Paradise Lost Ascension CD (Jewel Case, 2025, Nuclear Blast)

Ascension is the seventeenth studio album by British gothic metal band Paradise Lost

British metal legends Paradise Lost return with Ascension, their monumental 17th studio album, five years after the critically acclaimed Obsidian. Known as the undisputed kings of doom and gloom, Paradise Lost blend Metallica-style riffage, Type-O Negative heaviness, and Nick Holmes’ versatile vocals - ranging from Eldritch-inspired baritone to death growls - to create a sound that evolves while staying unmistakably their own.

Over three decades into their career and with over two million albums sold, Paradise Lost continue to redefine the dark side of metal. From their sludgy doom-death roots to the lush, gothic-metal grandeur of Draconian Times (1995), and through experimental electronic-infused explorations, the band has inspired a generation of artists, including Cradle of Filth, HIM, Gatecreeper, and Chelsea Wolfe.

Ascension sees the Yorkshire quintet at the peak of their powers, combining crushing riffs, atmospheric depth, and masterful songwriting to prove that some bands truly get better with age. This album is a testament to their enduring legacy and influence in the world of heavy metal.

Perfect for longtime fans, collectors, and newcomers, Ascension is a must-have addition to any serious metal collection.

Add Paradise Lost - Ascension CD to your collection today and experience the dark majesty for yourself.
