Of course, Katatonia being my favourite band does have a equally good album out this year, but PL which I had lost faith in have suddenly made their best album ever...all of a sudden. I'm not sure what has happened within the band, their former albums have to me been rather dull. This album simply does not have ONE bad song. This has never happened in a PL album for my part. This is simply just on great song after another and the whole album is very well balanced, pace and everything just works for a change. Whatever happened this time...keep it going!! Your still among the top 5 bands of mine and have been the last 15 years. That is just simply amazing..! :)
An absolute amazing album from these boys yet again,10 tracks of utter brilliance,went to see them last night,they had the place rocking from start to finish,a truly awesome band,long may they continue,10/10.
Paradise Lost have recorded some great tunes and some great albums both before and after Draconian Times. Indeed, the last three CDs have seen them steadily crank up the grandeur and intensity of their music, and while they have been generally considered to be the godfathers of contemporary British doom, their doom has always had an edge to it, a bite in the songs, a strong hint of anger.
And now we have Tragic Idol, and weirdly it all makes sense. TI raises everything by a notch, the production, the attack, the underlying richness of a metal band at the top of their game, all parcelled up in songwriting which is utterly compelling. Of course, no band goes about their day to day, week to month to yearly process thinking, hmm, yeah, all going according to plan (okay, most bands). But as a Paradise Lost fan I've been discerning a progression, and we have now reached Tragic Idol. Could this be the Cistine Chapel of modern doom metal? Damned if I know, but for me this music speaks to my heart as much as it speaks of the world about us.
It has taken a certain strength to make this album, and it will become a source of strength to those who listen.
