Portuguese gothic metal icons Moonspell, who recently had to cancel their North American Majestic In Death II tour, are taking Far From God (released in July on Napalm Records) on the road in spring 2027 for their most ambitious headline tour to date — and a celebration of 35 years of darkness.
Following the release of their critically acclaimed and fan‑praised record, the band will bring the God Is A Vampire Tour to fans across Europe. From Germany, France, Spain and the UK through Scandinavia and Eastern Europe, the route reaches Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Greece, Serbia and Croatia before returning through Central Europe — a tour that goes beyond the usual stops, bringing the pack together across the continent.
An exclusive scenic production, powerful lighting, immersive video and commanding sound will bring the dark atmosphere of Far From God to life. Celebrating both a new chapter and their 35th anniversary, Moonspell are preparing a show worthy of the occasion.
Two handpicked special guests complete the line‑up: Iotunn, the rising progressive metal force from Denmark and the Faroe Islands, and TodoMal, Spain's extraordinary atmospheric‑doom project. Kicking off in March 2027, the God Is A Vampire Tour unites three distinct visions of heavy music for an unmissable journey across Europe (see tour dates below).
Moonspell vocalist Fernando Ribeiro reveals: "Far From God has been seen, felt and welcomed by both fans and band with an almost messianic fervour. Not that the band was facing its end, but doubt and a sense of impending doom hung over us. This album showed us wolves — and our pack — the way forward. Now we embark on our most ambitious headline tour ever. We're bringing a new stage design, lights, sound and video production - and a hunger to make every night count. Joining us are two bands we handpicked: Iotunn (Denmark/Faroe Islands) and TodoMal (Spain). Together, we'll unleash the dark, melodic, light-seeking energy that runs through all our music. Every night, a gathering of the pack. Every night, a chance to create something worth carrying home. And what is success for Moonspell? New memories. Full hearts. True wonder. That's what we promise. And, as you know, we will deliver. See you on tour, far from God but close to you".
