Moonspell's upcoming album 1755 is the musical chronicling of the 1755 earthquake that struck Lisbon, Portugal. The earthquake registered somewhere between an 8.5 and 9 on the Richter Scale and killed between 10,000 and 100,000 people.
Moonspell's album will be sung entirely in Portuguese, and we're premiering one of its several epic chapters today. Here's what frontman Fernando Ribeiro has to say about the new song "Evento" and its significance within the story.
“Bury the dead. Take care of the living" is one of the most famous quote of Marquis of Pombal (Sebastião José Carvalho e Melo), the minister of the King who together with the crowds of Lisbon and his engineers rebuilt a new Lisbon from the ashes and ruins of the old in just one year time. Event talks about fate, a dialogue built between the narration of the day and the state of mind of Lisbon's inhabitants and the all powerful choir telling me to be still and accept God’s will. This conflict and the desacralisation of Lisbon is one of the most interesting aspects of this accursed day. A fight that allowed Portugal to step out finally from the Middle Ages and make the country’s entry into Enlightenment.”
