Cradle Of Filth album details

UK extreme metal outfit Cradle of Filth have announced details of their upcoming 10th studio album, The Manticore & Other Horrors.

Though a local release date is yet to be confirmed, the album is out October 30 in North America.

COF frontman Dani Filth has described the record as their "10th commandment in metal".

"We have diversified and kept alive the spirit of this band and breathed it into something that I can proudly say, slays like an absolute motherf**ker. The Manticore is coming… Long live the filth!”

We can't say we've heard the album yet, but according to the band it "possesses an altogether new atmosphere for the band, incorporating a heavier, faster NWOBBM punk vibe that is both current and cruel, blended with ornate orchestration and the quirky immediateness of 2000's Midian opus".

The Manticore & Other Horrors was recorded in eight weeks at Springvale and Grindstone studios, Suffolk, and was mixed by Scott Atkins.
