On November 9, 2010 Cradle of Filth will have their latest album issued in North America by Nuclear Blast. The band signed with Peaceville Records earlier this year and the release will be a collaborative effort.

Frederick Jude, Managing Director of Peaceville Records, comments on this upcoming cooperative effort: "Football aside, we’re pleased to be teaming up with Nuclear Blast on this very important release. Given their resources, interest in the band, and track record in the U.S., we believe CRADLE OF FILTH will be best positioned to better the sales of their last album in North America."

This month, vocalist Dani Filth, guitarists Paul Allender and James McIlroy, bassist David Pybus, drummer Martin Skaroupka and keyboard player Ashley Ellyllon enter Monkey Puzzle Studios near Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk, England to begin work on the follow-up to 2008’s "Godspeed On The Devil's Thunder." CRADLE OF FILTH will compose another concept album, this time based on Adam's first wife, the lascivious demoness Lilith. "Throwing medieval nuns, Knights Templars, Greek mythology, lashings of sex, occult lore, and violent bloodshed together into a creative milieu, the band are poised to create a darkly erotic nightmare set to their unique scope of supreme vampyric metal," states the press release in regard to the new album.

Cynic: You and I both know that this can sometimes be a bad thing. Does anybody know if they've had a change in management at NB?

Yeah, healthy labels are a good sign for metal but noone saw the SPV thing coming.

I'm not sure - I think they might be jumping on bigger bands they know sell but are having issues with their previous labels because they're not as big (especially Roadrunner who is always out with the old, in with the new).

I wouldn't be surprised if Motorhead signs to Nuclear Blast soon since they were on SPV too. Nuclear Blast is a great label though and they do at least seem to respect their artists.
