the twelfth Paradise Lost is among about 30 metal releases of 2009, that I have allowed myself, my personal highlight. the tragically beautiful melodies also were in the almost "pop" mainstream days in the wake of moderate to later Depeche Mode never go away, but now the punchy guitars are finally back and Holmes also nick it will again know ... as a fan of the old (to ancient *) publications can hardly believe it for joy: "Faith ..." deafened, also due to the excellent, powerful production, so vehemently out of the speakers, as if to all aberrations of recent years forgotten do. * Friends of "Lost Paradise" or "gothic" will surely understand that the earliest phase of the band for "Faith ..." was not exhumed; a return to the end of the eighties / early nineties has probably nobody expected serious.
