Paradise Lost
Faith Divides Us- Death Unites Us (gold)
Luxurious Triple Gatefold, Cardboard Overturned Printed Gold Color, 180 gr vinyls. 500 copies. Looking back at the progression Paradise Lost has made over the years, "Faith Divides Us - Death Unites Us" does seem to rely on two important ingredients that made this band worthy in the first place. Nick Holmes brings back the harsh vocal attack you could find on the bands 93-95 material and while he doesnt sound as cool as he did earlier on. The heavier, yet elaborated approach sees Paradise Lost aiming for several contrasts; the vocals often alternate between wise angry bellows and baritone-esque cleans, yet both aspects are used often which you couldnt say so much about the bands earlier works.
