CRADLE OF FILTH, are set to cast their shadow over European stages once again in 2024, delivering their unmatched live performance and musical brutality to their devoted fanbase during their “Necromantic Fantasies” tour
Commencing on February 10 in Tel Aviv, Israel, this extensive journey will encompass 21 cities, concluding in Košice, Slovakia, on March 8. Following the release of their highly successful 2021 album, “Existence Is Futile,” and their first live recording in two decades, “Trouble And Their Double Lives,” in 2023, the legendary frontman Dani Filth and England’s preeminent extreme metal export are poised to conjure an unforgettable spectacle.
Adding to the tour’s allure, the lineup includes a stellar special guest, The Duke of Spook himself, Wednesday 13, who shares a label with CRADLE OF FILTH at Napalm. Wednesday 13 will celebrate his former band, the revered glam punk icons, MURDERDOLLS, alongside the alternative ensemble SICK N’ BEAUTIFUL. Wednesday 13 and his current band will deliver a riveting set featuring MURDERDOLLS‘ tracks from the band’s acclaimed 2002 debut album, “Beyond The Valley Of The Murderdolls,” as well as selections from their 2010 sophomore release, “Women And Children Last.”
Dani comments: “We are so looking forward to performing at all these extraordinary places on this tour — it will be our first time playing in Turkey, can you believe it? — that it actually hurts!
“In the company of two great bands — WEDNESDAY 13 and SICK N’ BEAUTIFUL — the anticipation for some riotous performances is running very high across the Baltics, the Balkans and Eastern Europe. So prepare yourselves for a night never to be forgotten, one of maleficent spectacle and debauch! You have been warned! See you early next year fellow Filthlings.”
Wednesday 13 adds: “We are extremely excited to be hitting the road with our friends in CRADLE OF FILTH. We will be performing in places in Europe that we’ve never been or haven’t been to in quite some time. We can’t wait to see you all on this tour!”
