"In Requiem" is Paradise Lost's eleventh studio album, again with Rhys Fulber on production duties. Seth Siro Anton is responsible for the artwork, which can be seen [http://www.paradiselost.co.uk/news/204 here] .

Nick Holmes has confirmed that 15 tracks have been recorded for the new album [http://www.paradiselost.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3221] , including one cover.

A press release states, "The melancholic atmosphere is as oppressive as ever, but this go round the gloom is fused with an equal amount of dense, punishing riffs" [http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=68738] .

The first single to be released from the album was " The Enemy" [http://www.paradiselost.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3259] .

The album was leaked onto the internet in its entirety on April 20, 2007.

The album is notable for featuring some harsher vocals by Nick Holmes, similar to the style he had on "Icon". It's often said that this album mixes Paradise Lost's still doom-death resembling style from "Icon" and their melodic gothic metal sound seen in "Draconian Times".

Trivia

The title for song "Praise Lamented Shade" comes after An Essay on Criticism by Alexander Pope [ [http://www.paradiselost.co.uk/articles/6 In Requiem - Track by Track - Paradise Lost Official Website ] ] .

The song "Sedative God" was originally intended for the previous Paradise Lost album, but was never recorded at that time. That's the reason why it sounds much different from the rest of the album. It's also the oldest song of the album because of this. [ [http://www.paradiselost.co.uk/articles/6 In Requiem - Track by Track - Paradise Lost Official Website ] ] .
