Cradle of Filth Announce ‘By Order Of The Dragon’ UK/EU Headline Tour

Long-dead poet John Keats may have described autumn as a “season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,” but for extreme metal legends Cradle of Filth – led by iconic frontman Dani Filth – it’s a season of mischief and mayhem.

Nothing kicks off the spooky season like a hellacious Cradle of Filth live extravaganza, and the band has just unveiled eleven such auspicious UK & Ireland occasions, including a spine-chilling evening at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town on Hallowe’en itself. Joining the purveyors of pandemonium for UK & Irish shenanigans will be Butcher Babies and High Parasite. Butcher Babies will be joined by Mental Cruelty across mainland Europe.

Twelve months ago, the group unleashed a thirst-quencher of epic proportions in the form of their first live album to be released in over 20 years, Trouble And Their Double Lives, via Napalm Records. The record features a slew of fan favourites encompassing the band’s electrifying discography – such as “Nymphetamine (Fix),” “Bathory Aria,” and “Blackest Magick In Practice” – but also two bonus tracks and two entirely brand new songs, “She Is A Fire” and “Demon Prince Regent.” Trouble And Their Double Lives is a time capsule of blisteringly intense live energy, and an astounding testament to Cradle of Filth’s renowned latest era.
