Moonspell announce “From Down Below – Live 80 Meters Deep” release for September and drop new music video

Portuguese dark metal masters Moonspell have announced a BluRay/DVD and album release for September 23, 2022: their latest studio album, “Hermitage” (2021), in its live form “From Down Below – Live 80 Meters Deep” via Napalm Records.

Recorded live at Grutas de Mira D’Aire, one of Portugal’s seven natural wonders, “From Down Below – Live 80 Meters Deep” boasts a one of a kind sound and visual sensation, with its heavy dose of cinematic flavour, unreal atmosphere and the encircling, resounding nature in its raw form. Tracks such as “Entitlement”, “Hermitage” and “Apoptheghmata” perfectly settle in with the album‘s unique environment.

“From Down Below – Live 80 Meters Deep” is not only an epic live momentum of “Hermitage” – one of the deepest, heaviest and most sincerely heart-breaking records the band has ever written – but a truly revolutionary experience, as Moonspell brought along a select number of fans and a production team (literally) underground. Directed by Guilherme Henrique, “From Down Below – Live 80 Meters Deep” is something truly special that you have never, ever seen or heard before. 

Frontman Fernando Ribeiro says about the release:

“While the world agonized at home, we went deep down below to a cave to record a DVD with some of our bravest fans watching it. ‘Entitlement’ is the first advance of an unreal show, a performance like you’ve never watched, in the peace and quiet of a wet and dark natural gallery. From deep down below, our new live album and DVD is something never tried before and we hope it darkly entertains you until our next album comes in 2023.”
