one of the best bands ever.

[shadowsworn]

But if you want a song that is all blood-curdling screams... have you ever heard this song before?



don't just dismiss it out of hand because it has the CoF name on it either. Old CoF were awesome, no matter what you may think of some of their newer albums (for one thing, I don't think Dani is even capable of screaming quite like this anymore)

Also, check out the Queen of Winter Throned (mind you listen to the full song, 10:27), which I couldn't post on here because the album cover features illustrated nudity

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake
And the mists steal in with ease
Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes
In adoration of the moon and thee

"They call as I to thee...."

And I will come, as if in dream
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen
Of vengeful, ancient breed
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies
Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I can taste thy scent by candlelight
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps

Nocternity....
She shall come for me

A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night
And I have ridden from the westerning light
To expend my lust
Tear away the funereal dress
Know that I will escape from my death
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress

Lo! The pale moonlight
Weaves a poetic spell of vital death and decline
Of mist and moth and the hunger inside
Kisses took to fever and the fever, demise

"Through twilight, darkness and moonrise
My scarlet tears will run
As stolen blood and whispered love
Of fantasies undone"

Countess swathed in ebony
And snow-white balletic grace
Rouge-filmed lips procure the wish
For lust and her disgrace

Dusk and her embrace

We shall flit through the shadows
Like a dream of (were)wolves in the snow
Under deadly nightshade
Still warmed with the kill's afterglow

Beneath the stars thy flesh bedevils me
(Beneath the stars taste the death in me)
Bequeath to me thy fiery kiss
To sever thin mortality

Elizabeth
My heart is thine
Thy fragrant words Warm within like wine....

"Let me come to thee
With eyes like Asphodel
Moon-glancing, loose desires free
To writhe under my spell"

Ereshkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I know thy scent by candlelight
Immortal flesh I yearn to share
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed malefic red as sobriety weeps
Nocternity
She shall come for me....

Unfurl thy limbs breathless succubus
How the full embosomed fog
Imparts the night to us....

Yea i've heard of CoF. I don't really like them.

Here just trust me.
LISTEN TO THIS BAND.
One of my TOP 10 Bands.
One of the best that fits my type of music.
and tell me if you know anything like this.

[Norrin Radd]

The worst song off that album is Haunted Shores, in my opinion.

Ironically, Dani's dreadful vocals on that song remind me of the kind of bands he likes.

[Kadaj]

Watch the video i just posted.

at 3:45 is the epic guitar riff

4:08 is the pig squeals and screams that i FREAKING LOVE.


4:26 is the start of the break down. ( ohhh i love breakdowns)

[shadowsworn]

that was actually much better than I expected it to be. I don't often listen to that kind of music , though, so I can't help you. Also, I heard no harsh screaming at all in this song. I thought you said you only liked music with screaming?

It sounds like you didn't listen to that CoF song I posted, though. It sounds pretty much like nothing you'll have heard by them before (ie. their new stuff), so you can't judge it based on that. Listen to it :]

[Kadaj]

the despised icon is Inhale screams.


i have listened to CoF before.
Nemphetamine is an okay song.

but i don't really like the keyboard and stuff in that song. its just creepy as hell.




this band has a cool keyboard/synth though.

Parental Advisory Strongly Cautioned.

[shadowsworn]

Like, I said, songs like Nymphetamine (especially the full Overdose version, with the pointless long intro and outro) sound NOTHING like what I posted. I'm not exaggerating. Nymphetamine is new CoF, Dusk and Her Embrace is old CoF.

and about the creepiness, you should know that CoF don't take themselves seriously at all. Listening to their music is the aural equivalent of watching a massively cheesey (but awesome) horror movie, and they know it.

Oh, and I think Dani Filth does exhale screaming. Probably one of the reasons his voice is in the shape it is now.

Here, maybe you'll prefer this, though.



Opeth - Master's Apprentices

oh yeah, I was here at this performance (click watch in high quality btw):
