Paradise Lost - Lost Paradise (Remaster) Paradise Lost

THE TIMELESS DEBUT OF BRUTAL ATMOSPHERIC DEATH METAL FROM THE UK LEGENDS - PRESENTED ON BLACK VINYL, FEATURING REMASTERED AUDIO.

Paradise Lost formed in Halifax, West Yorkshire in 1988 & are known for being the founders of the Gothic Death/Doom Metal genre; a style fully brought into existence with their genre-defining second album, the highly influential 'Gothic'

Having released 2 albums, including 'Gothic', for the UK's Peaceville Records & later helping to establish Peaceville as home to the finest trio of UK doom bands (alongside My Dying Bride & Anathema), Paradise Lost then signed with fellow UK label, Music For Nations which eventually led to the band breaking through to mainstream rock & metal audiences as their style evolved, becoming one of the UK's most essential metal exports around the globe in the process.

'Lost Paradise' was the band's debut album, released in 1990 & one of the early highlights in the formative years of Peaceville. Featuring more death metal influences, Paradise Lost created a dark & atmospheric style of death metal as opposed to one based on speed, with the sombre guitar leads of Gregor Mackintosh permeating through the compositions.

'Lost Paradise' was recorded at the famous Academy Studios (My Dying Bride, Anathema, Cradle of Filth) in Yorkshire, England, & stands as an undeniable classic of UK death/doom metal.

This edition of 'Lost Paradise' is presented on black vinyl, featuring remastered audio courtesy of Jaime Gomez at Orgone Studios.
