Into Paradise

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Into Paradise were a group from Dublin, Ireland whose influences included Joy Division and Echo and the Bunnymen. They formed in 1986 as 'Backwards into Paradise', and released their debut EP 'Blue Light' in 1989 on the independent label Setanta. Soon after came the EP 'Change' and the band's first full-length album, 'Under the Water'. During this period they became notorious for gigs which often ended with fighting between bandmembers. Their most successful album and major label debut was the Adrian Borland produced 'Churchtown'.
