British gothic metal legends Paradise Lost will release Gothic Live At Roadburn 2016 digitally and exclusively via Bandcamp on 5 March 2021.
The now legendary festival based in Tilburg, Netherlands saw Paradise Lost play their 1991 album in full for the very first time alongside a lineup including Converge, Cult Of Luna and Neurosis in 2016.
Reflecting on the performance vocalist Nick Holmes comments: “I remember when we got asked to play Roadburn, I knew of the festival but I’d never actually been. The people that run it have an incredible knowledge and passion for music, so it was a great honour to be asked. We played the album ‘Gothic’ in full for the first time ever, perhaps slightly apprehensive how it would go down live as it’s not really a ‘festival’ set. However I was pleasantly surprised with the audience’s reaction and it was a really enjoyable experience.The back drop was an animation that had been hand drawn by Costin, and it really helped I think with the overall performance.’
Gothic Live At Roadburn 2016 is released 5 March 2021 as part of Bandcamp Friday, which sees them waive their revenue share to help support the many artists who have seen their livelihoods disrupted by the pandemic. The album download will also include access to the full stage animations that featured in the original Roadburn performance.
