Cradle Of Filth - Bathory Aria (Remixed and Remastered) [Audio]

This takes me back to when I was a confused and lonely kid. Didnt fit in anywhere, no one to share with, hostile home environment. Life sucked but my goodness it felt good listening to Cradle of Filth.

I'm 39 now, married with 3 kids. Now my twenty-year marriage is falling apart, and divorce is so close. I've just immigrated to another country, I can't work according to my qualifications now, there're no relatives or friends who can give me any support, and many other troubles are in my life. So I fill confused and disappointed like I was being a rebellious teenager with a plenty of problems. And now like then this music helps me to coop with all difficulties, fill me with energy and a desire to live on.

Just think about this for a minute and let it sink in - this is a single song from a MASSIVE catalogue. Each song is like a chapter from a Victorian horror novel written in olde tongue. Now imagine what it takes not only to compose music and lyrics of this calibre, to fit together in the first place, but also to memorise them to be able to perform an entire concert. Every night these guys play they're basically performing a 2-3 hour shakespearean opus... and Dani has all this stored in his mind... Can you comprehend just how insanely talented that is?

𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗟𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗨𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿. 0:00 Snuffed tapers sighed As Death left impressing His crest of cold tears on the Countess Benighted like ill-fated Usher The House of Bathory shrouded 'Neath grief's dark facade If only I could have wept In mourning by Her side I would have clasped Her so tight Like storm-beached Aphrodite Drowned on Kytherean tides And Kissed Her For from Her alone My lips would have known Enigmas of shadowy vistas Where pleasures took flesh And pain, remorseless Came freezing the breath Of raucous life hushed unto whispers Benighted Inhaling the pale waning moonlight that crept Through the crypt of Her Lord who so lucidly slept Benighted Exhaling the wail of black widowhood's toll Waxing eternal night entered Her soul. 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗜𝗜. 𝗔 𝗠𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗥𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗙𝘂𝗴𝘂𝗲 2:00 Now haranguing grey skies With revenge upon life Gnathic and Sapphic Needs begged gendercide Delusions of Grandier denounced the revolt Of descrying cursed glass, disenchanted in vaults Encircled by glyphs midst Her sin-sistered cult With hangman's abandon She plied spiritworlds To Archangels in bondage From light to night hurled Cast down to the earth where torment would unfurl....... But soon Her tarot proved Hybrid rumours spread like tumours Would accrue And blight Her stars However scarred To better bitter truths Of cold bloodbaths As bodies rose In rigid droves To haunt Her from their Shallow burials imposed When wolves exhumed Their carthen wombs Where heavy frosts had laboured long To bare their wounds To the depths of Her soul they pursued Wielding their poison they flew Like a murder of ravens in fugue And knowing their raptures Would shatter Her dreams She clawed blackened books for damnation's reprieve Baneful cawed canons on amassed enemies So Hallow's Eve As She received Like Bellona to the ball Those enemies Fell-sisters heaved Her torturies Cross stained flagstones To Her carriage reined to flee But She knew She must brave the night through Though fear crept a deathshead o'er the moon Like a murder of ravens in Fugue For each masked, jewelled gaze held dread purpose Horror froze painted eyes to cold stares And even Her dance In the vast mirrors cast Looked the ill of Her future If fate feasted there....

She demanded the Heavens and forever to glean The elixir of Youth from the pure Whilst Her lesbian fantasies Reamed to extremes O'er decades unleashed Came for blood's silken cure But Her reign ended swiftly For Dark Gods dreamt too deep To heed Her pleas When Her gaolers were assailed With condemnations from a priest Who'd stammered rites In the dead of night For maidens staining winding sheets And She postured proud When Her crimes were trowelled And jezebelled to peasant lips Though She smelt the fires That licked limbs higher To the tortured cunts of accomplices So ends this twisted fable's worth And though spared the pyre's bite By dint of nobled bloodlined birth Her sins (crimes) garnered Her no respite Forever severed from the thrill of coming night Where slow Death alone could grant Her flight "The Spirits have all but fled judgement I rot, alone, insane Where the forest whispers puce laments for me From amidst the pine and wreathed wolfsbane Beyond these walls, wherein condemned To the gloom of an austere tomb I pace with feral madness sent Through the pale beams of a guiltless moon Who, bereft of necrologies, thus Commands creation over the earth Whilst I resign my lips to death A slow cold kiss that chides rebirth Though one last wish is bequathed by fate My beauty shalt wilt, unseen Save for twin black eyes that shalt come to take My soul to peace or Hell for company" (To peace or hell for company) My soul to Hell for company.

[@robowarriorx]

My personal favorite from the boys, I didn't think it could get any better...the shear poetry in the lyrics of this one..man, as a kid, this song showed me that metal can be so, so much more. Everyone likes to say, "well, such and such band is thinking-man's metal", but never was this idea more personified in the Cruelty and the Beast album. For my money, this was Cradle at their best..Midian is great yes, and Dusk and Her Embrace is gritty and black as fuck, but I feel Cruelty has two feet firmly planted between the black and the ethereal symphonic poetry, it has moments where it just crushes, and other moments of almost sylvan feverdreams, banshee wails mixed with whispers from the grave, tortured screams of the Damned and the hot wanton lust of Jezebel. Man they don't make 'em like this one anymore!

This remix is simply amazing, no longer do we have the thin production and the shitty drum sound, or a bloated 'sound war' production, oh no, this has been remastered to perfection. An example of a masterpiece sounding better than I thought possible.

[@blastwave_]

The original drums are full of shit. And it was clear back in 1998. Finally, this cool album can be heard with good sound!

[@stephenbleach4668]

@@blastwave_ I listened to the album again, and for me The Bathory Aria for example- holy fuck man, it sounds amazing. I've always loved this album, but for me, I was soooo disappointed by the shitty sound I must confess I never played it as much as other Cradle releases, which is a damned shame considering the sheer number of fantastic songs on it. All that shits changed now! I'm gonna play the cunt to death now.

[@behindthen0thing]

@@stephenbleach4668 the drums were sounding horrible. I'm glad they've finally fixed this. mourn for those who never got to hear it

[@1いかり]

The drums sound way better now and the treble between the guitar and vocals feels more distinguishable. The bass is less upfront and instead melds with the guitar in this version (not a good or bad thing, just preference.) Overall this is a great remaster but I’ve noticed some changes. Listen to the original version at 1:30 and there’s this cool sample of thunder that really makes the transition more impactful in my opinion. Also on the following vocals when Danny is saying “Benighted,” the accompanying female vocals are way more apparent in the original. Just a bunch of tiny changes, but yeah as a whole this remaster is fucking great.

[@behindthen0thing]

@@1いかり it's possible they might have used some alternate takes as well

[@brittanylanham9358]

Really, is there any group that compares to Cradle of Filth? Absolutely beautiful.

bought it in cd when came out.and now remastered!!! masterpiece

[@MaskedRiderChris]

The drums actually sound like...DRUMS. Dear gawd, what an improvement! I hated the production on the original version, much as I love the album itself, and it finally has received a production that gives it justice for the first time. Definitely must score this one ASAP!

[@behindthen0thing]

AGREE 1000000%

[@ConspiracyCraftersStudio]

This takes me back to days, when as a young, deeply depressed, stressed, tramatic kid, i would listen to this and midian album on my headphones, while going to sleep. As scary as it sounds, it was taking me to some different world that felt better. I know i sound like that dude from the IT crowd now, but thats how it was ;)

[@danideathspell7870]

WOW!...YOU...GUYS... ARE...AMAZING!!!...I swear I've never heard such an amazing remake...LONG LIVE CRADLE!!!

[@midianpoet]

ONE AND ONLY SONG ! THE GREATEST PART OF GREAT ALBUM ! This haunting me for years,I've been to Čachtice castle many times, I've been to those places that Dani sings about, we have a relative from Čachtice in our family, love of my life is girl..... is real Elizabeth! Thanks Dani, You changed my life! Im Your fan for log years, seeing COF maybe tenth times alive. Every concert is THE CONCERT! And yes, the last time you played in Ostrava in the Czech Republic, we accidentally got to the rehearsal before the concert, you were in civilian clothes, we were there for a really long time and it was even better than the concert then and it was amazing and that's something to say! Greetings from the Czech republic !

[@BathoryMcClemont]

been a cradle fan for a long time, this was one album I hadn't yet had a full listen, now that it's remastered it couldn't be a better time
