Gothic/doom metal legends Paradise Lost have unveiled their third video single, "Tyrants Serenade", from their impending Ascension album, due on 19 September through Nuclear Blast Records.
Giving context to the four+ minute goth metal opus of epic proportions and bleak new staple in the band's celebrated catalogue, vocalist Nick Holmes says: "Observing the death of an individual, and subsequently, how the transition of seasons evokes fond memories. The God of Malevolence serves as an internal voice to dismantle those cherished memories and reintroduces the initial anguish of loss".
On one of its boldest singles to date, Paradise Lost melds crunchy riffs and soaring guitar melodies with juxtaposing anthemic clean and harsh vocals. The memorable new track is accompanied by a stunning video directed by longtime collaborator Ash Pears (Host, Bloodbath, Katatonia).
In celebration of the new album, Paradise Lost has also announced a handful of intimate signing sessions and a record release show in Leeds, UK:
20 September - Sheffield, UK @ Bear Tree (4 p.m. BST) - Signing Session
21 September - Birmingham, UK @ HMV (2 p.m. BST) - Signing Session
