Paradise Lost, the sole creaters of Gothic Metal, have after 17 years of being together have produced their tenth studio album.
The whole album is very good, the single Forever After is the only track that seems out of place, much more lets run about and have lots of energy rather than the melacholy you would expect from such goth gods. Even though it doesn't flow with the rest of the album it is still a great song.
The album does need a few listens to if you are an old Paradise Lost fan, but if you are a new fan it's very good and just get's better as time goes on. The album makes you involve yourself into the album rather than it forcing itself apon you.
The last 3 songs are fantastic end to and album with a great guitar solo and the music and the lyrics are deeply moving.
This album is great for anyone who likes the new wave of goth, well since all those bands copy this style so much you'd think Paradise Lost were copying from you favourite bands.
Advantages: Melodic and catchy, the solos are back! Disadvantages: bland, not as good as previous work
As one of the most constantly evolving acts on the metal landscape, it's easy to forget that ParadiseLost began their career as one of the underpinning bands of the Northern English Doom scene. While their counterparts have in many cases remained true to the sound, or deviated into more modern incarnations, not even Nick Holmes' distinctive vocal chords lend a nod to the fact that ParadiseLost 2005 are the same band responsible for 1990's seminal release 'LostParadise'. After flirtations with electronica and various commercialisms, ParadiseLost have settled into playing a hybrid of gothic tinged, sample laden heavy rock with 2002's 'Symbol of Life' showing that they may well have finally found their feet.
Thankfully, the band clearly haven't forgotten their misery filled roots as the British audience have had to wait several ...
Advantages: catchy and enjoyable, uncomplicated and entertaining songs, good guitars/keyboards Disadvantages: Nothing hugely original, not for those with an aversion to cheese
Released in 2000 by Nuclear Blast Records, 'Believe' is the seventh full-length by German gothic metal band Crematory. Essentially it consists of poppy and catchy, polished gothic/industrial rock/metal that lies somewhere between the more mainstream output of ParadiseLost and Rammstein, with plenty of tinkly keyboards and cheesy, sweeping synths. The vocals meanwhile are a mix of clean singing in the style of ParadiseLost's Nick Holmes alternated with booming gravelly growls, and fit well around the simple song structures.
Whilst Crematory's sound might be quite derivative and is most certainly cheesy, 'Believe' remains an energetic and uplifting album with well-constructed songs, catchy chugging riffs and enjoyable gothic rock choruses. The album works slick, rocky clean sections with melodic gothic keyboards and immensely ...
Advantages: Everything about it Disadvantages: I WANT MORE!!
I am kind of annoyed at the low number of reads this op has had because it's the only album I've reviewed with such a broad appeal! Oh wel...
How Measure A Planet?, the fifth full length (actually a double album) from The Gathering. The Gathering is a Dutch band who rose from the Doom-Death movement in the early 1990s along with the likes of Anathema, ParadiseLost and My Dying Bride. Like both ParadiseLost and Anathema they have constantly and consistently refined and advanced their sound over the years, incorporating a great deal of influence from Pink Floyd.
Essentially the theme, which runs right through the album, is that of ‘Escapism’. The idea of escapism is explored on all levels, even extending to the album cover itself, which depicts the engine of an Apollo Space Rocket.
The average length of each ...

Album Notes
Tenth studio album from the onetime kings of Brit goth metal, following 2002's 'Symbol Of Life'. This marriage of the slick, Depeche Mode-esque electro pop of their last few albums with a return to the crunching doom metal riffs of their earlier material works well, with the surprisingly melodic result all wrapped up in a crisp, clean production job by industrial techno pioneer, Frontline Assembly's Rhys Fulber.
