May the demons of old rejoice, for Cradle of Filth are back on stage. Oddly enough, the memory that emerges immediately when I think of Cradle of Filth is not about the very first time I listened to them or some album cover I might have stumbled across at the record store, but rather an interview Dani gave to the now-defunct French Hard Rock Magazine. A then skinny, funny-looking Dani Filth appeared in his home kitchen doing the dishes like just another day at the office. Something that surprised me at the time, as it contrasted with the usual bad boy trademark image associated with black metal.
