Cradle of Filth's particular subgenre has provoked a great deal of discussion.
Their first three demos have been claimed by reviewers to emerge a death metal sound, with occasional symphonic elements. However, when they released their fourth demo, Total Fucking Darkness, their genre became more akin to black metal.
Their "true" black metal status however, has been in debate since near the time they became popular.
Dani, in a 1998 interview for BBC Radio 5 for example, said "I use the term heavy metal, rather than black metal, because I think that's a bit of a fad now. Call it what you like: death metal, black metal, any kind of metal...", while Gavin Baddeley's 2006 Terrorizer interview states that "few folk, the band included, call Cradle black metal these days."
