MOONSPELL

Release Year: 2020
Artist Origin: POR
Style: dark experimental gothic atmospheric metal

recorded at London's Trident Studios in June of 1999, the fourth longplay album by always inventive masters of shadows is quite a departure even from their previous output, turning into the most daring experiment they have ever tried, composed primarily by keyboardist Pedro Paixão: lots of ambient/electronic breaks and ghostly gothic/industrial episodes are juxtaposed to heavier metal foundation with a bunch of trademark melodies and charismatic singing of Fernando, who firmly confirms his frontman charisma, so at the end of the day it remains a complex and adventurous yet also cohesive and dynamic album no one is advised to miss!; recent Austrian digipak edition comes with completely new design and 24 page booklet
