Fresh off the release of their critically acclaimed new album, Far From God, Portuguese gothic metal icons Moonspellhave announced a major North American tour this autumn as special guests of extreme metal legends Cradle of Filth. The tour will also feature Worm Gloom and Black Satellite.

Alongside songs from Far From God, Moonspell’s set will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their landmark album Irreligious, while also revisiting fan favorites from across their three-decade career.

Commenting on the tour, frontman Fernando Ribeiro said:

“Moonspell and Cradle of Filth, came a long way… We first played together in 1994 and since then we’ve sharing stages all around the globe. It’s also our return to the North America and we sure want to make it count! Cradle is on a creative and touring roll so we’ll try to get ourselves some of their charm and deliver you amazing nights to the sound of our very own Portugal brand of Gothic Metal. We’ll be promoting our new album Far from God, the 30th anniversary or Irreligious and will go deep into our history and legacy. See you under the spell!“

The extensive U.S. and Canadian tour marks Moonspell’s long-awaited return to North America and promises a celebration of both the band’s newest material and their enduring legacy in gothic metal.
