PARADISE LOST: Video Footage From Holland's ZWARTE CROSS Festival Available

July 19, 2010

Fan-filmed video footage of PARADISE LOST's July 17, 2010 performance at this year's edition of Zwarte Cross (Black Cross) festival in Lichtenvoorde, Holland can be viewed below (courtesy of "ErhanLiveMetal").

"Draconian Times", the seminal 1995 album from PARADISE LOST, will be reissued on vinyl on July 26 via Peaceville Records. This vinyl edition is numbered and limited to 2000 copies and comes on double 180-gram burgundy-colored vinyl in a gatefold sleeve and printed inner sleeves and liner notes from the album's producer, Simon Efemy.

"Draconian Times" was recorded at Great Linford Manor and Ridge Farm Studios, England, with the prolific writing partnership of Nick Holmes (vocals) and Greg Mackintosh (vocals) creating something beyond even their previous albums, while retaining the strong union of atmosphere and melody, particularly with the identifiable and often-copied guitar tone and playing style.

"Draconian Times" is often referred to as the peak of the band's creativity, and established PARADISE LOST as a truly world- class act.

PARADISE LOST was forced to postone six shows on its European tour in late 2009 due to a serious illness within guitarist Greg Mackintosh's family. Milly Evans, PARADISE LOST's long-standing guitar technician and keyboardist from TERRORVISION, filled in for Greg for the other dates.

PARADISE LOST's latest album, "Faith Divides Us - Death Unites Us", was recorded at Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden with producer Jens Bogren. The CD's artwork, which is based upon a "Danse Macabre" woodcut by Hans Holbein the Younger (first published in 1538),was created by Stefan Wibbeke at Medialogistics (LACUNA COIL, POISONBLACK).
