The ever-controversial Cradle of Filth return with yet another symphony for the devil with THORNOGRAPHY. Providing the elaborate orchestration, speed metal antics, and dramatic flare like no other, this CD once again cascades over the top of metal's normal excess, making songs like "Under Huntress Moon" and "Libertian Grim" surefire diehard fan pleasers. But as always, Dani Filth and company always have something up their sleeve, and their movie soundtrack cover of Heaven 17's "Temptation" is just one of the many treats you'll get on this 12-track offering. Staying true with all usual tactics in tow on cuts like the Maiden gone black metal vibe of "The Rise of the Pentagram" and the breakneck rhythms and demonic vocals on "Lovesick for Mina", Cradle of Filth triumphantly retains its corpsepainted stripes while showing no fear or repercussion in their experimental dabblings such as working with HIM vocalist Vile Valo on "The Byronic Man". THORNOGRAPHY does the job in turning extreme metal on its ear with the unmistakable Cradle of Filth artistry beaming bright.

A very good album to say the least the lyrics are incredibly good and the music makes this album very good. Quite diffrent from the likes of Nymphetamine and Midian but as long as its Dani you will have a great album everytime... 4 out of 5

well first of all all u cradle of filth fans will notice their sound is sooooo much lyter then their previous albums buttttt i gotta say their new so called "mainstream sound" isnt as bad as most pll tought the songs r rly catchy and some of the songs have some great melodic guitars in them and great drummin but if ur expecting and hoping the new album will be anythin like midian or love craft and wichtarts u pll r dead wrong ...over all its an okay album myself i prefered nymphetamine over thornography

Nirvana's Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic planned on recording an all-acoustic blues album with Screaming Trees singer Mark Lanegan in the late '80s, but the project never reached fruition.
