The Plague Within

Paradise Lost

A crushing return to death-doom roots. Mournful baritone vocals meet guttural roars amidst weeping lead guitars and monolithic, rain-soaked riffs.

A crushing sense of existential weight balanced by tragic, melodic beauty.

Moments Worth Listening For
The sudden transition from a mournful baritone to a guttural roar in the opening track.
The agonizingly slow, tectonic shift of the riffs in Beneath Broken Earth.
The cinematic swell of the choir and strings that closes out Return to the Sun.
