Last week, Cradle of Filth warned us that surprises were on the way after announcing parting ways with their guitarist and keyboardist. Today (9th), these UK extreme metal legends have announced their next chapter by signing with Napalm Records. 

 

Cradle of Filth mastermind Dani Filth comments:

“It is with great expectation and excitement that we announce our move to Napalm Records, having seen and heard a great deal of complimentary things about the label, which in turn leads us to believe that this will be the perfect nesting ground for Cradle Of Filth in 2022 and beyond. We’d like to thank all our fans for their continued support and trust in us doing the right thing for the band and its music. All hail the eternal ‘Filth!”

 

Thomas Caser, CEO, Napalm Records adds:

“We are thrilled to welcome the most influential and iconic extreme metal band to our ever-growing Napalm Records family. Being a fan of the band since their very first album, it is with great honor and excitement that we’re able to work with them from now on! We are ready to conquer the metal world with Cradle Of Filth!”
