PARADISE LOST - Draconian Times To Be Reissued On Burgundy Coloured Vinyl
June 19, 2010, 14 years ago
On July 26th, Peaceville is reissuing PARADISE LOST's seminal album, Draconian Times, which was originally released in 1995 on Music For Nations and was seen as a new pinnacle of gothic doom metal, featuring classic tracks such as 'Hallowed Land', 'The Last Time' and 'Forever Failure'.
This vinyl editon is numbered and limited to 2000 copies and comes on double 180 gram burgundy coloured vinyl, in a gatefold sleeve and printed inner sleeves and liner notes from the album's producer Simon Efemy.
According to a press release, the album was recorded at Great Linford Manor and Ridge Farm Studios, England, with the prolific writing partnership of singer Nick Holmes and guitarist Greg Mackintosh creating something beyond even their previous albums, whilst retaining the strong union of atmosphere and melody, particularly with the identifiable and often copied guitar tone and playing style. Draconian Times is often referred to as the peak of the band's creativity, and established Paradise Lost as a truly world class act.
