2002 studio album by Paradise Lost
Symbol of Life is the ninth studio album by British metal band Paradise Lost . It marks a departure by the band from their synth -based approach and returning to a much heavier sound, although not abandoning the keyboards altogether. This album was the final release featuring drummer Lee Morris .
Two songs which were written and left out for this album are "I Can Hate You" and "Deus". Neither have been released on any of the reissues of this album, but can be found on the digipak version of the single "Erased"; the aforementioned single has a music video.
