Unplugged In Lisbon

Something a little different for you on this Monday.

Some time ago I came across this unique bootleg. It's probably from Moonspell's Sin/Pecado era, which saw the band wandering into more experimental directions and straying away from their gothic/metal roots. For a bootleg, this is pretty damn high quality and really showcases the versatility of this all too unappreciated band. This pseudo album has many classic Moonspell tracks, including one of their finest songs "The Hanged Man," all reworked into acoustic offerings. There's even a cover of Depeche Mode's "Sacred" for ya.

I've always felt that Moonspell has existed between two worlds, not "heavy" enough for scene purists (AKA Dicks) and just too much too handle for the more goth/rock friendly audiences (AKA Pussies).

...enjoy...
