Cradle of Filth- Absinthe With Faust

[WargasmJewce]

somebody told me this a7x rip them off with this song on second heartbeat dont see it...

[RetroRifleGuitarist2]

@WargasmJewce just the piano riff at the begining. its almost the same as the beginning riff in second heartbeat but the songs are completely different.

[everybodydies9193]

One of my favorite Cradle of Filth songs, along with Bathory aria and A Gothic Romance.

[gabo0569]

excelent kanzion waaaaaaa  |m|

[Deadlycovers]

Old cradle of filth was amazing!

Sorry but i cant listen to them anymore! This is one of the worst black metal album ive heard! if you can even call them black metal.

[commandofull]

the piano is fuckin best

[SRsyndrome]

That high scream just shits all over everything I thought I knew about metal vocals. Awesome.

[TheDarkAngelDani]

I hate this band, REALLY hate it, But my god, nymph is an excellent album!

[filth69ify1]

@TheDarkAngelDani and they hate you too my friend, thanks for sharing the love :)

[TheDarkAngelDani]

@filth69ify1 lol Well it's not the band really, the bands amazing.. it's Dani...

[NeverGiveIn715]

I swear when I get my own car I'm going to be blasting this song!!!!!

[dropkicktheemokid01]

i was high as fuck when i first listened to this album weed or not its amazing!!!

[1988hlias]

"Come my friend, to fate let's raise

Two finger shots at this our last soiree

For tomorrow I fear

Swoops all too deadly near

This precipitous weir to Hell's high gate"

"

[MayaZ3L]

Seriously, his scream is orgasmic.

[kaitenowns]

i recognize the melody at the beginning of the song from somewhere, where else was that melody used? :p

[pastoral88]

@kaitenowns i was just about to write the same thing. same chord progression as boulevard of broken dreams

[LessthanJake6]

Wouldnt be surprised if Dani knew Mefistopheles personally :D

[tigerkinglok]

wow never seen that before ^

[MetaLinkuto]

2:55 my favorite scream ever.

[lycanthrope49000]

@MetaLinkuto Cradle of Filth - The Persecution Song 3.54. U can Love too ^^

[MetaLinkuto]

@lycanthrope49000 oh yeah.heard that one too.really beautiful.

[aod215]

ohhh nostalgia

[RolloNoir]

I can totally imagine Dani as a byronic figure in a typical victorian setting,drinking absinthe with Faust in the dead of night...

[opethinchains]

classic in my book! i thoroughly enjoy coverin this on guitar.

[filth69ify1]

Another Perfect Masterpiece By The Metal Gods. \\m//

[Hungaristi]

Three headbangers talking about this song(From Brütal Legend).

1 guy:It's an angel singing

2.guy:It's a devil screaming

3.guy:It's FUCKING AWESOME!  |,,|

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@Hungaristi Heh, I just got done playing that for a few hours :p

[bfb456123]

@Hungaristi  ha no it's Danni

[TheAhpau]

melodic starting....

[cradleoffilthkitty]

my fav song shame they don't play it live alot

[Emisa000]

some solo parts remind me of the Siren Of the Woods by Therion

[Headbangergio]

An awesome song! This is my fav CoF album. And, I own them all!

[StellaArtw]

It's so incredibly funny that this song is a ripoff from a sweet soft Belgian song! :D The start is identical to Rester Femme by Axelle Red. (watch?v=RY3IAMWLkfM)

Shame on you Cradle of Filth :D

[Aphraxus]

@StellaArtw Only the start though - the piano part, right?

[SRsyndrome]

@StellaArtw Artists rip things off all of the time. Dust In The Wind was a finger exercise, for example. Smells Like Teen Spirit is basically the riff from More Than A Feeling. Break On Through To The Other Side stole from Ray Charles. It's less of a theft and more as a form of flattery, as if it were saying "That part was awesome enough to inspire me to build upon it and use it as the basis of an entire song." COF is from England, so they probably heard her song at some point and liked it.

[TheBabymaker89]

yes this song is fucking awesome, gives me chills, this whole album is just so passionate

[Aphraxus]

I absolutely have to know how the hell he comes up with such brilliant lyrics.

Shakespeare would have been proud.

[HydraArbitrator]

Pour the emerald wine

Into crystal glasses

We will touch the divine

Through kisses catharsis

Let us pitch to the seven-year itch

Of the ultra-decadent

To a tainted world and the painted girls

That our fantasies spent

[Sancrosanct666]

that solo from 2:56 is fucking perfect! ..can´t stop listening to it.. 

[earthboundiam]

@Sancrosanct666 : true indeed! the solo's so fucking amazing it chills me...

[xReggaeReggaebobx]

heard about this band from the IT crowd. but was pleasently surprised a few months ago when i heard one of their songs at my mates house. cradle of filth is my favourite band now.

[Davidevil666ful]

This album is too amazing...

[liveyoungdiefast91]

One thing I've always found funny about this song, is the creepy keyboard doesn't start until the 13th second, the first 12 seconds sound like some nice intro that could go to Full House or the Cosby Show. :P

[splinterFIREify]

Don't like most death/black metal bands, i stick to heavy metal, thrash etc*

But this song fucking rocks

[bristhehunter96]

I really love CRADLE OF FILTH, they are my favourite band =) that's the best song of them!!

[newazcwby]

bad ass song, kick ass lyrics, i like thornography, and godspeed on the devils thunder, as well as their new darkly, darkly venus aversa album, i love this band, never disapointed, they are an acquired taste, for those other loyal fans out there, "We the Nocturnal few, bound by other laws to the service of the enemies of God, are silent and hidden, yet our Exquisite fire burns on, Poised to Engulf..."

[wrabowrabs]

paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius paius

[Lukelikeslemon]

I dont know why thsi album is so hated . Ok Godspeed and Thonorgraphy are totaly gay , but this album ist quite good !

[tDeathwingr]

@Lukelikeslemon Totally true.

[niascand]

This song means a lot to me.

[newazcwby]

i fucking like this song, somebody stole all my CDs, fucking assholes, but all you cradle of filth fans, i guess cradle has done a lot of weird shit lately but i`'m a hardcore dani filth fan, and honestly i like what he's doing, i like this album, it came out when i was a freshman, so it holds a lot of memories. cradle is fucking badass, i like it's an acquired taste, so for those who like it, stay filthy!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nghtmrofdarkness]

I really wish a few more videos were made from Nymphetamine. One of my fav CoF albums. I dont see why its so hated.

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@nghtmrofdarkness Nemesis is like my favorite song. So, naturally, this album is my favorite. I agree.

[nghtmrofdarkness]

@JesseIsASquirrel Dani's vocals on this album are just amazing, my favorite by far. It's a totally different feel from the rest. I think Swansong for a Raven is my favorite, or maybe Coffin Fodder, idk, one of them lol.

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@nghtmrofdarkness Those are both songs of epic proportions, which I should upload at some point, lol. But I'm a guitarist, and I'm more of a fan of Paul's work, myself. Which is expressed -very- well on this album. And Nemesis is my favorite piece of his work. Dani is by far vocally talented as well. Also, I would like to say that I find it -extremely- annoying when people say "That doesn't take talent". It does people. Try to sound like him. You can't.

[undeadsinner13]

@JesseIsASquirrel too right mate :) ...I used to sing exactly like Dani and it took me many months to learn and it isnt something that just anyone can do-it requires an ability to manipulate your vocal cords and even a persons jaw shape and nose shape affects their vocal potential so yeah I laugh when people say they can sing like Dani just by squealing.

[EvilNecrophase]

@JesseIsASquirrel exactly, i try his shill screams and i just cant do it, howling like that takes talent

[n4mel3ss]

@nghtmrofdarkness Why people hate this album? Probably because it was made after 1999. That's where CoF deviates from the style and sheer emotion of their earlier work towards something oldschoolers despise.

[tDeathwingr]

@n4mel3ss For me Damnation and a Day is the best, but i like every album from them.

[tDeathwingr]

@nghtmrofdarkness Its just that really old hardcore cradle fans are dissappointed, because if you like something for a long time and it changes, you just will acknowledge it as a bad change-because it wont be the same anymore for you as it was when you found them. Its sad, though I can't feel that. I like everything cradle ever made, and will.

[tDeathwingr]

@nghtmrofdarkness It's just "loses it's magic"

[timmy25able]

@tDeathwingr I have to agree with that. They sound a little mainstream on this one, but it's still one of my favorites. I won't listen to anything after this one, though. I heard Thornography, and I don't like the change to only one guitarist. I think it lost a lot there.

[DukeNoche]

Thanks for uploading this song

[GirlStufff]

Best part for me is at 2:30 to 3:30 :D Yeahh love it!!!

[remshart]

It's not music. It's art.

[gabebahena]

my favorite like is at 3:05 to 3:20

[Death95168]

Cradle of fith is Fucking AWESOME

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@Death95168 True that.

[mimi9927]

love this song :) <3 cradle of filth xx

[detahdomo]

best cof song.

[brnleague99]

When I saw COF on the Nymphetamine tour, I wanted them to do this song SO much. They didn't. :(

[yuzedsuarez]

I like the scream of total relief of pain 2:56 to 3:07 awesome

[hell4call]

awesome voice

[FallenXxRaven]

I like how this song gets a bit heavier with each verse. Its like he becomes more insane the longer he spends drinking with Faust.

[thexskating]

i fuckin love this shit yo gotta love cradle filth

[Novantii]

this song makes me feel like a titanic dragonlord, i can feel the immense power

[TomPage14]

@heavenxx12 thankyou x

[funfabmegan]

[SmlSirius]

@funfabmegan stfu worthless troll. Go listen to your music, I bet it's crap compared to this.

[Grave187RIP13]

[rayhoskins]

[salamut2202]

[ILBR1414]

'Come my friend, to fate let's raise

Two finger shots at this our last soiree

For tomorrow I fear

Swoops all too deadly near

This precipitous weir to Hell's high gate''

This.

[yuzedsuarez]

Es una cancion diferente de cof, que combina, la fuerza black metal, con la melodia como en esta, tiene partes muy melodicas de mis favoritas de este album.

[atguitar1990]

This is probably the best contender for my favorite COD song, mostly due to that GORGEOUS keyboard line. It gives me chills everytime, and admittedly brought me to tears once when I really got lost in the void of it's sheer beauty. The rest of the song is much the same way, however.

Shit, this entire album is amazing anyhow, so whatever I guess.

[ODIPORIS]

I WISH THIS SONG WOULD NEVER END...

[tehkhold]

@ODIPORIS Put it on repeat. :D

[MrHellokeven]

Lol good music, but old cradle takes the cake. Long Live Cradle.

[Xxxeroe98Xxx]

yehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[CorvusCorpseater]

ahhhh... Absinthe.. a drink of the archfiends

[normajean77]

this song  is just soooooooo insane and totally great !!!!

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@howaboutno3 Because you OBVIOUSLY know YOUR ROLE and SHUT YOUR MOUTH, right?

[123konor123]

@howaboutno3 There is a reason people like you smell like a putrid shit

In the most respectable way i can put this .. The vile blood that runs through your veins is in fact destroying your core from the inside out....

[Murphy4709]

@howaboutno3 if you smell what the rock is cooking

[illFrankie]

IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLL

[TomPage14]

my favourite bit of the song is 0:00 to 5:16

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@TomPage14 Lol, that's my favorite part too :)

[crinutzangel]

@JesseIsASquirrel omg what a coincidence :P i like that 2

[usmc1700]

@TomPage14 Hell Yes!!

[rayhoskins]

[mihaela134]

[LysergicAngel]

He was a predator, creditor cold

Our blood was young on the yellowing scroll

And all that glittered was not gold

But we wanted everything

And for it all lost our souls

[V3lvetPill]

shed* on the yellowing scroll.

[icouldusepants]

Come my friend, to fate let's raise

Two finger shots at this our last soiree

For tomorrow I fear

Swoops all too deadly near

This precipitous weir to Hell's high gate

def best part...he shoulda kept that rhythm goin longer

[MorlotovCupcake]

I don't really like them too, though most of their lyrics would be quite good... I just can't stand his voice.

But this one's an exeption, I've like it from the beginning- somehow.

[tayleriffic]

So, usually I am an COF hater through and through, but this song has always struck a chord with me somewhere. Beauty and perfection!

[robalsager]

@tayleriffic like all their other stuff? lol listen to cruelty and the beast

[waynestock47]

You're the most ignorant prick I have ever fucking heard. Seriously though dude you sound like a fucking piece of shit

[fiddlestickszz]

@waynestock47 go smoke your dope loser!

[JesseIsASquirrel]

@fiddlestickszz Not as much as you, mate [:

[CelorElderOne]

@JesseIsASquirrel

Hear, hear!

[KingConservatory]

I like the repeated bit at 3:26

[GuuGuu13]

Noo, dude !

the fuck'n part is 2:56 *-*

[CelorElderOne]

@GuuGuu13 Yeah, that part gives me the chills. Dani Filth does have a beautiful voice. Beautifully grotesque.

[bammargeralovefoeva]

love love love how he screams at 3:13 my favorite oart by far xD

[FMAangel1993]

Thats my favorite part!!! Its fuckin Beautiful!!!

[boilingbubbles]

why is it that no matter how hard I try, cradle never seems to ring the same bells that the rest of black metal always rings in me?

Ohh, nice scream at thrree min. though.

ps, absinthe is best chugged

[ipooooooooooood]

That one lead is so familiar...It's most definitely taken from another song but I can't put my finger on it.

[U91H3D]

im a christian i believe god will save anyone if they call on his name. love this song its epic :)

[MisanthropicLuv]

i had this shit on repeat when this album came out man... love this efn song!

[LadyMelmoth]

Marlowe's Dr.Faustus was a highly learned man who eventually came to regard the pursuit of knowledge as futile; and henceforth traded his soul to Lucifer in exchange for 24 years of the service of Mephistopheles, a servant of Lucifer, who would accommodate his every desire. Although there was some attempted divine intervention, pride makes Faustus inclined to believe it is better to reign in hell than to serve in heaven. Although the ending of the 1604 version is ambiguous, God doesn't save him

[6666Kenny]

I love that song!

[Arctic2]

just because the word "blood" is mentioned in a song doesn't mean its about cutting :/.

Go back 2 jonas brothers :/.

[farrahgoods]

hahaha

[d2001griffiths]

@Arctic2

Agreed,

[RemiLeopold]

You know whats crazy. Listen to this song, and then listen to The Rock's theme song.

[goblikon]

About what is this song? srry, im not very good at english.
