With the band’s 20th anniversary in 2008, PARADISE LOST present their first official live album.

The set-list includes songs that the band hasn’t played live in a long time, such as "Eternal", "Gothic" or "Sweetness" and other classics from their impressive album roster.

On April 12th 2007, UK Gothic Metal pioneers PARADISE LOST played a sold-out show at the Koko club in the heart of Camden, London to record a DVD. Fans and media from all over the world swarmed the beautiful Baroque style venue, initially opened in 1900 as “The Camden Theatre”, to celebrate a band that, 20 years since they began in 1988, is still one of the most exciting bands of their self-defined genre. Starting with the UK live debut of “The Enemy” from PARADISE LOST’s latest album In Requiem (which came out one month later), the set-list includes songs the band hadn’t played live in a long time prior to that night, such as “Eternal” and “Gothic” from their 1991 album Gothic, the rare B-side “Sweetness” from their 1994 Seals The Sense single and other classics from their impressive album roster. With a tracklist like this it’s easy to win over the audience and be rewarded with enthusiastic feedback, but even the highly critical UK press were convinced by the band’s honest and pure energy: “Perhaps it’s simply due to the greatest hits nature of the show, but the band’s output is given a continuity tonight somehow missing on previous occasions. To some extent, it’s as though PARADISE LOST have come full circle, now visibly comfortable with their various incarnations…” (Terrorizer, June 2007). The live show was filmed and directed by Paul M Green and his Dash Productions team (who already worked with Opeth, The Damned, Gary Numan, Siouxie Sioux, and many more). Jens Bogren (Opeth, Katatonia, Amon Amarth, Symphony X, etc.) mixed the brilliantly captured live sound at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden, and the dark enchanting cover artwork was done again by Greek artist Seth who already worked on the band’s last two album covers. The bonus material features interviews with all band members, quotes from the fans at the Koko, a half hour road movie from the following European tour in Fall 2007 and the highly acclaimed “The Enemy” promo video, shot on the Crimean peninsula by Russian avantgard director Edward 209. With the band’s 20th anniversary in 2008, this DVD is the perfect entertainment for your private anniversary party. So lean back and enjoy The Anatomy Of Melancholy.
