More Cradle Of Filth More Cradle Of Filth

One of the most iconic goth black metal bands on the planet, Cradle Of Filth, are once again making their way back to Australia this year, it has been announced today.

No strangers to Australian shores, the band have a feverish following of devoted heavy metal lovers and given the evil brilliance of their live show it's no surprise.

It has been over 20 years since the band formed now, but they're still managing to make music that's poetic and dark and music that gives you something to sink your teeth into.

The band just dropped their tenth studio album, The Manticore & Other Horrors, and is another masterfully ornate metal release, the band once again bringing in plenty of orchestration as well as retaining a real sense of aggression and power.
