Paradise Lost have released a lyric video for their 1999 track So Much Is Lost.

The song opens their seventh album Host, which will be reissued on March 16 via Nuclear Blast Records.

Paradise Lost frontman Nick Holmes says: “It was interesting to revisit this stage of the band’s history. It’s certainly not metal thrashing mad, but I’ve always regarded some of our strongest material was written around this period, and I still regard So Much Is Lost as a really strong song.”

Host was remaster by Jaime Gomez Arellano, who adds: “Host is a fantastic album with a stellar production.

“When I had the opportunity to remaster it, I focused on warming it up through analogue tape and giving it more of that analogue vibe since a lot of records from that period were a bit thin sounding in comparison to today‘s standards.

“The remaster resulted in more depth and bass frequencies and generally a warmer and fuller sound. I hope the fans enjoy it.”

Host will be released on CD and double vinyl and is now available for pre-order.

Paradise Lost are currently on tour across the UK and Europe in support of their latest album Medusa.
