Album Review: Cradle Of Filth - Cryptoriana - The Seductiveness Of Decay

Without question Cradle Of Filth sit comfortably in the realms of the greatest metal bands of all time, a place they earned by giving their fans exactly what they want, every single time.

While there has certainly been solid variation between albums, Cradle's many adoring fans across the globe know basically what they're going to get with each new album. And Cryptoriana gives it to them in droves. It's darker than hell, it's frantic and frenetic, the musicianship and production are top-notch and, of course, there is the screeching, howling, insane voice and presence of main man Dani Filth. If you love Cradle, you will adore their 12th album.
