The recording boasts a one of kind sound and visual sensation, with its heavy dose of cinematic flavor, unreal atmosphere and the encircling, resounding nature in its raw form.
Following the previously-released video for first single “Entitlement”, today, the dark metal masters have not only shared a breathtaking clip for the epic album title track, “Hermitage”, but also announced a Fullmoon Over The UK And Ireland tour, kicking off by the end of November! All upcoming live dates can be found below.
“To round up an awesome year we can finally announce our own headline tour in the UK (England, Scotland, Northern Ireland) and a much anticipated return to the beautiful Dublin!“, vocalist Fernando Ribeiro comments. “After warming up for the mighty Paradise Lost earlier this year, it’s our time to call the shots, come full circle and bring you more Moonspell, so we can celebrate our thirty years of dark music together in style! Don’t miss out and go get those tickets now! See you on stage, see you at the pub, the full-moon will shine bright over the UK”!
