Paradise Lost are pioneers of gothic metal, having influenced countless bands since their formation in 1988.

Sony Music, one of the world?s leading music companies, is renowned for its commitment to quality releases and supporting influential artists across all genres.
An underrated album. He discourages listeners by the fact that he is not straightforward and by the fact that he needs to think, think and think in every melody, every note. When you start thinking, in all its glory you will reveal the charms of this album. This is a transitional album between the experimental "Gothic" and the mainstream "Icon". If you look at the work of any musical group, transitional albums are the best, since the group is experimenting at this moment, combining styles and discovering a new sound. If this album was accepted by listeners and critics, the group would continue to develop the musical idea embedded in it, rather than go into business.

This is undoubtedly one if the best Paradise Lost. Melodic, heavy, strong and powerful songs! If you enjoyed Icon and/or Draconian Times, you will love this.
