Lovecraft & Witch Hearts Reviews: Extremely Creative  2008-09-26 - This is a really good cd. It has speed, creativity, high pitched vocals and an element of 'fantasy' music to it. Very well produced with good sound and never predictable.
Somewhat of a spoiler...  2007-05-11 - I really like Cradle of Filth, and I wanted to own each and every one of their albums. But albums like this kind of push me away from doing so because they contain various songs from many other CD's that make the innovative factor of those CD's go way down. It's a good album soundwise, but it totally gives too much away that prevents me from entirely wanting to own CD's like Cruelty and the Beast. I bought Midian, but I was disappointed when I found that the majority of songs on that CD were already on this one which I had come to own first. I wish that the group would stick with the innovative album strategy instead of compiling mixes like this one.
LOL  2006-07-22 - This is hilarious. These guys are making simple, uneffective music while dressing up like 10 year olds on halloween, WAY TO GO. This is stupid and anybody who likes it is probably just as stupid.
Strange  2006-02-13 - This compilation collects music from the releases produced for "Music For Nations", specifically 'Dusk... And Her Embrace', 'Cruelty and the Beast', 'From the Cradle to Enslave' and 'Midian'. Disc one is a greatest hits collection from these albums while disc two focuses on rarities. Well what can be said about this collection? Only that it doesn't work very well. While the track selection for the first disc is overall excellent, one track is quite puzzling. That being the inclusion of 'Funeral in Carpathia (Be Quick or Be Dead Version)' from the 'From the Cradle to Enslave'. Why on earth was this inferior and rushed sounding version included on this collection instead of the amazing original from 'Dusk... And Her Embrace'? Heck why was it ever recorded in the first place? The second disc fares rather poorly. Do we really need four remixes? Or the godawful techno remix 'Twisting Further Nails'? I was mostly interested in this compilation to get my hands on 'Carmilla's Masque' and their cover of Slayer's 'Hell Awaits' both from the import version of 'Dusk... And Her Embrace'. Those two tracks hardly made the purchase worthwhile. I should have known from the special edition of 'Cruelty and the Beast' that Cradle simply do not do good covers. Overall this is a disappointing compilation for completists only. For the newcomer I suggest you just pick up the albums themselves. There are simply way too many great tracks from their albums that they could not fit on this release.
Not REAL black metal.....but very impressive!  2005-10-19 - I am a huge death/black metal fan, and i have to ay i DO love CoF. They arent "True" black metal but who the hall cares!!???? They have incredible musiciansship and songs that are just plain amazing! I love Burzum, Darkthrone, Nile, Gorgoroth....etc... this is just as good! If you are only into heavy "True" black metal thats cool...but you have to admit that CoF HAS skills...even if you dont like them.
