Our Take

Ah, Paradise Lost, the grandfathers of gothic metal, return with their latest album "Drown In Darkness." If you thought they were already drowning in darkness, well, buckle up because they're about to take you on a journey to the murky depths of despair.

The album kicks off with the haunting title track, setting the tone for what's to come: a relentless plunge into the abyss of doom and gloom. Nick Holmes's vocals are as brooding as ever, carrying a sense of weight and melancholy that can only come from over three decades of experience in the industry.

Tracks like "Tears of the Sun" and "Shadows of the Moon" showcase Paradise Lost's mastery of creating atmospheric, moody landscapes with layers of dense, distorted guitars and pounding drums. It's like being trapped in a haunted house, but in the best way possible.

But don't think this album is all doom and gloom. Paradise Lost also throws in some surprises, like the eerie ballad "Whispers in the Dark" and the almost upbeat "Embrace the Night." It's a rollercoaster of emotions, with highs and lows that will leave you gasping for breath by the end.

Overall, "Drown In Darkness" is a masterful return for Paradise Lost, solidifying their place as one of the most important and influential bands in the gothic metal scene. So grab your black eyeliner, light some candles, and let yourself be engulfed by the darkness. You won't regret it.

About the artist

Paradise Lost

PARADISE LOST - Gothic Metal Titans Hailing from Halifax, West Yorkshire, PARADISE LOST have been pioneering the gothic metal genre since the late 1980s. These lads have been through more ups and downs than a rollercoaster at Blackpool Pleasure Beach, but their unwavering dedication to their craft has solidified their status as legends in the metal scene. Frontman Nick Holmes is the ultimate dark angel, with a voice that can make even the most stoic listener shed a tear. Guitarists Greg Mackintosh and Aaron Aedy bring the riffs like a double shot of espresso on a Monday morning, while bassist Steve Edmondson and drummer Waltteri Väyrynen hold down the fort with precision and power. Their discography reads like a gothic novel, with albums like "Draconian Times" and "Icon" serving as essential chapters in the book of heavy metal history. With lyrics that explore love, loss, and the darker side of humanity, PARADISE LOST are as poetic as they are pulverizing. Whether you're a diehard fan or a casual listener, there's no denying the impact that PARADISE LOST have had on the metal world. So grab your leather jacket, slip on your shades, and let these Yorkshire lads take you on a journey through the shadows of the human soul. Just don't blame us if you end up wanting to dye your hair black and start a coven - blame it on the haunting melodies of PARADISE LOST.
