Paradise Lost made mention a few times this year they were writing a new record. Now they've confirmed the record is being committed to tape at Orgone Studios with producer Jaime Gomez Arellano, who produced both the band's 2015 record The Plague Within and 2017 record Medusa.
As a few of you may have already heard; we are almost done writing the new album, and we will head into the studio with Jaime Gomez Arellano at Orgone Studios again at the end of the month!
In related Paradise Lost news, the band has their own biography coming out in November. The biography is called No Celebration: The Official Story of Paradise Lost, was written by David E. Gehlke, and features a foreword by Bolt Thrower vocalist Karl Willetts. You can pre-order that here.
From their beginnings in the dreary North of England, to the development as the forerunners of gothic doom metal with their legendary 1991 album, Gothic through their dalliance with the fringes of the European rock mainstream, Paradise Lost had the metal world at its fingertips. Their need to experiment, however, took them down paths few bands dared to travel.
Paradise Lost vocalist and co-founder Nick Holmes calls No Celebration, “a very in-depth, informative and—from my point of view—nostalgic look at the last 30 years of the band. Many of the stories feel like they were yesterday, and although it serves as a reminder that life is short, I also wouldn't change a thing. Well, not much anyhow.”
