PARADISE LOST announce the return of drummer Jeff Singer

On May 29th, UK Gothic Metal pioneers, PARADISE LOST, announced they were parting ways with drummer Guido Zima. The band broke the news with the following statement:

“We’ve made the difficult creative decision to part ways with our drummer, Guido Zima. We thank Guido for his contributions to the band and wish him all the best in his future endeavors. We appreciate your continued support and understanding, and we’re looking forward to the next chapter with the band.”

Now, PARADISE LOST has shared the news that former drummer Jeff Singer (who was with the band from 2004 to 2008, and appeared on the “Paradise Lost” and “In Requiem” albums), will once again sit behind the kit, simply stating: “And The Planets Aligned.” Singer has since issued the following statement:

“When I got a call asking if I would drum for PARADISE LOST again it was clear the time was right and we could actually make this happen. Nothing could make me prouder. Firstly, the band, management and fans have always made me feel part of the family and secondly as a fan of the band it is a dream and something I have thought about a lot over the years. PARADISE LOST are in my blood. I can’t wait and am so excited to get out there with the lads playing the songs I love and meeting our amazing loyal fans again.”
