Cradle of Filth Album Details 2006-05-05 by Shadows | 11 Comments | Recently, the title of Cradle of Filth's eighth studio album leaked. Titled "Thornography", Dani Filth himself comments on the meaning of the new title, as well as its release:
"This title represents mankind's obsession with sin and self. The thorn combines images of that which troubled Christ, the crown of thorns, thus intimating man's seeming desire to hurt God and also, of the protecting thorn and the need to enclose a secret place or the soul from attack. An addiction to self-punishment or something equally poisonous. A mania. Twisted desires. Barbed dreams. A fetish. An obsession with cruelty. Savage nature. Paganism over Christianity. The title can also represent a sexual attraction to religious iconography as in the case of the 'possessed' Lourdon nuns.
"I like the title because to me it invokes images of a darker, sexier pre-Raphaelite scene wherein Sleeping Beauty's castle is won and she is awoken by a poisonous kiss. A darker adult faerytale."
As previously reported, "Thornography" is scheduled for release on September 19 via Roadrunner Records. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include "Libertina Grim", "Tonight in Flames", "Cemetery and Sundown", "I Am the Thorn", "The Byronic Man" (featuring guest vocals from H.I.M.'s Ville Valo) and "Temptation".
The follow-up to 2004's "Nymphetamine", "Thornography" was recorded at Lincolnshire, England's Chapel studios with producer Rob Caggiano (BLEEDING THROUGH, ANTHRAX).
"I'm not saying it's 'experimental,' but we're definitely testing the limits of what we can do," CRADLE frontman Dani Filth recently told Revolver magazine about the new CD. "This is our sixth or seventh record, so we're trying to spice things up to keep the marriage going!"
"We were hungry to write again," Filth added. Once we finished all our tours [in 2005], we spent the summer just writing. Nobody really throught about where it was going, which is why I think it's really fresh sounding. A lot of the songs are really rhythmical — thrashy, almost — but they're all also really catchy."

Some bands really need to find new themes.

I have high hopes for this album. If it's anything like Nymphetamine, it'll be good.This Message Edited On 05.06.06

You bet your sorry ass it won't be good.
| | |
I'll be getting this. New Cradle songs always excite.
| | |
HIM's vocalist is singing with Dani?? o now that is just C R A P
| | |
ya i cant stand HIMS vocalist
| | |
I really doubt that a very brief moment of singing from someone who isn't in the band will bring the album down. Everyone seems to be immediately dismissing the album because Ville Valo is on it (not here, thankfully) and it's really infuriating.

how can someone who dresses like that speak about god, there music is basically awful, it was highly mausing when he got continuosly ripped on never mind the buzzcocks.
| | |
I pretty much loathe anything after Midian.
Dusk And Her Embrace pretty much owns in my opinion though. But I know they'll never go back to that, so whatever.
| | |
I wonder if this one will be as frekin awesome as the last? I also wonder when the Cradle Bible will be released, if it hasn't already.
| | |
Ok this one will be great along with the rest of there's. Cradle of Filth always has thrashing music with amazing lyrics. These guys are awsome. If certain people can see past the HIM vocalist thing and see that this is just like the rest. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
