Paradise Lost chronology
Draconian Times (1995) One Second (1997) Host (1999)

One Second is the sixth album release by Paradise Lost.

Following Draconian Times, the album reflected the group's first complete departure from doom metal, and death metal in favor of a more gothic rock direction.^{[citation needed]}

Despite the change in style, the album was highly regarded by most critics and gave the group significant exposure in North America.

It's Paradise Lost's first album recorded on digital format.^{[citation needed]}
