Full review
I have been a Cradle Of Filth enthusiast since its inception, I have witnessed them progress from the raw and somewhat macabre beginnings of 'The Principle of Evil Made Flesh" right up till their latest offering. This album is quite distant from what we are used to, although Black Metal fans are usually steadfast in what Black Metal is and what it should be, they will not be disappointed. Thornography has a tendency to sound less refined as their previous albums, it lacks finesse. However tracks such as "Rise Of The Pentagram" show what this album is truly about, hard hitting and frontal attacks with the beautiful and tender sounds of traditional classical instruments, although this track has a minimal amount of lyrics it still proves the bands brilliance. To conclude I enjoyed this album but not as much as I did the previous ones. Still a solid Black Metal album though.
