Note: This is not the banned cover.As reported, the new COF cover artwork for their forthcoming album was banned in the U.S. The record company insisted new artwork be produced, so the band have been hastily working on the new version which is now posted here.A t this time we are not sure if and how many booklets have been produced with the banned artwork on them. More as it happensNew album title explained... by Dani FilthSeen as the title 'THORNOGRAPHY' for the new album was released without our knowledge a few days ago, cradleoffilth.com asked the band direct for an exclusive explination as to what it means.This title represents mankind's obsession with sin and self. The thorn combines images of that which troubled Christ, the crown of thorns, thus intimating man's seeming desire to hurt God and also, of the protecting thorn and the need to enclose a secret place or the soul from attack.An addiction to self punishment or something equally poisonous.A mania. Twisted desires. Barbed dreams. A fetish.An obsession with cruelty. Savage nature. Paganism over Christianity.The title can also represent a sexual attraction to religious iconography as in the case of the 'possessed' Lourdon nuns.I like the title because to me it invokes images of a darker, sexier pre-Raphaelite scene wherein Sleeping Beauty's castle is won and she is awoken by a poisonous kiss.A darker adult faerytale.Hopefully, the new album cover art will be posted as an exclusive here too!il keep u metal fans posted on more info on this....hailCHATHURANGA</blockquote>
