Most people will know Medusa as the Gorgon from Greek mythology; she is the infamous beast with venomous snakes for hair who will turn anyone that dares to look into her eyes to stone. It is this hideous creature who Paradise Lost have chosen to be the figureheard for their 15th studio album as, from a philosophical perspective, she is more than simply a monster.Medusa is Paradise Lost’s heaviest full length release of the past 15 years, melding crushing doom metal with Nick’s harsh death growls and raw organic sounds, heralding a new era of pure Northern misery. Recorded at Orgone Studios in the misty countryside of Woburn with producer Jaime Gomez Arellano (Ghost, Ulver, Cathedral), a truly brutal beast of an album has been born.
