Azmi H. - 04/Feb/2023 Paradise Lost's fourth release from 1993, "Icon" is a classic slab of gothic metal brilliance that is absolutely amazing in every aspect. The album marks a change in the band's sound as they go from their early death/doom sound which was present on their first three albums "Lost Paradise", "Gothic", and "Shades of God" in favor of a more gothic metal sound.

Vagner C. - 15/Jul/2018 Icon is a little dfferent when compared to former Paradise Lost albums, especially regarding the voice of Nick Holmes, where growls are less.common. It follows Shadows of God, which is also a spetacular album of course.

Eduardo F. - 25/Oct/2017 One of the most genre defining albums of doom metal history.

Marco M. - 22/Aug/2017 Heavier than what I call 'its brother' "Draconian Times", this is another jewel coming from these long time british veterans. No fillers; only fertile seeds of their future albums (Tragic Idol, In Requiem).

Jorge D. - 29/Nov/2016 Uno de los dos mejores trabajos de esta banda, sonido sobrio, oscuro y contundente, la portada y el comienzo del primer track anuncia desde el inicio las líneas armónicas del disco. Muy recomendable...!

Gérald C. - 22/Sep/2015 culte, super groupe depuis leur début, avec plus de 25 ans de carrières
