They actually did a really good cover of Maiden's Hallowed Be Thy Name. I'm not usually one for covers but it's pretty cool. C.O.F. is alright but i for "black" metal (there is dispute as to whether or not C.O.F. is truly that) I recommend bands like Immortal, Emperor, Bathory, Darkthrone, Dawn, Leviathan, Xasthur, Lord Belial, Dissection, Dark funeral, etc.

Not alot, but I'll listen to any kind of music especially rock. Most of the rock I listen to is like Avenged Sevenfold, Motley Crue, Guns N Roses, Velvet Revolver, Slayer, Iron Maiden, Korn, Metellica, System Of A Down, and other classic rock.

SLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well the C.O.F. isn't going to make much sense at first since you don't seem to listen to any death, black, or grind metal. Maybe ease yourself into them with their cover of Maiden's "Hallowed be thy name." It's actually pretty fashionable for purists to hate Cradle. I'm somewhat of a purist (for example I hate Nu metal) but i'm open to a lot of liberties being taken with the genres.

I'm not a big COF fan, but I got their cds and I like them every now and then.

Cradle of Filth definitely takes some getting used to. And no they aren't true black metal. They're part of the Melodic Black Metal movement, bands of the genre who are a bit more accessible and therefore are chastised by the purists because they are seen as only being in it for the money… aka, the sellout label that every successful group gets tagged with by so called fans of the genre. It’s more to do with the whole anti-mainstream trend than an actual dislike for the music/groups.

Anyway, “Hallowed Be Thy Name� is a great place to start along with “No Time To Cry� which is a Sisters of Mercy cover. They actually have quite a few cover tunes, including Death Comes Ripping from the Misfits and Mr. Crowley from Ozzy. Any of these songs are a good place to begin the process of accepting Dani’s vocals lol. I first hear of them in 1999, I used to be part of the group who owned a couple CoF albums but couldn’t really listen to them for any length of time, it just seemed like too much jumbled together and the vocals were ridiculous. But now I’m CoF to the bone, and it’s basically all I’ve listened to for the last two years.

If you’re interested in getting more in depth with their stuff, I’d start you out with Nymphetamine because it’s the most accessible (radio friendly) album and also has the best production to date. Their early stuff has terrible production and most people cannot stomach those albums right away. But once you get a handle on Nymphetamine, check out “Cruelty and The Beast�, “Dusk and Her Embrace� and “Midian� then if you’re still digging the group, you should enjoy the rest of their albums.
