Album of the Week: Cradle of Filth’s Midian


Psyclon Nine — “Use Once and Destroy,” from the album Order of the Shadow: Act I (2013).
Psyclon Nine — “Glamour Through Debris,” from the album Order of the Shadow: Act I (2013).
Psyclon Nine — “Bloodwork,” from the album We the Fallen (2009).
Psyclon Nine — “Heartworm,” from the album We the Fallen (2009).
Psyclon Nine — “Parasitic,” from the album Crwn Thy Frnicatr (2006).
I discovered Psyclon Nine many moons ago, while I was in college. I used to listen to “Inri” and “Behind a Serrated Grin” every day while doing schoolwork.
Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to meet front man Nero Bellum, who is on tour with Sköld. With any luck, I will be seeing Psyclon Nine in October. (Fingers crossed!)
Anyway, I decided to feature Psyclon Nine because they’ve been on my mind since the Sköld show, and my album of the week is 2009’s We the Fallen.
