CRADLE OF FILTH have updated their official website (www.cradleoffilth.com) with the following tour report:

“Sun 31 October - Quebec, Le Capitol Theatre

Arrived in the city centre very early. No problem with the border and we slept through it all. Quebec was beautiful and the Hallowe'en atmosphere was in full swing with Pumpkins outside all the houses. This was a sold out show and a great venue. We had a chance to see the full stage production for the first time. We played an hour and 30 minutes set, including three new tracks from Nymphetamine. Older tracks included ‘Principle of Evil Made Flesh', 'Funeral in Carpathia' and 'Tortured Soul Asylum' from Midian. The show reveals a whole new stage show which features projections and relies on more focus on the band and an incredible light show. Local support bands were Blinded By Faith and MoonLyght. Not a bad show and played an extended set to warm up for the HBB tour. James smashed his guitar on his way off-stage in a rock & roll tantrum.

Hallowe'en Set List: ‘Satyriasis (Intro)’, ‘Gilded Cunt’, ‘Nemesis’, ‘The Principle Of Evil Made Flesh’, ‘Tortured Soul Asylum’, ‘Mannequin’, ‘Funeral In Carpathia’, ‘Her Ghost In the Fog’, ‘Nymphetamine’, ‘The Forest Whispers My Name’, ‘The Promise Of Fever’, ‘Cruelty Brought Three Orchids’ and‘From The Cradle To Enslave’.

Mon 1st November - Ottawa, Capital Music Hall

Noon load in and we are all up bright and early 'cos of jet lag. Quarter of yesterdays venue size, but officially still a warm up show. Support bands Necronomicon and Blood of Christ were good. Played the same long set again to get our stamina up. Low crowd size tonight due to age restriction's but still had a great show. Managed most of stage production in a cut down version to fit the small stage. That's something we made sure of this tour, adaptable stage design, as last year we had to compromise nearly every day and ended up only having the full production in half the venues.

Wed 3rd Nov - New Haven, Toad's Place

Beautiful town (next to Yale university). Me and Dani visited the local cemetery in the afternoon which read at the gateway 'The dead shall be Raised'. How macabre! Small warm up show before tomorrow's HHB debut. Very loud crowd and great gig. No age restriction this time, thankfully. This was like the smallest venue of the whole tour and we still managed to put on a great show for the fans. Set list remained the long version. Visited by our Roadrunner A+R guru Mike Gitter. Watched the new version of Dawn Of The Dead on DVD for the first time and thought it was great.

Thu 4th Nov - Sayreville NJ, Starland Ballroom

Start of the MTV HeadBangersBall tour. Photo-shoot for Revolver mag which meant us sound-checking in our make-up. The support bands must have thought we were well gay. Unfortunately, my personally endorsed tour faves Seattle's Himsa missed this show due to a week long of travel problems and missed it by only 20 minutes. Lorenzo and Paul from Sworn Enemy and Billy Graziadei from Biohazard visited. Dropped 'Tortured Soul Asylum' for early curfew. There is a new game some of the band members have picked up from our sound guy Paul Collis. This involves getting someone to look at a hand sign. If they see it, they get a punch. I can't wait for our guitarist Paul Allender to get involved as he's nearing his Black belt in Karate. Sarah Jezebel Deva is covered in bruises. She does give as good as she gets though. Me and Martin hung with Bleeding Through and Himsa guys later. I met Mike Amott from Arch Enemy again for the first time since 1996. It's good to be touring again with our old sound man Dave Nuttbrown, who now works for Arch Enemy.

Fri 5th Nov - Philadelphia, Electric Factory

This is the same venue that Type O Negative covered us in 1,000 toilet rolls on the final show of last years 'Blood for the Blood Gods' tour. Amazing how time flies. Tonight all bands played for the first time. Me and Martin managed to check out them all. Great. Pretty tired as we all did MTV in NYC early in the morning. We got to go into town in the afternoon to get out of the venue/soundcheck boredom. Spent some money. Bam (of Jackass fame) came to see us. All is going good. Also visited by Jed from Strapping young Lad (who also plays that stoopid punching game). Sarah paid back our monitor guy Keith for stealing one of her CD's by putting some used underwear under his pillow and sold all his cigarettes! What a nice group of people we are surrounded by. Set off for Worcester around 3am. Believe it or not, I've not visited Wal-mart or Denny's once yet on this tour!

Sat 6th Nov - Worcester, Palladium

This was the venue of the first 'Blood gods' tour last year. Seems like yesterday. No way as cold outside (my first mention of the weather by the way!) as last year I remember my hands were blue. Got out to a huge comic store and picked up a Glen E Friedman book called Fuck Your Heroes. Changed tonights set list which featured 'Twisted Nails of Faith' as a one off. Good solid show and had the full stage production for the first time since Hallowe'en. Had a busy night due to press commitments and meet & greet's after the show.”

In other COF news, the band will take part in an in-store autograph signing session on November 22nd from 6 - 8:30 PM at Independent Records in Denver, CO. The store is located at 937 E. Colfax St. - Denver, CO 80218.
