Hopefully you’re a fan of Moonspell<\/a><\/strong>‘s 2021 album Hermitage, because a new record isn’t right around the corner. According to Moonspell<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> vocalist Fernando Ribeiro<\/strong> in an interview with Chaoszine<\/em>, the band plans on taking their time with new material in order to make the best possible end product.<\/p>\n “We love to do new music, but we have to wait because I don’t think we’re gonna have a new album before 2025 or ’26, even,” said Ribeiro<\/strong>. “It’s something that we are really talking within the band. I wrote a lot of lyrics, I had a lot of ideas. I threw them out, I picked them up, so it’s this kind of process. And why? Because it has to be a really fucking special album. It cannot be [done on] an automatic pilot. That’s not what you should do in the scene.<\/p>\n “In the scene you should go along the flow, like, ‘Let’s make a new album. Let’s get a new tour,’ and people will follow along. But I think this time around we’re gonna take our time. I think we bought our time, and it was very pricey. So, this time around, I think new music for Moonspell<\/a><\/strong> only late 2025 or 2026.”<\/p>\n Ribeiro<\/strong> also spoke a little about how new material may not be as important to fans as it is the band, and how Moonspell<\/a><\/strong> could easily just become a legacy act.<\/p>\n “When it comes to new music, first I have to answer myself the question, do people care about new music or it’s just the band that care? I don’t have an answer that allows me to make up my mind. Yeah, because now Moonspell<\/a><\/strong> is at this stage, we did a lot of music, we did a lot of different music, and we could live from our legacy from for the next years.<\/p>\n “We can do a Wolfheart<\/em> tour in 2025, we can do an Irreligious<\/em> tour in 2026 and so forth, we could do a Sin\/Pecado<\/em> tour in 2028 [all for their 30th<\/sup> anniversaries].”<\/p>\n \n
