Three of the most divisive extreme metal bands all rolled into one. :P
Permalink Reply by Nutsack of Filth on August 19, 2012 at 2:05 I was going to mention Behemoth, too. Maybe any three-member extreme metal photo looks similar, I don't know.
Permalink Reply by GRU on August 19, 2012 at 3:40 I'm still digging the new look though... Which is something I haven't said since their Midian days.
Permalink Reply by ADreamOfWolves on August 19, 2012 at 3:44 I understand why Caroline isn't in the pictures, since she is the live keyboardist, and why Danny isn't in the pictures, since he might have joined the band after the promo photos, but why is James never in the promo shoots? Is he just the live guitarist now? I never hear anything about him writing the songs either. Only ever hear how Paul writes everything now.
And who is playing the bass on the new album? Dave or Danny? Did Martin handle all the keyboards/synths or just some of them? I wonder if Caroline is talented enough to write music for Cradle and actually be in the studio with them or just will always be the live keyboardist.

Ahahaha, and I used to laugh at Dimmu's photos... :D It's not bad, but for me it's a total Dimmu rip-off.
Permalink Reply by HELLHOUND on August 19, 2012 at 3:55 Well, Martin did all keys, like Scott said two days ago or so. Remember, Caroline is a bass player... not a keyboardist! I do fucking love her, though.

I'd say he has been left out of the loop big time! Strange he isn't ... maybe their costumes were too costly? He definitely added to DDVA promos ...

Not sure but Daniel may well have played bass, Dave had been doing his own stuff plus DJ work and the Prong gigs around the time of recording.
Anyway, from Facebook yesterday - "Cradle Of Filth all mixed, hard graft but everyone in the band, at label and management all happy :)" Scott Aitkins

Permalink Reply by Cassandra on August 19, 2012 at 5:27 Well, that's not very good. How could someone keep James out of the loop? It is strange, indeed. He should have been part of the promo pics.
Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't someone mess around with James's recordings for DDVA?
Oh, dear I hope he doesn't leave :[
