news life in black cradle of filth

CRADLE OF FILTH vocalist Dani Filth, pictured below in "Silly Bejewelled Face" mode, has written "a tour diary of sorts" dated December 13th, an excerpt follows:

"The second day in Italy is in Milan and aside from a trip to the local supermarket with Caroline to buy Tom from GOD SEED a birthday present (you can never fail with a good bottle of booze), it passes quite pleasantly in the venue undertaking the usual day's shenanigans before a killer show full of anger and grit. The audience are awesome again, and the other bands play well, a show afforded by the side balcony that runs along the venue to an upstairs lounge at the back, where the support acts are situated for the best part of the day.

After the show we all head up there to celebrate not only the King Of Hell's birthday, but the last show of the tour for DARKENED, who unfortunately are only doing the first half of the tour, the rest belonging to a band from Cyprus called BLYND. Milan is Darkened's city, so their parents have supplied home made wine, cheeses, meat and bread for the evening and everyone chats and parties until the venue eventually shrugs us off when the drivers are ready to leave at the designated hour of two am, destination France.

It's a shame that Darkened have to leave the tour as over the last three weeks or so we have grown quite accustomed to their brand of symphonic black metal, but we have kept contacts so people may be seeing them play with Cradle a lot sooner than one might think. For the time being the show must go on, which is a little ironic, seeing as due to a booking error by the promoter, we now have three days off before our next show."
