Впечатления от “Medusa” противоречивые. Альбом необходимый и полезный с точки зрения затянувшегося процесса, конечной станцией которого он стал. Не знаю насчёт закрытого гештальта, но в том, что определённый груз с плеч был сброшен, я почти уверен. Свободно дышащий в стилевом плане “Obsidian” это косвенно подтверждает. С другой стороны, явственно ощущается, что англичане растеряли запал и мотивацию, пока шли к “Медузе”. Что неудивительно, уже на “Faith Divides Us…” был продемонстрировано более чем уверенное возвращение к звучанию первой половины 90-х, последующими двумя альбомами Paradise Lost просто интенсивно поддерживали заданную температуру.
