Don't agree, Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa is a good album tho I like Godspeed a lot more. I wonder how their next album will sound

Dani mentioned Cradle Of Filth's new album is not conceptual at all PLUS Paul mentioned COF are going to their old roots with this new album.

Ya well they can say whatever they want about returning to their roots, it doesn't mean the album will be any good.
Metallica's "return" with Death Magnetic is more than proof of that.

I highly doubt they'll go back to playing boring, lo-fi death metal

Yeah, well, that's what they said about Darkly, Darkly. Turns out that was anything other than returning to the roots.

Last one was so boring and absolutely awful! it was huge disappointment after Godspeed... which is their best since Midian imo...so I kind off lost interest in this new one, but after watching their performance at Wacken this year, I really do hope they can do it right again....Dani has his scream back on track and this new girl knows how to handle vocals/keyboards...

It's good. But that's it. As I've said earlier: today's Cradle just doesn't do it for me anymore. It's fine, there's some great moments. But I feel they've done the best they can, years ago.

Great album, and the best work they have done since the midian days. People will hate it, and people will love it (as always with a cradle release..). I love it though!

This is a straightforward COF album without all of the 'Theatricals'. It hard not to compare every new COF release with their old material, but it reminds me of 'Numphetamine with the Guitar melodies and Keyboards and the Heaviness of GodSpeed. COF has delivered another solid record.
This is simply just my opinion, but i do feel as COF has been getting a little too comfortable with their sound. This is like i said a 'Solid release', but i was hoping to have heard something on a another level. COF will always be a 'Love or Hate' group and i still support them after all these years 
The Manticore & Other Horrors 7.5 / 10

The biggest problem with this is that it doesn't offer anything new (with the tiny exception of Dani's odd screams). The melodies and styles of Nymphe-Thorno (punk 'n thrash influences to this album come from there) fused with the Škaroupka era's always-the-same drumming + Dani's spitting routines = you pretty much get Manticore. Okey, that would be decent, but the songwriting (and Album-Writing!) is just too one-dimensional, predictable, lacking almost all the rainbows of emotions. Where are the details? Where's the fun?

Funny album, and just good... nothing else special about it. Godspeed was better.

For old cradle lovers, you should check Obscurcis Romancia.

Holy Shit that band is good. Props for letting people know about them! Seems like all the best sympho black is incredibly underground.

don't get me wrong, its fun to listen to it, listenable and enjoyable like all COF albums (except Thornography :/ ), but nothing special about it... I think that Godspeed was better than Manticore.

IMO, everything after Nymphetamine was pretty bland. This one is no exception. Can't get into it.

Very good album, having in mind that he had taken his brother bassist - family group

That's because as soon as a Symphonic BM band gets some popularity it turns into sell out not-so-black metal with cheesy keyboards.

Nothing new on this album, i gave it few spins and nothing.
Don't know why but listening gave me the impression i was still listening Darkly, Darkly Venus Aversa, the same 'mood'.
Godspeed was much better

What happened to his voice? (This is the 1st I've heard from them since Dusk and Cruelty.)
