Paradise Lost is releasing a remastered version of their classic album Host on March 13th via Nuclear Blast Records. The band has released their first lyric video from the album, the stunning and sad ‘So Much Is Lost’. Watch it now!
Jaime Gomez Arellano, who remastered the album commented: “‘Host’ is a fantastic album with a stellar production. When I had the opportunity to remaster it, I focused on warming it up through analogue tape and giving it more of that analogue ‘vibe’ since a lot of records from that period were a bit thin sounding in comparison to today‘s standards. The remaster resulted in more depth and bass frequencies and generally a warmer and fuller sound. I hope the fans enjoy it!”
Nick Holmes added: “It was interesting to revisit this stage of the band’s history. It’s certainly not metal thrashing mad, but I’ve always regarded some of our strongest material was written around this period, and I still regard ‘So Much Is Lost’ as a really strong song.”
The album will be available as digipack and in three different vinyl colours (black, clear and mint) for the first time ever. Pre-order starts today, you can get your copy here.
