Cryptoriana – The Seductiveness of Decay is the twelfth studio album by the British extreme metal band Cradle of Filth. It was released on September 22, 2017, through Nuclear Blast Records.[1]
Dani Filth said the album "is deeply infused with Victorian gothic horror and thus the title is a reflection of that. 'Cryptoriana' implies the Victorians' infatuation with the supernatural, the grave and the ghoulish. And the subtitle, 'The Seductiveness of Decay', further cements this attraction to death and the glittering lengthy process of self-annihilation".
The first promotional single, "Heartbreak and Séance", premiered alongside an accompanying music video on July 11, 2017.[2]
The second single, "You Will Know the Lion by His Claw", premiered together with a lyric music video on August 8, 2017.[3]
The third single, "Achingly Beautiful" was also released in conjunction with a lyric video on September 15. Vocalist Dani Filth stated the single "has a very old-school Cradle vibe." and compared it to the song "A Gothic Romance" from the album Dusk and Her Embrace.[4]
