On April 12th 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 set-list 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 track list 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: "Perhaps it's simply due to the greatest hits nature of the show, but the band's output is given a continuity tonight somehow missing on previous occasions. To some extent, it's as though Paradise Lost have come full circle, now visibly comfortable with their various incarnations…" (Terrorizer, June 2007).
