Veteran Portuguese goth metal outfit Moonspell will launch their 10th album in March, they’ve confirmed.
Extinct will be released via Napalm Records and it will be the follow-up to 2012’s Alpha Noir/Omega White. To mark the announcement, they’ve released a stream of latest track The Last Of Us. Hear it below.
The record will be launched as a two-disc edition containing the full album along with bonus tracks and a behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the album titled Road To Extinction. It will also be issued as a mediabook, limited deluxe edition and on vinyl.
A statement about Extinct reads: “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.”
They’ll take to the road for a 23-date European tour starting in March to support the album and have lined up one UK date at London’s Underworld on April 2.
