Oorspronkelijk zou My Dying Bride meekomen op deze co-headline tour en was ik zelf ook niet helemaal overtuigd om te gaan, maar toen ik zag dat deze band vervangen werd door mijn favoriete Finnen van Insomnium... tja... dan is de keuze snel gemaakt! Na hun show op Alcatraz was het voor mij maar al te duidelijk dat ik hen nóg eens live moet zien.
In order to celebrate their-nothing short of amazing-30 years career, crowned by the band’s latest and critically acclaimed studio album Hermitage live, together with their European wolfpack, the undisputed kings of the dark, Moonspell, have announced a series of tourdates for 2022, which will bring them to Trix, Antwerp on 1 October 2022. Moonspell will be teaming up with Insomnium, Borknagar, Wolfheart and Hinayana for en epic bill filled with darkness.

Insomnium heeft op onze website misschien niet veel introductie meer nodig, maar deze band brengt melodic deathmetal als geen andere. Met nummers die barsten van emotie, verwerkt in zowel stevige als zachte grunts, clean vocals, poëtische teksten, prachtige melodieën en stevige riffs weten ze indruk te maken op zowat iedereen die hun shows aanschouwt.
Progressive Black Metallers Borknagar are no strangers to the scene either. Founded in 1995 and featuring members of acts such as Enslaved, Immortal, Gorgoroth and Ulver, there’s hardly any other formation that developed classic Black Metal with as much musical versatility as these Norwegians!
And although the Finns of Wolfheart have only been active since 2013, they have left a big stamp with their heavy, melodic doom metal sound. Their last album "Wolfes Of Karelia" even made it to number #8 in the official album charts. Up&coming melodic death metal outfit, Hinayana, rounds up this eclectic tour package: The Texas- based band made their debut in 2018 but with their latest record, "Death Of The Cosmic", they stepped out as one of the US best kept metal secrets!
Says Moonspell frontman Fernando Ribeiro about the upcoming tour: “Musically speaking, this might be the best tour Moonspell has ever joined. Borkanagar’s last album (Pure North) is a masterpiece and of course that Wolfheart has a special place in our “heart” for reasons that are obvious. We will be celebrating our 30 years together as a band in amazing company and if you’re into bands that “do it for the music” this is a one of a kind experience that no true fan can afford to miss. We will be revisiting our career and play classics, new songs and hidden gems alike, so the hype is real, brace yourself for an extraordinary voyage in the amazing company of these bands, probably the best and most heartfelt tour of 2022.”
