Following yesterday’s announcement of Adrian Erlandsson’s departure from CRADLE OF FILTH, the band have wasted no time securing a new drummer in Marthus (a.k.a. Martin Å karoupka). Born in the Czech Republic, Marthus, who the band describe as “a fine gent who’s skills are second to none,” has previously played in GALACTIC INDUSTRY and INNER FEAR. Marthus will continue to play the rest of CRADLE OF FILTH’s current European tour.
