The British extreme metal institution on an extensive European tour.
Cradle Of Filth, born from the depths of hell three decades ago, are undisputed giants in heavy metal. Led by Dani Filth, they combine dark, extreme metal with gothic horror and have made a name for themselves as both a creative force and a live sensation. The NECROMANTIC FANTASIES tour can be experienced live in five German cities in summer 2024: Hanover (24 June, MusikZentrum), Saarbrücken (28 June, Garage), Cham (30 July, LA Cham), Bochum (13 August, Matrix Tube) and Dresden (14 August, Alter Schlachthof). The presale starts on Wednesday, 14 February 2024 at 12 noon exclusively at CTS & myticket.
From early works like The Principle Of Evil Made Flesh to recent successes like Cryptoriana - The Seductiveness Of Decay, the band defies norms and creates a unique world of greatness. Despite line-up changes, their catalogue is thriving, as their latest album Existence Is Futile proves.
Recorded in the midst of the pandemic, the album explores existential horror and societal decay. Despite the chaos, Cradle Of Filth's creativity thrives as they continue to develop their distinctive sound with mesmerising melodies and dark themes. The album's bonus tracks, featuring the haunting vocals of Doug Bradley, add even more depth and tackle social issues with Cradle Of Filth's trademark flair.
Existence Is Futile turns out to be Cradle Of Filth's strongest album to date, combining intense energy with complex arrangements. It is a sonic journey through darkness and provides a soundtrack for these turbulent times. As Dani aptly puts it: ‘Be like the virus! Mutate and survive!’
