Paradise Lost Find New Drummer

Paradise Lost Find New Drummer 2009-03-16 by fireaboveicebelow \| 15 Comments
Blabbermouth.net writes: British gothic metal act Paradise Lost have confirmed that Adrian Erlandsson (Cradle Of Filth, The Haunted, At The Gates) will be their new full-time drummer! Guitarist Greg Mackintosh commented: “Adrian has been a friend and acquaintance for some time. After calling me to see if the drumming position was still vacant, we quickly arranged for an audition right before entering the studio to record our new album. We knew immediately that he was the man for the job. Playing the songs with him felt very natural. He is the same age as us and from a similar musical background. Unfortunately it was too short notice to play on the new album but everything we do from now on will have Adrian involved. We look forward to rehearsing with him when we leave the studio and to doing our first show with him in Norway on April 10th (Inferno Festival).” Adrian Erlandsson added: “Paradise Lost has been one of my favourite bands since I first heard them in 1990. When my fellow Brujeria member Jeff Walker told me that PL were looking for a drummer I got in contact with Greg straight away. After a few chats and emails I was on my way to the audition. I had learnt 10 songs out of their last setlist, but after playing only 4 songs Nick said “The job is yours if you want it”. Great success!! I look forward to growing even older with the lads and rocking hard with them live!!!!”

Willie Moderator March 16th 2009 20212 Comments	British gothic metal act PARADISE LOST have confirmed that Adrian Erlandsson (Cradle Of Filth, The Haunted, At The Gates) will be their new full-time drummer! Noooooooooooooooo! The guy made CoF songs boring! Do you understand we're talking about CoF! The albums he was on sucked already (ok not Midian) and he somehow made them worse. Now he's with a band that I really like and I can't see any good coming from this...

Metalstyles March 16th 2009 8576 Comments	since I don't really listen to CoF and ATG then i'm not too familiar with him, but if you say that he is a proffesional at making things bad and he's now in Paradise Lost then noooooo!!!!!!!

Hawks March 16th 2009 87674 Comments	I really don't think Adrian is that bad, but he's definitely nothing great. Haven't heard much Paradise Lost, but I'm sure he won't make them any better or worse.

Willie Moderator March 16th 2009 20212 Comments	Paradise Lost don't play fast music like CoF. So you have to think about the slower sections of any CoF song and remember how shit he was during those times and then realize that's all he'll be playing now.

Metalstyles March 16th 2009 8576 Comments	Paradise Lost is really good, can't say that for CoF though and apparently, as Willie said, he managed to make CoF worse. Now that is sadThis Message Edited On 03.16.09

Willie Moderator March 17th 2009 20212 Comments	I over-analyze music and musician changes when it comes to my favorite bands. This doesn't look good.

thebhoy March 17th 2009 4460 Comments	thought it might've been Beelzebub or Mammon to be honest.

Willie Moderator March 17th 2009 20212 Comments	What the hell does that even mean?

BornDeadBuriedAlive March 17th 2009 427 Comments	You forget this guy was in At The Gates.

Willie Moderator March 17th 2009 20212 Comments	I don't remember him being all that good with them either. He was more interesting, but even then it was mostly repetitive pounding without any variation. This Message Edited On 03.17.09

thebhoy March 17th 2009 4460 Comments	Willie, it was a really nerdy english joke, reffering to the actual Paradise Lost, as in the epic poem by John Milton. It was pretty bad if you ask me. The joke, not the poem.This Message Edited On 03.17.09

BillEco March 17th 2009 67 Comments	Cmon guys he isn't that bad... (Coming from AtG fanboy)

Willie Moderator March 17th 2009 20212 Comments	@thebhoy: Oh, ok that makes sense now. I've obviously never read that.
