Cradle of Filth

Hail to gothic blackened extreme metallers "Cradle of Filth" for their nods to "Hellraiser".
The albums "Midian" and "Nympetamine" don't just have quotes from the movies,but better, they actually have several nice speeches from Doug Bradley{actor whom plays "Pinhead"} as intro's,interludes,outro's to songs. they actually hired him to do in his Pinhead voice great speeches they wrote as part of their lyrics.
Not only that but they make referance to Cenobites in a few songs.


songs from "Midian"

Dougs Quotes{in Pinhead voice} on Cradle Of Filth albums:
""We've woven hearts a thorn arbour
Left tear streaked reason upon the shore
And bereft of compass, star or more
Set out for this World's end
Few at the prow, most slave below
Painting coal a perfect gold
But for all it's worth, the engines slow
Dead in the brine again
Come cabin fever, sodomy on the bounty
Prey to phallus seas
That hiss and foam to douse disease
A storm roars on the way
Blacker than the Ace of Rapes
Dealt out by Death in darkwood glades
Our Ship of Fools, all boards handmade
Sinks, dashed by seismic waves"
TAKEN FROM "DEATH MAGICK FOR ADEPTS"

""The Moon, she hangs like a cruel portrait
soft winds whisper the bidding of trees
as this tragedy starts with a shattered glass heart
and the Midnightmare trampling of dreams
But no, no tears please
Fear and pain may accompany Death
But it is desire that shepherds it's certainty
as We shall see..."
TAKEN FROM "HER GHOST IN THE FOG"

""Oh, sweet Midian
I burn for thee at heart
Don't despair me
Come bare me on wings of graveyard robbed leather
To where pleasure rings deep secrets
In spurts after dark..." *
TAKEN FROM "TORTURED SOUL ASYLUM"


songs from COF album-"Nymphetamine=

Glory and praise to thee in all the steeps
Of Heaven where thou didst reign, and in the deeps
Of Hell where fallen thy dream, silently.

[From "Les Litanies de Satan"]"
TAKEN FROM "SATYRIASES"

"Forgive the day's
Last serenades
Her skies they bruise like Nordic women
Deep crimson stains
That Death would claim
His robes of office swim in;

;For on and in they spread her wide
That seraph bride
The Devil's pride
Shalt soon avenge with swift reprise"
TAKEN FROM "SWANSONG FOR A RAVEN"

"{along w/other vioces chanting} Ea,Ea,Cthtulu fatogen" over and over again for a about a minute, as the intro to the song "Mother of Abominations".


The following is a verse from COF's song "Tortures Soul Asylum" that mentions the word Cenobite
"Exhuming the moon
Through the bars in My room
The sooner the bitter pills swallowed are through...
But no Aphrodites, Genotypes, Demonarchetypes,
No Cenobites rise to clame me from you"
Album="Midian"

I also wanted to mention progressive Black Metaller gods "DIMMU BORGIR"-whom use a phrase that was use din the Hellraiser movies
"Demon to some,angel to others" in their song- "Hybrid Stigmata-The Apostasy".from the album "puritanical euphoric misanthropia"

Mortician

The death metal band "Mortician" has a song called "Hell On Earth"
about the Hellraiser movies.
Mortician-'hell on earth'
from the album-'Zombie Apocalypse'
"5. Hell on Earth

Box of terror
Pain or pleasure
Onep the door
Death and torture

Minions of Hell
Enter the world
Torment begins
Hooks tear the skin

Ripping the flesh
Slow brutal death
Endless screaming
Torn to pieces"

The above song opens with a sound sample about a minute or two in length from the first Hellraiser movie, it's been awhile since I listened to it or watched the first Hellraiser movie{even though they are my fave movies and I have all of them except for the newest one-"deaders"},so I will try to remmebr what I can;
"{Kirsty Cotton}Leave me alone, you can...ah...go to hell
{female Cenobite}we can't,not alone.
{either pinhead or a cenobite,not sure which}You opened the box, it summoned us, we came, now you must come w/us,taste our treaures
{cenobite}moan....
{Kirsty}Wait... you know Frank Cotton, he escaped you I can take you to him...
{Pinhead}Assuming he had escaped us, what has that got to do w/you...
{Kirsty}you can take him back instead of me...
{female cenobite}perhaps, but if you cheat
{Pinhead}we'll tear your soul apart"

and the song ends w/this outro sample from the first Hellraiser movie, again, been awhile-I'll recall what I can;
"{Pinhead}Fraaank
{Frank Cotton to Kirsty}you set me up up Bitch
{Pinhead to Kirsty}This isn't for your eyes
~sounds of chains, tearing sounds~,
{Frank}Jesus Wept
~frank screaming in pain as he's torn apart~"

That's all I got for now.




"Thou shall not bow down before any graven images"-Pinhead

Hail
Bill Baker

Your Welcome and...{ENTOMBED}

No problem Vexen.

Actually I know of more. In one of the songs on the band ENTOMBED's album "wolverine blues"{one of the last songs of the album} they have an intro OF Pinhead saying "I am the way". I just can't remember which song as I have'nt heard the album in so long.

Hail Pinhead
Bill Baker


"{Priest}My child, what on earth is the matter?
{Joey}I keep running but they just keep coming, they keep comin!
{Priest}who keeps keeps comin?
{Joey}The demons, the demons!
{Priest}Oh child, demons are'nt real, the're parables, a metaphor.
{Pinead bursts through the door of the Church}
{Joey}Then what the fuck is that?!"; Church scene, Hellraiser 3.

Looking for an old song...

I'm looking for an old techno song that I believe has reference to hellraiser. The only thing I remember about it is "the box, the box, give me the box!"

Re: Looking for an old song...

im also looking for this song, think it starts with lyris like "we're going on a journey to the depths of the earth" or something like that cant quite remember its a mid 90's dance tune,is this the one you mean? let me know it you find it first.....

Looking for another song...

That is based on the sample "Don't Look at me" from the first Hellraiser.
The sample runs over and over, folloed by another sample that just says "Jesus" in a dark and slow voice. The music itself is a piano loop and a drum machine. Been looking for the title for quite awhile now, I only got it on an old casette with no titles. My guess is the song was made in late 80s.

Re: Looking for another song...

"Don't Look at Me" is by Blind Vision (Andreas Froese). I have the German 12"; looks like it's released by NewZone, published by ICM/Hanseatic, though it also says "Music from Technoclub". No copyright, but I could swear this came out c. 1991.

(Knew I had this in my collection somewhere, but couldn't recall the artist , and all my vinyl is organized by artist. A Google search for 'techno "Don't Look at me" "Hellraiser" samples 12" remix' brought me here, which still didn't give me the artist, but Yahoo's first hit got me to some guy's "Top 200 Sample Sources" list, and there is was...Blind Vision. Just sayin, don't always rely on Google.)
