Paradise Lost "One Second" CD

Paradise Lost is known as one of the greatest pioneers of the doom and gothic metal genre, among other legendary doom and gothic bands like My Dying Bride…and with good reason!
With “One Second” they have proven once again that they are a pure force of doom that is here to stay. This album contains a brilliant combination of mysterious keyboard harmonics and electronic sounds. The keyboards have a type of sound that will make you want to become one with the music. The guitars have very special effects that will also draw the attention of the listener. Many people don’t understand the doom and gothic genre, but it is when you pay attention to the smaller and more special details that you realize the ultimate uniqueness. Paradise Lost has certainly passed this “uniqueness test” if I may call it so. You just have to listen to the guitars and keyboards to realize this.
The bass also complements this very special sound of the guitars and keyboards especially in the intro of “Another day”. Like Opeth, Paradise Lost always has lyrics with deep philosophical content. You can rest assure – the lyrical content on this album is definitely not garbage!
The vocals are excellent, to say the least. It is a combination of slow and deep doom and gothic type of vocals combined with a touch of aggressiveness. In my opinion the whole sound of the album is very neatly summed up in the song “Another day”. It is almost as if this song is the core of the whole album. That also goes for a few other songs like “One Second” and “Say just words”. Every single song on this album is brilliant in its own way.
All I can say to Paradise Lost is: Keep the good work up guys!
