Riotact: Tie your mother down actually :)

darthspudius: hey someone gets it! :P

darthspudius: Have you heard Paradise Lost's new album yet? I just got a promo copy for my website and it's pretty bleak. I loved it.

Melvinica: I only listened to two of the new songs and I can hardly wait for the album to be released.

darthspudius: Nah, Painkiller is and always will be a great record but it is pretty one track. No real variety. Compared to Defenders of Faith, British Steel, Hell Bent For Leather and Victim of Changes... it is too much of a good thing.

Of course ( and no offense) but younger fans I know tend to think it is the best one because it is super fast, lightning speed power metal stuff but that is a draw back in itself. The band have so many different qualities going on that limiting it to one album and specifically THAT style is just not healthy.

In terms of creativity itself, Nostradamus stomps all over it.

Alestorm are pretty good too. I like the music but the vocals grind a little.

NoNewTaleToTell: Nostradamus is seriously underrated! I can't for the life of me understand why nobody seemed to like it, other than the fact that it's not Painkiller V2.
