Portuguese metallers
MOONSPELL have posted two brand new songs from their
"Night Eternal" album —
"Scorpion Flower" and the title track — on their
MySpace page. The follow-up to 2006's
"Memorial" was recorded at
Antfarm studios in Denmark with producer
Tue Madsen (
THE HAUNTED,
DARK TRANQUILLITY,
HALFORD). A late spring/early summer release via
SPV is expected. Other tracks set to appear on the CD include
"Shadow Sun",
"At Tragic Heights",
"Spring of Rage" and
"Hers is the Twilight".
Vasilis Mazaris and
Hellena Mihailidou of
Metalzone.gr conducted an interview with
MOONSPELL frontman
Fernando Ribeiro on February 26, 2008 in Athens, Greece.

MOONSPELL's last release was the
"Under SatanÆ" CD, which consisted of re-recordings of the band's legendary EP
"Under the Moonspell" (1994) as well as their first demo
"Anno SatanÆ" and their sole track as
MORBID GOD,
"Serpent Angel". All songs were re-arranged and revamped in order to "underline their revered distinction as underground classics but now with a mature dark energy and class," according to a press release. The CD was recorded at
Antfarm with
Tue Madsen and charted in the band's home country, where the group played the album in its entirety at a one-off show at the Lisbon Coliseum in front of 3,500 fans.
