In Music We Trust - Cradle of Filth: Damnation & A Day (496 words)
In an "Order of the Dragon" newsletter (the "official" Cradle of Filth fan newsletter) earlier this year when this album was being recorded, Dani Filth mentioned he wanted this venture to have a concept with an ongoing story line linking the songs together, like "Cruelty and the Beast" or "Midian".
Instead of the classic COF fans have come to know and love, "Damnation and a Day" sounds like it should be the soundtrack of an old Hammer or Roger Corman film.
On "Damnation and a Day", the keyboards take on a "church-like" flavor, and the guitars are all but drowned out in most places by the chorus, orchestra, and overproduction.

Damnation can be a motivator for conversions to Christianity.
One conception is of eternal suffering and denial of entrance to heaven, often symbolized in the Bible as burning and fire.
