This heaviness is often used to counteract their more calm side to mixed results. The band's usual talent for diversity is in great form and the hooks on "The Last Of Us" and "Medusalem" among others make this one of the year's more entertaining efforts. This slightly jazz inspired track could have been played a century ago at Grand Guignol and Moulin Rouge. This style works really well in the calmest and most relaxing tunes of the record featuring Middle Eastern folk elements. From the bleak and heavy verses with emotional growls and low tuned instruments over the hopefully uplifting and darkly romantic chorus that makes you want to make love to the emotionally charged bridge, every song writing idea in this track perfectly works in compact four and a half minutes.

In fact, if you like original rock music in general, do yourself a favor and buy moonsppell album now. Extinct clearly follows the lighter style of Omega White.

These songs prove that this record features Fernando Ribeiro's most diversified and technically skilled vocal performance ever, the best and strongest use of keyboards on any of the band's releases and also a versatile guitar play with harmonious acoustic guitar passages, appeasing and hypnotizing riffs and a few short but highly emotional solos.

The Portuguese gothic metal quintet already comes around with its eleventh full length release entitled Extinct. The Alpha Noir section remembers the band's earlier records between occult gothic metal with occasional black, death and even folk metal influences.

This song makes me dream of walking through desert sands on my own and being at peace with the whole world. But as I mentioned, some of these tracks completely fall short and sound like pieces of poop on a stick.

Production-wise, Jens Bogren did a fine job balancing all the instrumentation; bringing vocals, keys, and the orchestra forward and then back to get the most out of each. Let's keep it short: This is seen on 'Medusalem', a track that can be credited as having some great fast riffs, but not much more. Not to be confused with folk metallers Moonsorrow, Portuguese goth veterans Moonspell are now eleven albums into their career. Not to imply its small number of gags are inherently bad, per se, but there is a large gap of quality here that shows the band hitting all sorts of spectrums without being consistently decent or nut-crushingly atrocious.

But I guess you already know that Moonspell has changed a lot from that time anyway. However, if you are a Moonspell fan and you enjoy all their albums and their different styles all these years, you will definitely love "Extinct".

GuntherTheUndyingApril 7th, Moonspell's eleventh full-length album isn't on the classic level of Wolfheart or The Antidote but it may be their most successful integration yet.

Vampire the Fucking Masquerade, siphoned off into ballsy if obvious huge chord patterns that the Portuguese thankfully accent with tasteful melodic licks, total 80s Goth synthesizer lines which feel bright as streetlights as you're walking 13 city blocks to the closest trash dive bar that will play you Depeche Mode and David Bowie non-stop to the break of dawn.

If you like gothic rock and metal, this is your new bible. The song is calm, dreamy and numbing and gives Fernando Ribeiro the occasion to shine once more with his versatile vocals while guitars and rhythm section are more in the background. Like the poetry of a teenager who insists he is dark at heart, extincg harmless stuff. Now you might think that the extunct tracks aren't so great since I'm mentioning them last.

Extinct (album) - Wikipedia

It's annoyingly hard to escape the fact - especially when looking at that album cover - that Extinct is essentially a goth rock-driven album posing as a metal release. The dreamy and longing "Domina" can be described as a ballad where Fernando Ribeiro's clean vocals work best. The cover artwork was designed by Seth Siro Anton. A lot of metal fans were expecting this release, and after singles and samples, we can finally listen to the complete result.

Moonspell – Extinct Review

If gothic metal always sounded like this, I wouldn't listen to anything else. What a brilliant way to end a brilliant record. On the contrary, I like this and I believe that this is a great advantage in music, as it helps the artists and bands to etinct in time and not repeat themselves again and again. These two tracks have grown most on me as time went by. The surprises still don't moonspfll there as the band closes the record with the somewhat creepy vintage chanson "La Baphomette" which is entirely sung in French.

This slightly jazz inspired track could have been played a century ago at Grand Guignol and Moulin Rouge.
