Format:Audio CD
A Very Fine album,because the songs are typical Paradise Lost.Dont expect doom-metal,dont expect another "Host"!.Expect something different.Musicaly this album is very simple,but yet powerfull and melancholic.Songs about despair,rage,anger,depression.If you dont like nu-metal,this is the alternative.Very powerfull songs on this album are "mouth","control","sell it to the world","look at me now" and at times "Something real".Actually no matter what the critics say,this album rocks!.MOre melancholy songs are "Illumination","World pretending","Divided".
When you liked "One second" and also "Host" you will like this one.On the other hand if you are a DIE_HARD-doom fan,STAY AWAY FROM IT!!!The bad critics are only of those who liked Paradise Lost from 1990 tot 1995.
This is only my opinion about it,but i guess that people who liked Paradise Lost also after "Once secnd" will agree with me.
Also check the singles from the album.Masterpieces like "Gone" and "Waiting for God".To good for not to hear!

I first purchased this album in 2001, but because I scrapped my car with Believe In Nothing still in the stereo I am purchasing a copy again...When I first heard the album I was expecting a full on synth album again and another Host - which incidentally alienated diehard PL fans when it was released - But this isn't the case and on this album PL bring back the heavier guitars with less emphasis on electronics. The album has some excellent tracks, but these are few and far between the standouts being "Look At Me Now", "Illumination" and "Never Again". For me Believe In Nothing is a good album but doesn't come anywhere near to being a masterpiece.

"Believe in Nothing" is a fine album of dark, heavy songs by a great band.
However, I believe this to be the least popular of all PL albums to date, and sometimes I reckon it's purely to do with the band's curious choice of album cover!
Gregor wanted to create a "live-sounding" album here, and it definately shows. Songs like "Mouth" and "Fader" are among PL's most listenable songs, that is, to an audience wider than their fanbase. My favourite song here is "Never Again". It's atmospheric and dark yet is has a warm glow to it. Other great songs here are "Divided", well orchestrated and executed, and closer "World Pretending". This is a very downbeat, slow song with excellent vocals from Nick Holmes.
One flaw here, I would say, is that on occasion it feels as if some of the songs don't belong together. E.g: I feel songs like "Mouth", Look at me now" and "No Reason" are so different from "Never Again" and "Control" to the extent that is seems odd that they'd be on the same album.
This minor detail aside, "Believe in Nothing" is difficult to fault.
Excellent.

Dull
They were so original and are now dull.
Each song seems to have a chorus which is sung again and again and again with each chorus being dull. Read more

disappointing, unremarkable.
Unlike many I like both stages of the Paradise Lost sound, and was impressed by "host" and "one second", but "believe in nothing" just seems slow and... Read more

Beleive It's Disappointing
I have listened to everything from PL so far, but in my opinion this one isn't as good as previous albums like 'One Second' , 'Draconian Times' or even 'Icon'. Read more

Finally PL in a good production sound
Short and sweet: The songs are as good or better than Host and One Second, but the sound is definitely far superior to any past PL recordings. Read more

A grower rather than an instant hit, but worth the listen
A damn fine album from a dependable band who have found a sound they finally seem comfortable with. Far removed from the (rather dull) growl ridden doom metal of Icon and Gothic. Read more

Host 2? Well almost.
Paradise Lost have evolved into what is their own unique sound and good for them, They obviously like what they are doing. Read more

Host with guitars
I should probably review this cd after a few weeks of listening as I had done with Host after deciding that it is a fine album. Read more

Back to the roots?
This CD is propably one of the best releases in the early 2001. In the 90s Paradise Lost created a new sound and make goth-synthie-metal-pop listenable for the masses. Read more
