The new Moonspell album Extinct due for release, via Napalm Records, on March 2015 is all but a musical and emotional manifesto.
It puts the D of Darkness back into Dark Metal. It's a true lesson for the new generations of Goth Metal about how it's played and felt with body and soul; a lesson taught by no others than our Portuguese gentlemen wolves: Moonspell, one of the very few pioneers of the style still around, contemporary to the greats, and for more than 20 years, signing their souls away to the lunar side, when they go deep into writing an album.
Extinct will be exemplary and it will leave a profound mark on the scene and on the fans, once it sees the light of day in March 2015. It was produced by Jens Bogren (Katatonia, Amon Amarth, Opeth and Paradise Lost) in Sweden's renowned Fascination Street studio and here are the titles of the tracks you will find on the new Moonspell record:
UNTIL WE ARE NO MORE (BREATHE)
MEDUSALEM
FUNERAL BLOOM
DOMINA
LA BAPHOMETTE
THE LAST OF US
A DYING BREED
MALIGNIA
EXTINCT
THE FUTURE IS DARK
It will be available on Mediabook, Jewelcase, Special limited deluxe edition and LP (vinyl). More news available as we go. Stay tuned under the spell and don't forget to book a ticket from their forthcoming European headliner tour (Road to Extinction) with special guests SEPTIC FLESH.
