Cradle Of Filth - Reveal New Album Title And Cover Art, New Song Available For Download


Original news, published on 03.08.2010

While I could have sworn the upcoming Cradle Of Filth album would be called All Hallows Eve, the band now revealed it will be Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa instead.

Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa will be released in North America on November 9 via Nuclear Blast Records. The record will be available in European stores on October 22 through Peaceville Records on the band's own AbraCadaver.

In an April press release, Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa was described as "a full-blown concept album, based on Adam's first wife, the lascivious Demoness Lilith; throwing Medieval nuns, Knights Templars, Greek mythology and lashings of sex, occult lore and violent bloodshed into the smelting pot, to create a darkly erotic nightmare set to their unique scope of supreme vampyric metal."


UPDATE

Cradle Of Filth have revealed the cover artwork for the upcoming Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa album.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw it.

A full blown concept album huh? I think it'd be worth mentioning if that WEREN'T the case, but, seeing how it always is, I fail to see why that's worth mentioning.

Awesome, reminds me of DVDA, Trey Parker's band Double Vaginal Double Anal. If you don't know them check out their song 'Chewbacca.'

Ahahah. Well spoken.

When I first read the album title I thought it was a joke... Don't know why but this came to my mind as I read it: "Something something something Dark Side"... lol

Venus aversa:
Coital position where the lovers are front to back ; penetration from the rear . Coined in the 1960s; seldom heard today.

Then, what's that Darkly Darkly.. twice

Um, wow.
This is probably gonna be the most "gothic erotica" album CoF has made. Dani's obsessed with that stuff.

Why did they have to double the word "darkly"??? It could have been a good title if it hadn't sounded like Gollum "filthy, filthy, nasty, nasty..."

Maybe the band were watching Lord Of The Rings when they came up with the title...

What a "great" title.

you mean "great great" title.

not sure why revealing an album title is particularly amazing. am i the only one who doesn't really give a fuck? if i like the band, cover art is nice (it's a visual thing), but for the most part just saying "the new album will drop August 30th" is the biggest thing to me.

at least COF also reveals the thematic concept with the press release. nice to provide a little "meat".

@Barry: What a description indeed! LOL

A while ago, I had kinda lost my hopes for COF's future but nowadays, I'm soo looking forward to listening to their new album! The title itself doesn't sound very promising but according to the description, the new release is going to be bad ass! I assume Cradle are back to their usual stuff in a unique way - just how they used to write music back in the day they weren't blinded by the idea of conquering North America and joining Nuclear-fucking-Blast. Seriously, they did take some wrong steps in their career but I really hope those mistakes will stay in the past...

You better start lowering those hopes.

Or... just listen to the last album and hope that it is something along those lines.
I trust they'll make this another great album, especially after this new song.

Why is your nick Metalomorphis?
Stupid question? So is yours. They can name their album whatever they like. Picking on the double "darkly" is completely puerile...
