British extreme metallers Cradle of Filth will return to the studio in December to resume work on their next project, an orchestral album titled “Midnight In The Labyrinth”, which, according to vocalist Dani “Filth” Davey, will “reinvent” tracks from the band’s first four albums and include “full soundtrack-quality stuff… with choirs, strings and some narration.” A studio date of December 5 has been set for “big choirs to be added to the haunting melee,” Filth writes in his latest online update. “All songs will be fully orchestrated akin to a horror movie soundtrack (think Danny Elfman, John Williams, Christopher Young, etc.) and are comprised solely of tracks from our first four releases” — 1996 EP “Vempire Or Dark Faerytales In Phallustein”, 1994’s “The Principle Of Evil Made Flesh”, 1996’s “Dusk… And Her Embrace” and 1998’s “Cruelty And The Beast” — “‘Funeral In Carpathia’ being my favorite conversion thus far.”
