CRADLE OF FILTH frontman Dani Filth discusses the band's video for 'Lilith Immaculate' in a new interview with the Houston Press. An excerpt is available below:

Q: Is there any country left on earth that you think would actually show this music video on regular television? Have we moved so beyond that that artists can now just say, "Fuck it! Let's get the girl's tops off and slit some throats. The FCC isn't ever going to see it anyway." Are artists like yourself now thinking exclusively YouTube and DVD release when you make music videos?

Dani Filth: "Libya? Abu Dhabi? The Cayman Isles? It was a surprise a few years ago having just finished a full length horror movie entitled Cradle Of Fear that the video for it, which was basically the goriest parts of the movie sliced into a story-based portmanteau, was played in it's entirety in most of Europe, despite us cutting a more 'MTV friendly' version which still managed to get banned.

I remember sitting in a bar in Belgium with our then-drummer, sipping a Grolsch and then practically spitting it out having spotted the uncut video (replete with sliced wrists and an exposed vagina) playing on a popular daytime channel. And in hindsight, I'm not that surprised as we are talking European! No fucking PMRC.

Nowadays there are less restrictions, and rightfully so in our opinion, as several of our prior videos have been tamed down by our record companies in order to score a buck, whether we liked it or not, and to not much purpose as they only teetered on borderline subversive anyway."

A follow-on from last year’s triumphant Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa album, Evermore Darkly will arrive as a CD/DVD package including new tracks and rarities, with a lengthy on-the-road documentary and ten songs filmed live at this year's Graspop metal meet, as well as the video for 'Lilith Immaculate'.

The CD features brand new musical beast ‘Thank Your Lucky Stars’, plus a special remix of ‘Forgive Me Father’, courtesy of Rob C from ANTHRAX, an extended rendition of ‘Lilith Immaculate', as well as tempered demo versions of three ‘Darkly, Darkly…’ songs. The mini-album closes with a special taster from Cradle Of Filth’s impending orchestral project, in the form of a haunting, classic reworking of fan-favourite, ‘Summer Dying Fast’.

The ‘Evermore Darkly’ DVD contains footage from Summer 2011, when Cradle Of Filth embarked on a rapid spat of tours, accompanied by two eager filmmakers. The resulting documentary, 'You Can't Polish A Turd, But You Can Roll It In Glitter', combined with performance and interview footage culminates in a forty five minute film of the not so glamorous reality of life in a touring band at work and play, as they trawl their way across Europe over eight performances. The DVD includes an interview with ghoul-guide Dani Filth, interspersed and peppered with live footage and backstage shenanigans, culminating in the entire hour long set from this year's highly anticipated Graspop festival appearance.

Dani states that it is 'a much-loved musical stop-gap between albums, a pleasure treasure trove of wild and wicked wonders primed especially for fans. Something for them to sink their teeth into this Autumn as the Cradle invasion fleet is primed for future contagion….'
