CRADLE OF FILTH
(UK)
AUSTRALIAN INVASION 2024

It’s been many years since CRADLE OF FILTH last darkened our horizon and we can now hail their return this September to commemorate the release of their "Best Of" Live album, Trouble & Their Double.

Belched from the fiery depths into the rustic charms of the Witch County, Suffolk, UK, CRADLE OF FILTH are undisputed giants of the heavy metal realm. Imperious purveyors of a perennially unique strain of dark, dastardly and wilfully extreme metal, with deep roots in the worlds of gothic horror and occult curiosity. Led by the inimitable Dani Filth, the band has weathered decades of tumult and trial, earning a formidable reputation as both a singular creative force and one of the most riotously entertaining live bands the metal world has ever produced. 

Thus far into their distinguished and highly influential career CRADLE OF FILTH continue to show their ferocious efficacy with no signs of slowing down as they maintain their unparalleled fusion of gothic grandeur and blackened metal. Filth’s influence is felt far and wide as Dani recently teamed up for a collaborative song with pop megastar Ed Sheeran, which is set to appear on their upcoming album. 

No doubt CRADLE OF FILTH will ignite the flames of anticipation with their impending arrival as they descend on our land for a trip through the darkness as we embrace the chaos and bear witness to their infernal live presence. 

And this time they will not be coming alone, rapidly rising Moldovans, INFECTED RAIN. will be chaperoned by the innovators of extreme for their debut tour of Australia.

INFECTED RAIN are led by the enigmatic, charismatic and multi-talented Lena Scissorhands, who has cemented her place as one of the greatest frontwomen in Metal. INFECTED RAIN accent the introspective musical journey as they wind between effectively-placed progressive, electronic and even nu-metal features amid ethereal passages, bolstered by subterranean heaviness and rhythmic grooves topped by Scissorhands' hair-raising screams and haunting vocals.
