The Resume

    Formed in Portugal
    Fernando Ribeiro - Vocals
    Ricardo Amorim - Guitar
    Sérgio Crestana - Bass
    Mike Gaspar - Drums
    Pedro Paixão - Keyboards/Programming
    Released 'Serpent Angel' (1992 EP), 'Anno Satanae' (1993 EP), 'Under the Moonspell EP' (1994), 'Wolfheart' (1995), 'Irreligious' (1996), 'Sin/Pecado' (1997), 'The Butterfly Effect' (1999), 'Darkness and Hope' (2001), 'The Antidote' (2003) and 'Everything Invaded' (2003)

Why they might be annoying:

    Their music is very dreary.
    Some of their keyboard passages can seem rather dramatic and over-the-top.
    Their lyrics are a bit morbid.
    Their debut EP, released in 1994, was very poorly distributed.
    Fernando's vocals can, at times, be hard to decipher.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Fernando has a deep, throaty singing voice, much like Peter Steele of Type O Negative (the two are compared, incidentally).
    Moonspell toured with Type O Negative and Cradle of Filth in 2003.
    Their music is actually quite enjoyable, if it's your thing.
    They are one of the most popular goth metal bands.
    They are a rare metal band from Portugal.
    Their 2001 release 'Darkness and Hope' includes a cover of Ozzy Osbourne's 'Mr. Crowley.'
