As previously reported, five former members of Cradle Of Filth filed a lawsuit against the band, frontman Dani Filth, and their management late last year after accusing them of copyright infringement, unjust enrichment, etc. However, Filth has since claimed that they have “done absolutely zero wrong.”
Filth told Hot Metal the following when asked how the band responded to the allegations:
“We just ignored it. We actually, as people, as a band, as me, had done absolutely zero wrong. It was blown out of proportion …
We’ve done an American tour, we’ve done summer festivals, we’re firing on all cylinders. Cradle are back. It never went away.
It’s a shame, really, that this sort of thing happens. But life throws curveballs all the time.
People say, ‘Yeah, you’ve got a new lineup.’ Well, do you want a fucking show or not? Bands evolve. Nobody really complains in the workplace if somebody leaves the office or the record label they’re working for or the radio show or magazine. It’s just a case of mutate and survive. We evolve. We evolve and move on.”
