Cradle of Filth – Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa – Vinyl LP

Gatefold Sleeve, Reissue

One of the most infamous & notorious names in metal, Cradle Of Filth continue to shock, excite, disgust & inspire in equal measure.

‘Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa’ was the band’s ninth studio album; a gothic horror themed slay-ride of fervour & perversion. Set amidst the orchestral melodrama & lush, cinematic production, there sits stalwart a ravening beast of furious riffing, flesh ripping vocals & monstrous, unstoppable percussion. Described by Cradle’s infamous frontman Dani Filth as “without doubt the fastest & most brutal album we’ve created to date.”

Grammy-nominated Cradle Of Filth have been pioneers of extreme music since their debut in 1994 & have continued to evolve with each of their subsequent releases. Unafraid of ruffling a few feathers, the band have continually refused to bow to convention or to conform to prevalent trends & fads. Yet despite this uncompromising stance, the band are still the most successful British heavy metal band since Iron Maiden, with legions of fans around the globe.

This edition of ‘Darkly Darkly Venus Aversa’ is presented on double black vinyl with gatefold sleeve including lyrics.
