You know an album is good when you can experience a moment of ?wow" in almost every song. You know an album is great when you experience this even after multiple listens. Paradise Lost managed to craft such an album (once again) and named it The Plague Within. You all know this band, they play in the highest league of doom and gothic metal and the only question remaining from year to year is if they can take the cake in their genre. In fact, they're like one of those big football (European here) teams where it's only about which of the first few places they will be in by the end of the season.

Beneath Broken Earth is the best modern PL song.

One of their best songs imo

So seems like I'm not the only one that absolutely loves Beneath Broken Earth. The opening track, Beneath Broken Earth and Fear Of Silence are my favourites on this album.

Amazing album all around imo.

I used to think that I could never have a bad experience in a concert because the songs I enjoy would be performed in front of me... until I saw this band live. Not even alcohol was enough to tolerate the horrible performance, God I was pissed.

don't generalize, he is ONLY referring to one band, Paradise Lost. I haven't seen that many bands live, but the ones I did were fine and a couple great

Haha that's true, they're pretty bad live, especially Nick; but i'll still go to every of their concerts to show support.
On the other end of things is, for instance, Opeth, which puts out mediocre albums lately but it's guaranteed they'll be amazing live.
