1755 marks the year of the horror when a giant earthquake destroyed Lisbon. 2017 will mark the year of MOONSPELL‘s new magnum opus titled “1755“, the 13rd studio record by the portuguese Dark Metal pioneers, which will see the light of day on November 3rd via Napalm Records.
It’s the musical version of the year when the earthquake wrecked the band’s hometown, a dark adventure into medieval landscapes: Breathtaking and completely earthshaking!
Naturally this album comes and is sung in Portuguese and will outclass all standards you have ever heard from MOONSPELL before.
Just recently MOONSPELL have unveiled a first snippet of their song “Todos Os Santos” ( engl: ‘All Saints’ ), now the band unleashes the official music video and full track:
“Even tough this all happened in 1755, there are still a lot of world and country leaders that think themselves as saints, with a sacred mission, chosen by any God. What really happens is that they save no one but themselves and this video showcases the message of the song: as in 2017 or 1755 all saints will not be enough to save us.” – comments vocalist Fernando Ribeiro.
Check out the lyrics video for the song “Todos Os Santos” below.
