Cradle Of Filth Godspeed New Album

Posted by Paul Travers Jul 31, 2008

The album is based on the life of the notorious Gilles De Rais, who was hanged in 1440 for allegedly murdering upwards of 80 people.

Says Cradle Of Filth frontman Dani Filth: "By far this is our most extreme, dramatic and deeply disturbing album to date. The legend of Gilles de Rais has been given fresh, vampyrical life in this conceptual meisterwerk, swathed in pitch-black magic and a viciousness unsurpassed in the annals of Cradle history. Screw what our detractors say, everyone who has heard this album has bruised their jaws on the pentagram-bejewelled floor."
