Review by Jessica Gibson

All You Leave Behind by Paradise Lost: A Goth Rock Gem That Sticks Like Glitter on Your Soul Alright, buckle up, because we’re diving into All You Leave Behind, the 2005 goth rock masterpiece from Paradise Lost. This album is like that moody friend who always wears black but somehow still pulls off looking cool as hell. Hailing from Europe and released under GUN and BMG, it’s got enough gloom to fill a crypt but also hooks sharp enough to keep you coming back for more. Let’s talk tracks, shall we? The opener, “Grey,” hits you with all the subtlety of a thunderstorm at midnight. It’s brooding, atmospheric, and Nick Holmes’ lyrics are dripping with existential dread—you know, the kind of stuff that makes you want to stare out a rain-streaked window while sipping whiskey. What sticks with me about this track isn’t just its haunting melody (props to Greg Mackintosh and Rhys Fulber for cooking up something so darkly delicious), but how it feels like an emotional gut punch wrapped in velvet. By the time those keyboards kick in, you’re already knee-deep in melancholy, and honestly? You don’t mind one bit. Then there’s the title track, “All You Leave Behind.” If “Grey” is the storm, this one’s the eerie calm afterward. It’s slower, heavier, and packed with layers of sound that feel like they’re creeping up your spine. Holmes’ vocals here are raw and unfiltered—like he’s whispering secrets meant only for you. There’s something hypnotic about the way the music swells and recedes, pulling you deeper into its shadowy world. Pro tip: listen to this one late at night when everyone else is asleep. Trust me; it’ll mess with your head in the best possible way. The production deserves a shout-out too. Rhys Fulber didn’t just produce this thing—he practically birthed it. With Greg Reely handling recording, mixing, and mastering, the sound is polished yet retains that gritty edge that makes goth rock what it is. Oh, and let’s not forget Seth Siro Anton’s artwork, which perfectly captures the vibe: dark, mysterious, and slightly unsettling. Like staring at a painting that might be watching you back. So why does this album stick with me? Maybe it’s the way it balances beauty and despair, or maybe it’s because it reminds me of my own questionable life choices (kidding… kinda). But mostly, it’s because All You Leave Behind doesn’t try too hard. It knows exactly what it is—a moody, introspective journey through heartache and longing—and owns it completely. Final thought? Listening to this album feels like having a heart-to-heart with someone who gets it. Someone who understands that sometimes, being sad can feel strangely satisfying. Or maybe I’m just overthinking it. Either way, if you’re into goth rock, do yourself a favor and give this one a spin. Just don’t blame me if you start wearing eyeliner afterward. Rating: 8.5/10 – Not perfect, but damn close.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a cool fact: The album *All You Leave Behind* by Paradise Lost, released in 2005, showcases the band's signature goth rock sound but with a twist. It features Rhys Fulber, who not only contributed on keyboards but also took on the role of producer. Interestingly, Fulber’s influence helped shape the album’s atmospheric vibe, blending haunting melodies with heavy rock elements. And fun detail—Greg Reely handled recording, mixing, and mastering, giving the album a cohesive sonic identity. Definitely a team effort!

That was a slight exaggeration lol, I'm just sick of where the country is heading. I love our heritage and history etc. I just hate the americanisation of our country and the fat cats that run it lol
