Title: At The Mill
Artist/Band: PARADISE LOST
Country: UK
Release date: 16/07/2021
Company: Nuclear Blast Records
Style: Death-Doom/Gothic Metal
33 years after their inception, UK's PARADISE LOST are not only one of the most influential metal bands in the world and founders of the gothic metal genre, but also among the most varied acts. From death and doom to catchy synth pop hymns, the quintet from Yorkshire never hesitated to cross boundaries and yet always stayed true to themselves. After a spectacular #2 spot in the German album charts with their latest chef-d'oeuvre “Obsidian”, the band now unveils a live album consisting of 16 tracks that cover nearly every style and big hit from their 3-decade-long career. Captured at The Mill Nightclub near the band’s hometown in Yorkshire, England. I choose tracks: “Blood And Chaos”, “Gothic”, “One Second”, “The Enemy”, “As I Die”, “Requiem”, “Embers Fire” and “Darker Thoughts. Missing many great songs of the band and also big hits… but it’s ok. This release is a kind of a little best of compilation but in live version. Waiting for their next studio release…
