Band BiographyGothic metal pioneers and arguably one of the best and most influential rock bands Britain has ever produced, 2008 marks Yorkshire's kings of gloom Paradise Lost's twent year, and heralds the coming of their eleventh album, 'In Requiem', on May 21st.Over their two decade long career, Paradise Lost have not only created and defined genres and styles, but almost immediately transcended them. From the crawling, harrowing doom of their 1990 debut 'Lost Paradise', to the electronic flourishes prevalent in 1997's 'One Second', 1999's 'Host' and 2005's stunning self-titled album, their sound has continued to evolve vastly, but haunting melody |
and dark rock power has remained at the very core of their identity. In 1991 the band released 'Gothic', not so much an album title as the definition for an entire genre, while the influence 1995's huge-selling masterpiece 'Draconian Times' – the missing link between Metallica and the Sisters of Mercy - echoes loudly in today's scene. 'In Requiem' sees the band taking a slight step away from the moodier leanings of their last few records into more stripped down territory, and continuing to push the envelope of what can be done with the dark side of heavy metal. |
