Cradle of Filth’s Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa is a blistering return to form—an intense fusion of gothic metal grandeur and punk ferocity, hailed by Metal Hammer as their best in years. Recorded in Suffolk and mixed by Scott Atkins, the album showcases the band’s enduring, evolving sound. Described by frontman Dani Filth as “our tenth commandment in metal,” it’s a modern yet unmistakably Cradle creation. Uncompromising and ever provocative, the Grammy-nominated band remains one of the most successful and influential forces in British metal.
