    Midian is the city hidden to protect the all so "fearsome" monsters. This song is derived from the 1990 movie 'Nightbreed'.

    My first Cradle song was "From The Cradle To Enslaved". I made a tape recording from a radio station that played heavy music one time per week. I immediately went and got Bittersuites.
    I have bought every album multiple times.
    I traveled hundreds of miles to see them live in Anaheim. I really enjoy your insight and interpretation of one of my favorite bands. Seriously, great work! Thank you.

    my highschool bf introduce COF to me and the first song was Her Ghost in the Fog. after that I fell in LOVE with the band. I was really into writing and poetry at the time and the Lyrics with Piano? that was the first time i ever heard a band use a piano and "strings" in their music. I was just like "why haven't i ever found this music before!?!"

    • @dr.metalhead5452
      @dr.metalhead5452  6 місяців тому +1

      That's lovely! Their lyrics and sound are very inspiring for someone writing poetry, especially at that age when you're still discovering and experimenting with your own lyrical voice.
      I was writing poetry in high school too, influenced by CoF and Romantic literature, and though I gradually realized prose was more my thing, I still "used" them as inspiration for their themes and wording (and sound, of course).

    Midian was my first approach to CoF so for me is a very important album.

    I rember at the age of 15 when ''Dusk an her embrace'' came out..i bought the cd which was in a small coffin case...then i put it on,not knowing anything about them..and my mind was blown away by the musicianship..i followed them since then and never regret it

    • @dr.metalhead5452
      @dr.metalhead5452  6 місяців тому

      A small coffin case, that's so awesome! Did you buy it because you thought the cd looked cool or had someone recommended the band to you? That's a great memory :)

    • @peridjolevlam4299
      @peridjolevlam4299 6 місяців тому

      Well a classmate recommended the band,and at the time in 1996 they only had released 2 albuns,"dusk" and "the principle",so when i had to choose one,the decision was obvious😀

    • @Pilomaf
      @Pilomaf 4 місяці тому

      I did the exact same. Bought the coffin. I heard a few tracks, then just bought it. Only other stuff I listened to back then was Samael, Emperor, Enslaved and Dimmu Borgir.
      I still have the cd and the coffin 30 years later.. I just wish I had treated it better when I was young.

    1:11 my first contact with Cradle Of Filth was with the first album, with _ Forest Whispers My Name_ . Since then, it was a non-stop listening until 2008. _Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder_ was the last album that, for me, made sense.

    • @dr.metalhead5452
      @dr.metalhead5452  6 місяців тому

      So you began with the beginning, that's nice! I can relate to that... After Godspeed, while I do like some of the newer songs, I haven't listened to the albums as faithfully as I did the old ones.

    That one "dark song" is lord abortion I'm sure and the other is either death magick for adepts or saffrons curse i think?? Am i close Dr?? Lord abortion, im sure but uve got me stumped on the second🤔. If i HAD to choose, it would be Death Magick. Those are my final guesses🫣🧐. Great analysis as always!!!

    Fastest click in a long while when I saw this video was up. This deserves a much bigger audience, though I suppose extreme metal lyric analysis is a fairly niche subject. Nevertheless, I hope you continue to do them, I look forward to many more! Your level of insight is simply not found elsewhere. Thank you.
    The first Cradle song(s) I heard was a play-through of the Principle of Evil Made Flesh album, which I didn't like much at the time. Later on, I heard Malice Through the Looking Glass which got me hooked, and I started going through the back catalogue and continue to follow the band.
    I''m guessing the upcoming Midian songs are Lord Abortion and Death Magick for Adepts.

    My introduction to Cradle Of Filth was, when i was around 12 or 13 i was at a local record store. And i seen the album "Cruelty And The Beast " and i remember just staring at the cover thinking " This shits gotta be good". Bought it and i was not disappointed.

    Great analysis! I love how the camera is zoomed out and we can see more of your outfit and expressions. It makes the experience more immersive, like you’re talking to us in person!
    Great summary of what Satanism is and how it came to be! Lol yes the album cover does look somewhat cringe. Very 90s and early 2000s in terms of aesthetic!
    I love the imagery used here. The sunset, Eve serving Satan in that particular way!

    One thing I like about the album cover is that they still used real models for it. Instead of using CGI or cheap artwork, like in Godspeed, I wish they'd still have real people on the covers, like the first few albums

    i dont know what song was my first they were recommended by several friends so i bought the EP from the cradle to enslave. lucky to see them at ozzfest for a few reasons 1) before or just about when nymphetamine came out and they turned to shit 2) saved all my lunch money from normal school year plus summer school was still $100 short. 3) still had to go to summer school that day got there right when they started 4) my buddys dad who drove us wanted to tailgate all day until ozzy went on 5) marilyn manson was banned from playing the "family friendly" venue, but black metal bands like C.O.F. and dimmu borgir played lol thank you dipshit organizers
