I guess if you are here to check out this re-release you already know that alongside Icon, Draconian Times is Paradise lost's greatest work. The repackaging: The original package to this cd was awful. A black, pseudo-felt lined box with flimsy card cd case. The saving grace was the beautiful artwork contained within. Here on the Legacy Edition you get the most beautiful hard cover 'book type' case with all the elegant artwork contained throughout. Alongside the original artwork are the lyrics and brief notes from the band members, as they share their thoughts, experiences and memories from the classic paradise lost period. This cd packaging is the most beautifully designed and produced that I own in my collection, which is good going because I have a fairly extensive collection. The main reason for purchasing this remastered and repackaged edition was solely to buy the 5.1 mix, as I love my dvd-a and 5.1 surround mixes. The low-down is this: This 5.1 disc may not have the resolution of a dvd-a (btw, I don't care about the specifics of 96/24 vs dts or dolby digital, or whatever) all I want to say is that this disc is mind-blowing. The sound quality of this surround is absolutely awesome. The production and mastering for this special version are absolutely first-class. Each track seems to sound brand new and fresh once again, almost like you're hearing it for the first time. Every track I pick out things I don't recall hearing before, new drum beats, new guitar notes, new bass lines. It sounds sublime. The front central speaker is reserved solely for Nick Holmes voice and he just gives one of my favourite vocal performances ever. It really does send a shiver down the spine. This is what music is all about IMO, tapping into the raw emotions that make us love this kind of music; and with such an unbelievable sounding remaster it can't possibly fail to give this experience to everyone that bought and loved this disc 16 years ago! Enjoy! Please give us Icon in 5.1 next. Review: Brilliant album that every metal fan should own. - While they may not have achieved the level of success that their talents deserve, Halifax's Paradise Lost have a superb discography that VERY few bands of any genre can match, and this gothic metal masterpiece (released in 1995) is undeniably one of their very best. Similar in sound and style to it's awesome predecessor 'Icon', 'Draconian Times' is another collection of dark and brooding, but hauntingly beautiful and atmospheric songs. Highlights include 'Enchantment', 'The Last Time', 'Once Solemn' and 'Shadowkings', but the album is flawless from beginning to end and stands tall as one of the finest examples of it's kind. Even some of my trendy-rock friends have been blown away by it's trademark mix of melody, harmony and aggression. It's frankly scandalous that bands inspired by Paradise Lost (including Cradle Of Filth and Nightwish) have gone on to become highly successful, while Nick Holmes crew continue to struggle for recognition. 'Draconian Times' would ultimately fail to catapult the band into the big time (which it should have done), but it remains an absolutely essential album that ALL fans of quality metal should have in their collection. Highly recommended. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000FGGESQ | | Best Sellers Rank | 37,318 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) 66 in Gothic Metal 98 in Doom Metal 2,438 in Heavy Metal | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (358) | | Label | Sony Music Cmg | | Manufacturer | Sony Music Cmg | | Manufacturer reference | 43168-51440 | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 1995 | | Product Dimensions | 13.79 x 0.99 x 12.4 cm; 104.33 g | ## Images ![Draconian Times - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JbjOJxuOL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is how re-releases should all be done! *by D***X on 19 April 2011* Ok, firstly I'm not going to give you all a low-down on the tracks or the album.
