Cradle of Filth

I know a lot of people don't like them much, because they're borderline mainstream I'm sure lol. But COF happens to be my favorite band.

Anybody going to the concert in a few weeks? Also thoughts on the new album. I was very relieved to see a return from the Thornography days *shudders* that cd was so terrible I almost cried. They've outdone themselves with this newest though, and Dani's signature vocals are back.

I used to LOVE cradle. I have seen them a few times, they put on a cool show, but I stopped listening to them after Damnation and a Day...they started going down hill. The only 2 albums of theres I still concider to be good are Cruelty and the Beast and Miidian. If I were younger I would be pumped and probably go, but ive grown out of them.

I'm going. My friends' band Shadowveil is opening up.

Speaking of which, if anybody wants to avoid the ticketmaster fees and support Michigan metal, send me a PM and I'll tell you how to get in contact with them. They have a limited supply of tickets they need to sell before the show.

Tickets from them are only $20. Show is 1/23/09. Doors are at 5:00pm.

See you guys there!

I remember seeing those guys back in 98 or 99, something like that. I definitely had to see them since their keyboardist at the time, Martin, was from bands like My Dying Bride and Anathema. Is he still their keyboardist? That would be cool to see them live again. I still have photos with them and some of the crew like this with Martin:

Now I'm one of those people who just listen to the music, I know Dani cuz everyone does... but I had NO IDEA the keyboardist was from My Dying Bride! That's another one of my favorite bands! Who woulda thunk.

I'll have to just start following that keyboardist around, I guess. Evidently I like his work.

Also last cradle concert at harpos it was mainly fetish-wear for the show. I'm thinkin my witchy wardrobe will stand out and grant me back-stage passes on the spot, of course =P

Shit I wanna go but I am stuck in Big, Rapids....when is this and where? I haven't missed a show yet but I was always in Milwaukee before.

These guys are the best band live but damn Dani is so heavy to hold up. Oh and the keyboard player has changed around alot. Man this could be the first show of their that I attend without acid in my system so I could remember everything...especialy where all those cigarette burns came from.

I love Cradle of Filth, but this made me laugh..... a lot.

It's from the British sit-com "The IT Crowd".

Link doesn't work, unfortunately.

Also I'll admit 'Cradle of Fear' was hilarious. If it was supposed to be seductive in any way it failed terribly. I just can't get out of the mind the goth chick saying she's gonna let him "cum all over" her "tits". Lol so trashy.

Anyways I don't find Dani attractive unless he's broadcasting the band's decision to release a new album =P

And the show is January 23rd at Harpos, less than two weeks. I'd get your tickets quickly if you can. The whole shebang is starting around 5, but Cradle shouldn't be going on till 7 or 8.

I guess I should go ahead and get them thru Ticketbastard. Isn't there a way to get them without the hassle of fees though? I don't think you can even get them at Harpos unless you go there on a concert night.

Ehhh not sure about that. I know Harpos continues to sell tickets on the night of, and you could try direct from Cradle's site but I'm not sure.

Dani Filth splashed his water right on my chest... now I have said water bottle. Lol he threw it and nobody went for it, plus I was So thirsty with no money to spare. So I drank what was left and felt obliged to keep it as a memento at least for a few months.

Also great t-shirts. Great concert over all. I love those assholes. lol some kid in line behind me said he asked for Dani's autograph when nobody else was around and the guy was a prick about it. That's why I tend to idolize music, not the stars who create it.

Dani? A prick? Hell no! Did he even ask the right guy? I will ask him about it when he gets here...if the wind doesn't destroy their bus on the way over...

What was the playlist like?
