On April 12, 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 came to the beautiful Baroque style venue to celebrate a band that, 20 years since its conception 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 setlist 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.

The live show was filmed and directed by Paul M Green and his Dash Productions team (who previously worked with OPETH, THE DAMNED, GARY NUMAN 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.

Here are the exact release dates:

Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Benelux, Italy: Friday, May 23
Spain, Portugal: Tuesday, May 27
Sweden, Finland, Hungary: Wednesday, May 28
UK, France, Greece, Denmark, Norway, Rest Of Europe: Monday, May 26

Also available as strictly limited 2DVD+2CD and 2LP!

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 avant-garde director Edward 209.

With the band's 20th anniversary in 2008, this DVD is the perfect entertainment for your private anniversary party. A trailer for "The Anatomy Of Melancholy" will be posted online soon!

they were in a funk for a while, but the last 2 albums have been good. not great, but kind of a return to form.

I thought Host, Believe in Nothing and Symbol of Life were pretty good
