Cradle of Filth's Bitter Suites to Succubi is essentially an EP - or "transitional mini album" as Dani Filth would have it - bridging the gap between Midian and Damnation and a Day while the band negotiated their label change from Music For Nations to Sony. It features only six new tracks (two of which are instrumentals), but is bolstered to album-length with three reworkings of songs from The Principle of Evil Made Flesh ("The Principle of Evil Made Flesh", "Summer Dying Fast" and "The Black Goddess Rises"), and a cover version. It was the band's first release on their own Abracadaver label. Uniquely in the band's canon, it features exactly the same band members as the previous album. This would be the last studio album to feature long-term bassist Robin Eaglestone.
"Dinner at Deviant's Palace" is actually The Lord's Prayer played backwards.
On the special edition version of the CD, the track listing spells "Scorched Earth Erotica" as "Scorched Earth Erotics".
