Paul Allender is not only known worldwide as the main songwriter and guitarist of CRADLE OF FILTH, but also as a very talented artist with his Vomitorium Art.

Over the last few years, Metal Shock Finland‘s Tarja Virmakari has interviewed Paul a couple of times and just four days ago she had the pleasure to welcome him back to talk about his latest news. The three main topics that were talked about were Paul’s online guitar lessons, Vomitorium Art and of course Cradle Of Filth and their latest album, The Manticore And Other Horrors. Paul also talks about his other ongoing projects, about his favourite dishes and reveals that today he’s a happy man.
