Exciting News! Cradle of Filth Are Touring!

Only weeks after lamenting that I will probably never see Cradle of Filth play live (I bought their live album a few months ago), it has been announced that they will be playing Australia! Not just Australia, but Brisbane, too!
I'm most excited!
I immediately went out and bought their latest offering (which I also didn't know about) in anticipation. JB have the 2x disc edition for $26.99
They play the Arena on the 31st May 2009.

I can't wait! What a great year for music!
In January I'll be seeing Underworld, Nick Cave & The Badseeds, and Pnau (among others), and who knows who else will make an appearance this year! Woohoo!

Listening to: Cradle of Filth - Godspeed on the Devil's Thunder (album - and it's rockin)

Best Outro Ever?

Holy shit.
Seriously, the final song on Cradle of Filth's Nymphetamine, is one of the best outros to an album, ever.
Unfortunately, they ruin the outro by putting the radio edit of the song Nymphetamine after the song, but I like having the radio edit, so I'm not that upset by it.
Still, it's a FUCKING awesome outro.
The song is called Mother of Abominations and it is worth sitting through the 6 minutes to get the outro (but of course, the outro sounds so much better within the context of the album).
Go check it out.

Listening to: Basement Jaxx - Yo-Yo (Wha? After a post like that? Well, it's on random, and it took me a while to write the post, didn't it...)
