During a recent interview with Look Mag, Cradle Of Filth frontman Dani Filth discussed the band’s upcoming album. According to him, the effort is the group’s “next stage of [their] evolutionary step.”

Filth said the following about the wait time between albums:

“[We’ve done] loads of tours. We were in the studio beginning the drums last May. But then we went and did all summer festivals. Then we had holidays — one holiday a year, which we allow us to rejuvenate. Then I was recording with my friend in America. Then we went to South America and Mexico. Then we went, did a co-headline tour with DEVILDRIVER. Then we went back to the studio. Then our producer had a baby. Then it was Christmas, and we did more in the studio. Then we went on tour in Europe. Yeah, that’s what happened. We’ve just been very, very busy. It was finished — it’s been ready since July, I think. We’re having two more videos and singles before the album drops. Yeah, maybe even four; I’m not sure. It depends how well it goes. But yeah, there’s a plan to a gameplan to everything.”

He also added the following about the musical direction:

“It’s very hard to talk about it. I don’t really wanna talk about it because I can’t do it justice. Every album has a lot of things going on. It’s just a very, very great record. It’s the next stage of our evolutionary step as CRADLE OF FILTH, moving on from the [two new songs] we debuted on [the 2023 live album] ‘Trouble And Their Double Lives’. It has elements of old-school CRADLE, elements of new-school CRADLE. It’s catchy, it’s fast, it’s slow, it’s romantic, it’s heavy, it’s theatrical.”
