Elvira introduces six programmes celebrating the rock phenomenon of deathless appeal - heavy metal.

Kaamos is a five-part documentary series from the eras of Finnish metal music from the 1970s to the 2020s. Interviews with dozens of artists, bands and the main influencers of the heavy metal tribe open up the most significant milestones in metal music, behind-the-scenes events, wave bottoms and success stories for the first time to the general public.

In a career that has spanned 20 years (and counting), Paradise Lost have sold a staggering two million albums worldwide. Their constant reinvention and brazen attitude to musical experimentation has always allowed them to maintain a constant relevance despite the myriad fads and short-lived scenes that have emerged over the last two decades. Indeed few bands that prove so very influential in their infancy maintain the quality of output that Paradise Lost have. They formed the basis of an entirely new genre, gothic metal. Even now, fifteen years later, the influence of Paradise Lost is clearly visible on most Gothic and Heavy Metal bands. Since then the band - named after John Milton's epic 1667 poem - have released a number of musical highlights and genre merging masterpieces.
