English extreme metal giants Cradle of Filth brought some friends a long to The Academy in Dublin as part of their By Order of the Dragon tour.
Those friends being American Rock band Black Satellite, American Metalcore act Butcher Babies, UK Goth Rock band High Parasite and better not forgot the crowd that packed out the sold out night.
First up on stage were Black Satellite followed closely by High Parasite, then came the turn of a cut back Butcher Babies who carved the way nicely for the main act Cradle of Filth.
