Cradle Of Filth frontman would no longer wear the band’s legendary hoodie: “I don’t want to get spit on my food”

English metal band Cradle Of Filth caused outrage and moral panic with the band shirt they launched in 1993. The band’s shirt, which reads “Jesus is a cunt”, has attracted much criticism and has even been banned from sale around the world.

However, in a recent interview with Stroke The Fire, the band’s frontman Dani Filth admits that he would not wear the shirt today.

“As disgusting as it is, I have to admit that I would be uncomfortable wearing it now. My girlfriend and I went out for dinner and she put it on without thinking because it was chilly outside. She wore a tidy version of it, but it was still visible enough. I looked at her in horror: ‘Oh my God, what are you doing?’ I don’t want to get spit up on my food. It was an awkward situation, but I’m glad we made that shirt , it was fun,” says Filth.
