MOONSPELL - Original Album Collection 3CD Cardsleeve

The Portuguese quintet established itself as one of the favourites of the then-flourishing gothic metal scene in the mid 90s. Wolfheart (1995) and its successor Irreligious (1996) allowed them to crest the throne of dark passion through their combination of a stylish presentation, shadowy lyrics and a unique musical approach. Instead of taking the safe path to success, MOONSPELL's restless creativity lead to a phase of searching. You can call Sin/Pecado (1998) almost strangely subdued and dark, whereas The Butterfly Effect (1999) attracted attention with its brutal electronic experiments. Within two years the band had changed dramatically. This turned around with the release of Darkness And Hope (2001): At first sight the album seemed like a step back to their gothic metal roots, but it really turned out to be the next step in their development. All three albums collected here for the first time.
