Paradise Lost are an English gothic metal band. Formed in Halifax, West Yorkshire, in 1988, they are considered to be among the pioneers of the death-doom genre, and regarded as the main influence for the later gothic metal movement.
As of 2005, Paradise Lost have sold over two million albums worldwide.
Their line-up has remained stable for such a long-standing heavy metal band, consisting of singer Nick Holmes, guitarists Greg Mackintosh and Aaron Aedy, and bassist Steve Edmondson. Holmes and Mackintosh are the principal composers, with almost all of the band’s songs credited to them. During the years, the band has only changed drummers.

The tempos can vary quite dramatically on this record. Some changes feel very deliberate while others feel like they're just a product of the process and equipment used in the recording of the album.
Where possible I've tried to "smooth" out some of the more "tempo slip" type of changes. This does result in what look like some rather substantial jumps up and down. They're quite jarring in isolation but in the context of the mix, they're not overly perceptible.
Plenty of key changes and modal shifts in here too!
The tuning of this track is C# Standard (C#-F#-B-E). To make the tab easier to read it has been written out "as if" the bass were tuned to E Standard.
