Nick Holmes, singer of British band "Paradise Lost" mentions Morrissey and The Smiths in an interview with German daily newspaper "Kölnische / Bonner Rundschau"; I tried to translate the relevant part to English: "My fear is the biggest source of inspiration", singer Nick Holmes says. That aside, the sad melancholy of his musical role models, Morrissey and The Smiths, are other focal points of his band´s work. As proof of their affection, Paradise Lost covered the Smiths-classic from 1984, "How Soon Is Now?"
