If one mentions Cradle of Filth, you will probably think about Nicholas Barker and Adrian Erlandsson as the band's drummers. However, Dave Hirschheimer, better known as Dr. K, was Cradle of Filth's sticksman in 1999.



Hirschheimer joined the band after Nick Barker had parted ways, but was soon followed up by Adrian Erlandsson.



Dave Hirschheimer also played drums in Hangnail, Infestation, and Obsidian. In June 2005 Dr. K was recruited by London based metal/punk outfit Fuckshovel.
