Talk:Midian (album)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] 58/EH
Does anyone know what the number 58 ot the letters E.H. stands for? Midian is 58:58 sec long (the article says 58:56 but my CD-player shows 58:58), and in the booklet the letters EH appear in the sentence "Cradle of Filth MM EH". I suppose MM is 2000 and since the record is from that year, i guess EH stands instead of A(nno)D(omini). But what does it mean? Could it have something to to with Lovecraft or Clive Barker's Cabal/Nightbreed? 81.216.34.170 16:52, 21 January 2007 (UTC) (MellonCollie on svwiki)
- I don't think 58 has any significance. My CD player has it at 58:58 too, but my computer makes it 58:51. Whatever - it's just how long the album is. Nothing occult. MM is certainly 2000, and all the Cradle albums have the date with EH after it, so it's not just exclusive to Midian. As for what it means.. I'm intrigued! I'd never noticed before. I've been trying to find out, but I've not had any success so far. My only initial thought is that it might be Ecce Homo (which has resonance with both the crucifiction and Nietszche), but I'll keep looking... Cardinal Wurzel 23:21, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

- Maybe 58 means nothing, but I just figured since E is the 5th letter of the alphabet and H is the 8th (EH=58), maybe they had something to do with each other... 81.216.34.170 19:57, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
