don't know what to say, Maximum Filth (look it up on Amazon) deems them Black Metal, Rhapsody deems them black metal and I have been a fan since 1998 and have heard them called BM among fans, magazines and websites ever since the release of Cruelty and the Beast so if that has "changed" then it's been in recent years.

If you had a reap knowledge of black metal, you would know they aren't traditional black metal. They have influences for sure, but they are so many other things...
They all looks so different in corpsepaint and normal clothes...
wow, nvr heard old cof b4 so i decided to look up the oldest live performance i could find and shit, this is fuckin way better then the new shit. You could just feel the hate coming from danis voice. but im not baggin on their newer stuff, thats all still pretty brutal.
eh, rambling. hard not to when you're stoned i guess XD
Hahahahaah. Beautiful comment. Newbie.

Major Hugh Jass
I wish Dani was still this hot today =(
What a cutie
4 for me
early stuff is way more thrashy and brutal
See, this is what I mean. I never get an answer, people always say they sold out and never say why. So from now on I'm assuming people are just saying that and don't know what they're talking about.
wow is the better sing
i had no idea there this old fucking hell
