PARADISE LOST, the godfathers of gothic metal, have posted a new e-card online, which features three new tracks (“Never For The Damned,” “Ash & Debris” and “The Enemy”) from their highly anticipated forthcoming release, In Requiem, which is set for a June 5th U.S. release. The e-card also has the stunning new video for “The Enemy” along with a detailed, track-by-track synopsis where each member describes the meaning behind each song and how they came about. The e-card can be viewed here.
The album, produced by Rhys Fulber and mixed by Mike Fraser, marks a return to their heavy trademark sound. Their melancholic atmosphere is as oppressive as ever, but on this go round, the gloom is fused with an equal amount of dense, punishing riffs. Never ones to rest on their laurels, the group brings something new to the table with each successive album, and In Requiem is no exception. PARADISE LOST will make their triumphant return to the U.S. with NIGHTWISH in October. See below for their complete itinerary.
