CRADLE OF FILTH's fourteenth studio album, "The Screaming Of The Valkyries", came out in March 2025 via Napalm Records.

"The Screaming Of The Valkyries" was produced, recorded, mixed and mastered by Scott Atkins at Grindstone Studios in Suffolk, England.

In 2023, CRADLE OF FILTH released its first live album in over 20 years, "Trouble And Their Double Lives", via Napalm Records. The LP was recorded between 2014 and 2019 at different performances in the USA, Europe, Australia and beyond during the band's "Cryptoriana" world tour and dates following.

Last year, several former members of CRADLE OF FILTH filed a lawsuit against vocalist Dani "Filth" Davey and the group's management. It followed allegations levelled at the vocalist by guitarist Marek "Ashok" Šmerda and keyboardist Zoe Marie Federoff. The pair quit the group in August 2025 over alleged poor pay and "psychopathic" contracts.

Dani told Hot Metal about the legal dispute: "We just ignored it. We actually, as people, as a band, as me, had done absolutely zero wrong. It was blown out of proportion …

"We've done an American tour, we've done summer festivals, we're firing on all cylinders. CRADLE are back," he explained. "It never went away.

"It's a shame, really, that this sort of thing happens. But life throws curveballs all the time.

"People say, 'Yeah, you've got a new lineup.' Well, do you want a fucking show or not? Bands evolve," Dani added. "Nobody really complains in the workplace if somebody leaves the office or the record label they're working for or the radio show or magazine. It's just a case of mutate and survive. We evolve. We evolve and move on."
