Cradle of Filth

Existence Is Futile

Necromantic Fantasies

---

This is the first song I have ever heard by Cradle Of Filth. You heard me correctly...

Vocals

What the hell? Such choppy enunciation, and kinda reminds me of a cartoon character. There is some kind of high-pitched scream that I don't mind because it is different.

Music

I think the guitar and the keyboard stick out in this. I am trying to imagine some different vocals with this music because the music is pretty good, I think.

Lyrics

I really don't like romantic words and ideas. This just seems incredibly lame. It doesn't capture me in any way. Sounds like people who have never heard a wolf howl in their life.

When the moon is full
And the wolves howl in the forest
Would you take my hand
And lead us both on our dark adventure?
Would we share our dreams
Those necromantic fantasies?
So could we ever be
Apart, when our hearts align like thunder?
