Paradise Lost - initally one of the premier death/doom bands that later incorporated electronic elements in their music. They formed in 1988 in Halifax, UK. They are also credited for helping develop the subgenre known as "gothic" metal and later gothic rock.
Ironically, the band is almost unknown in their home country, but in mainland Europe they have been extremely popular for many years, especially in Greece and Germany, where they are regarded as mainstream rock stars. Although they have also been partially attributable for pioneering gothic metal[1], throughout their career the band have also confounded fans and critics alike with their perpetual taste for reinvention and experimentation, a desire to work with producers from other musical genres, and an oft-stated refusal to repeat themselves for fear of stagnation.
