I
could start off this review by saying that this is no real new CoF album but
then I would be lying a bit. It does indeed contain six brand new symphonies
from the biggest black metal band in the world but there are also three
re-recorded tracks from their first album and one cover of the Sisters Of
Mercy song 'No Time To Cry'. These inbetween-albums-releases from the band
are not of the same quality as the 'real' albums but 'Bitter Suites To
Succubi' is at least a lot better than the disastrous 'From The Cradle To
Enslave' EP. The intro of this album is however far from what we are used to
hear from these British vampires and it seems like Dani hasn't put as much
effort as usual into the writing process even though it is still hundreds of
times better than the lyrics of most bands of today. Still, Cradle Of Filth
will always be Cradle Of Filth and this album marks the beginning of a new
musical era where black metal has found its way to the major label world of
Sony. With the first album on Sony next year (2002) they will hopefully claim
and secure the throne of darkness once
again.
