"Vempire or Dark Faerytales in Phallustein" is Cradle of Filth's second official release, following "The Principle of Evil Made Flesh". The title is a play on the words "vampire" and "empire". It was the band's final release for Cacophonous Records, and was hastily written and recorded for that label as a contractual obligation, before the band jumped ship to Music for Nations. It is generally considered an EP rather than a full album. The back cover describes it as "a ritual comprised of six parts and having a duration of forty minutes". Despite the circumstances of its release, "Vempire" was generally well-received.

"Vempire" has a cleaner, better produced sound than the band's debut, but retains the fast, highly technical instrumentation. Dani's vocals are also a lot clearer in the mix, and vary between a number of aggressive styles to give a more theatrical feel to the overall production. It includes a revamped version of the previous album's "The Forest Whispers My Name". "Vempire" is the first recording to feature backing vocalist Sarah Jezebel Deva.

"Queen of Winter, Throned" was listed among twenty-five "essential extreme metal anthems" in the issue of "Kerrang!" magazine dated October 7th, 2006. The song in question was an evolution of the song "A Dream of Wolves in the Snow" from their previous album.

All of the tracks on the album are original tracks, except for "The Forest Whispers My Name" which was a re-recorded track of the original which appeared on their debut album, "The Principle of Evil Made Flesh".
