Description
Paradise Lost have sold a staggering two million albums worldwide. Their constant reinvention and brazen attitude to musical experimentation has always allowed them to maintain a constant relevance despite the myriad fads and short-lived scenes that have emerged over the last two decades. Indeed few bands that prove so very influential in their infancy maintain the quality of output that Paradise Lost have. They formed the basis of an entirely new genre: Gothic metal. Even now, the influence of Paradise Lost is clearly visible on most Gothic and Heavy Metal bands. Since then the band – named after John Milton’s epic 1667 poem – have released a number of musical highlights and genre merging masterpieces!

Draconian Times is the fifth studio album released by British metal act Paradise Lost. Two tracks from the album, “The Last Time” and “Forever Failure”, were released as singles with music videos, and both charted. The album was referred to as “gloomy, but sublime” and “perfect”. This was the “fulfilment” of the previous promise.
