Lyrically, I've always preferred CoF to Dimmu. Dani's lyrics pull more from history and literature and were more appealing to me. Their female backing singer, Sarah Jezebel Deva, is exceptional and is what truly brought me to love CoF. Recently though, Cradle of Filth has lost their appeal. Their last two albums were okay at best. Dimmu Borgir's latest album, In Sorte Diaboli, was a concept album that really flowed in my opinion, and while lyrically it may not have been mind-blowing, was still very well done with outstanding drumming and leading guitars. In concert, Dimmu gives a much better performance and their set lists have been MUCH better. While it saddens me to say it, when speaking of the future I doubt that CoF will continue to be included in my list of favorite bands; Dimmu may just take their place.

They are both good. I can't really choose who's better.
