Cradle Of Filth - Nymphetamine Fix [OFFICIAL VIDEO]







First I'm just gonna say this... If you like this song, that's awesome. It's amazing. But this is NOT a representation of CoF in any way. This band was one of the pioneering acts that made black metal a force to be reckoned with. From the early 90's through the release of Nymphetamine, Dani Filth and company wrote some of the hardest, yet poetic and thought provoking music I've heard.



Then the corporate monolith that is the American recording industry saw fit to market them to teenagers who don't appreciate shit, and unfortunately, it was this song that they did it with. I know, metalheads, this isn't "real" metal, is it? Ah, will nothing please you? No, it won't. Wear your 20 year old t-shirts, grow your greasy hair as long as you can, live in daddy's basement until you die and debate what "real" metal is with DarkLord666 until your fingers bleed... In short, FUCK YOU!



This is symphonic gothic metal. It is a departure from the style they helped shape, but that doesn't mean it's not good. What really isn't good is everything after Nymphetamine. I haven't enjoyed any of it! I started watching the video for Lilith Immaculate and Dani cut his hair and looked like he'd just come from auditioning for Insane Clown Posse! What the fuck... Oh, the song sucked, too.



Anyway, hope you like it. Female vocalist/blonde in the video is Liv Kristine (Leaves' Eyes/Theater of Tragedy) This video has such amazing aesthetics... :3
