Grammy Award-nominated extreme institution CRADLE OF FILTH will release its 14th studio album, “The Screaming Of The Valkyries”, on March 21, 2025 via Napalm Records. Following the recent release of their new single “To Live Deliciously”, the track’s music video has been released now.

Watch To Live Deliciously” below.

CRADLE OF FILTH master of ceremonies Dani Filth says about the new video: “An observation on religious restraint as well as being a window to tout a bit of blasphemous filth, the video for ‘To Live Deliciously’ (our second from the new album) is a pleasant social engagement betwixt a pious young nun and her mentor priest. Just with a smattering of demonic possession and sexual misconduct added for good stock.”

Watch the previously released “Malignant Perfectionbelow.

On “The Screaming Of The Valkyries”Dani‘s recognizable scream and equally identifiable growl stand mightily alongside twin guitar attacks, symphonic flourishes and explosive rhythm section, implemented by drummer Martin “Marthus” Skaroupka, bassist Daniel Firth, guitarists Marek “Ashok” Smerda and Donny Burbage and keyboardist/vocalist Zoe Federoff.

Produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by Scott Atkins at Grindstone Studios in Suffolk, England, The Screaming of the Valkyries beckons the brave into a new era of CRADLE OF FILTH misadventure, celebrating massive melancholic melody, blackened thrash, and apocalyptic existential dread with a grinning smattering of unbridled revelry. The Screaming of the Valkyries is a bloody dark love letter to the longtime legion of CRADLE OF FILTH faithful and a stunning entryway for fresh lambs to the sonic slaughter.
