While technically not bad musicians they have become the super stars of the black metal scene. Headed by frontman Dani Filth, a bombastic idiot who is an ultra poser on all accounts. Listened too mostly by the sheep that shop religiously at hot topic they have created a sound which is commercial black metal and deviated completely from the true black metal culture. A culture based on murder and arsen.
Get the Cradle of Filth mug.
A band with a name to match their talent.
Guy #1: Did you hear that new cradle of filth song? It's siiiick.

Guy #2: If you're in to metal that sounds like a fricken dog on meth, then I guess you're right on this one buddy. I'm gonna listen to some iced earth.

A shitty screamo "black metal" band that so many faggots like. As it has been said before, I shall say it again. If you like "cradle" you probably like the other gay shit like slipknot and mudvayne.

I am ashamed to even listen to the same genre of music because this shit is a disgrace to metal. If you want some real black metal, go listen to Dimmu Borgir you little fucknuts.
Scene Kid (Faggot): Ohh my gawsh, I'm super psyched I get to go see Cradle of Filth!!

Real Metal Fan: Fuck you! *Boots him in the chest and kicks him in the face* Fucking pussy!

Get the Cradle of Filth mug.
Sheets of sacrificial toilet paper placed across the water in a public toilet to stop the water splashing up onto your ass
The toilets in the club were disgusting so had to lay a cradle of filth before I did a shit
