"You have to be relaxed to aggressive, you can't be aggressive 24/7, you'll literally burn out, you have to be like a flower during the day"

In the second part of our candid conversation with Dani Filth, the front man of Cradle of Filth, we take a closer look behind the curtain of the metal world. Dani opens up about what truly goes down backstage, emphasizing the distinction between perception and reality when it comes to the public image of the band. We also dive into the fine line between courting sensationalism and avoiding outrageous behavior just for the sake of it.

With his characteristic wit, Dani refuses to pick a favorite place to perform, preferring instead to let each show surprise him with its own unique energy. As the conversation unfolds, Dani shares his thoughts on how even the best-laid plans often give way to the unpredictable chaos of life on tour, where survival becomes the primary goal. We also hear about his personal life post-tour, where he’ll be stepping into the role of best man in Arizona (though I say Texas, because... geographical confusion).

And with 2025 on the horizon, Dani hints at new music that promises to add another chapter to Cradle of Filth’s storied legacy.
