It’s now more than a year and a half since the idea of a collaboration between Ed Sheeran and Cradle Of Filth was first mooted. Have we heard anything yet? I think you know the answer to that.

When Ed Sheeran and Bring Me The Horizon opened the BRIT Awards last week with a metal version of ‘Bad Habits’ I think everyone watching – every single one – immediately screamed, “What about Cradle Of Filth?!”After all, the extreme metal band were the first to talk about working on a heavy collaboration with Sheeran and it looked a little like they’d been sidelined for some more chart-friendly metallers. It’s alright though, Ed Sheeran can manage more than one riff partnership. Things are still at the discussion stage regarding the Cradle Of Filth collaboration though.“Ed’s expressed a desire to be part of a song, and we’re currently looking at some options, and that’s about as far as it’s got”, the band’s frontman Dani Filth tells Heavy Consequence.“The thing that interests me [is] the juxtaposition between what we do and what he does”, he adds.

Ed Sheeran has reportedly been given the green light to build a crypt under the floor of a chapel on his estate in Suffolk.The singer submitted a planning application to East Suffolk Council in December in regards to his estate, which is located near the town of Framlingham and close to where Sheeran grew up.As The Guardian reports, Sheeran is seeking permission to construct a crypt in the nave of the chapel, which itself has been described as a “private place of retreat for contemplation and prayer”.The chapel, which is still under construction after it was finally approved in 2019 following setbacks, is set to be flint-lined and feature a lead roof, stained-glass windows and a spiral-stair tower.The chapel’s crypt, which is the subject of this latest planning application, would be a 1.8-by-2.7 metre “burial zone beneath (penetration through slab)” the chapel’s ground floor.The Sun reports that Sheeran has now been given the all-clear by East Suffolk Council’s environmental and conservation officials, despite a staunch objection from one local resident.Local councillors will now have the final say on whether Sheeran’s plans for the crypt will be officially approved.

Cradle Of Filth are “looking at some options” for their forthcoming Ed Sheeran collaboration, according to the band’s frontman Dani Filth.The unlikely team-up was first mooted last summer after Sheeran said that he “was really into death metal as a kid”, adding: “I listened to Cradle of Filth and Slipknot and all that stuff.”Filth subsequently revealed that he and Sheeran had been in touch about a potential collaboration, and that the Suffolk singer was “a massive fan” of the band.Speaking to Heavy Consequence in a new interview, Filth has now given a fresh update on the progress of his band’s collaboration with Sheeran.“Ed’s expressed a desire to be part of a song, and we’re currently looking at some options, and that’s about as far as it’s got,” Filth said. “He did invite me up to his house – he doesn’t live very far from me, probably 18 to 20 miles from where I live.“The thing that interests me, if we would undertake [the collaboration], the juxtaposition between what we do and what he does.

Cradle of Filth have released new song ‘Necromantic Fantasies’ alongside a suitably spooky video – watch it below.“This is a very different video from its predecessor, sporting more of a narrative amid leaning back toward a dark Victorian gothic vibe, showcasing the second of many unique tracks on this, our 13th album,” said vocalist Dani Filth.“It’s very cinematic, much like ‘Crawling King Chaos’ (the first single taken from the album) but walking a much more ​‘dark faerytale’ path. The director Vicente has done such an amazing job bringing the storyline together with the band and the incredible sets.

Ed Sheeran has discussed the possibility that he might one day write a metal album, saying it’s “something I would not be opposed to creating”.Hot on the heels of his new single ‘Bad Habits’, Sheeran spoke to The Sun about his formative explorations into the genre, where he revealed that he “was really into death metal as a kid”.“I listened to Cradle Of Filth and Slipknot and all that stuff,” he said. “I’m not saying I could ever step into that world.
