It's been three years since British metal veterans Paradise Lost released its most recent album Obsidian, but frontman Nick Holmes confirmed in a recent interview with Portugal's Metal Global that the band has been making progress on new material for their next album for a tentative 2024 or 2025 release.

Holmes said: "We started working on some songs. Then we started the summer festival season, and it just got kind of lost in the festivals. It's nice to allocate a period of downtime when you can write because it's hard to keep your head on one thing when you keep having to pack a bag and then get on an airplane and go and do a gig and you've gotta rehearse for the shows. It's just nice to scratch some time for that. So hopefully at the beginning of next year, we can have a few months downtime so we can actually get working more on the album. But we've got a few songs done. I think we've got a few songs done; we need to review them. So, yeah, we'll hopefully write an album next year, anyway. Whether it's gonna be recorded [next year], I don't know, but hopefully at least written."
