04012014 - Cirith Ungol "Paradise Lost"

No idea why I haven't checked out Cirith Ungol's fourth and last album before now, but better late than never. "Paradise Lost" was released in 1991, and has apparently been unavailable in physical format for ages. This is of course not an issue in the days of streaming services and YouTube, so unless you absolutely need a hard copy it's easy to find this album. And from opening track "Join the Legion" this is pure hard rocking metal bliss. Fast ones, slow ones, light melodic stuff, slow brooding stuff... Hell, even a cover of Arthur Brown chestnut "Fire" that really works! Yup, it's all good. So guys - how about a reunion?
