Simply in time for Halloween, Cradle of Filth have returned with a brand new standalone single and video, “Malignant Perfection,” which may be streamed beneath.
Frontman Dani Filth referred to as the monitor the band’s “horrific homage to All Hallows Eve.” Refined, bouncing keyboard strains are essentially the most distinguished sound within the combine except for Dani’s raspy harsh vocals, making a regal and festive environment — as if he’s addressing a gathering of visitors at some haunted banquet. Guitars are employed selectively, including the occasional instrumental flourish and carrying the buildup in the course of the track’s dramatic bridge part.
“It’s a good musical accompaniment to the spirit of the witching season; invoking darkish, Autumnal splendour and celebrating the time when the skinny line between life and dying is at its most tenuous and the denizens of the otherworld search to interrupt the veil into ours,” elaborated Dani within the press launch for the track.
Relating to the video, that includes a very-Halloween forged of ghoulish entities — Dani added, “The video, directed by the imitable Vicente Cordero and that includes the inventive masterstroke of 1 Missy Munster, is a playground of seductive darkness rife with malicious monsters and cryptid creations, all vying voraciously for the viewer’s everlasting soul.”
