For over three decades, Paradise Lost have been at the forefront of gloomy metal – with over two million albums sold and a legacy that still resonates today.
Now they are back with “Ascension” – a new, powerful chapter that explores the full depth of their unmistakable sound.
Ten brand new songs, produced by guitarist Gregor Mackintosh, take you through massive doom riffs, melancholic melodies and thunderous gothic metal – steeped in the existential unease of the human experience.
“Ascension” will be released on September 19, 2025 via Nuclear Blast and with “Silence Like the Grave” the lead single has been revealed.
