Two of the biggest Metal forces in Dubai, JoScene & Metal East Records, are working together for the first Dubai Metal Festival on November 25 and 26. The Festival will be headlined by the world famed Moonspell and Lacuna Coil.
The Metal Sister blog had the chance to talk with Moonspell's Fernando Ribeiro.
Starting with the band's background about the Metal scene in the Middle East and the active bands in the region, Ribeiro said: "I am very proud of any Metal band getting together and fighting for their music and their right to make it.
He added: "I've been in touch with some bands from the Middle East like New Carnis, Scarab, Kimaera, and others.
"I am very curious to watch some of the bands sharing the stage with us."
The second question was about the band's impression to play in Dubai, Moonspell Vocalist highlighted: "We’ve been trying for many years to play Dubai and it will finally happen so I am quite happy about it. I know, Dubai is a hub where many people will come to watch us from several countries around, and it’s a one-time opportunity to entertain these people and show them a good time."
About concerning this performance as part of the band's 30-year career, Ribeiro said: "That’s our mission on Earth and yes, we will bring our Moonspell 30 years legacy to Dubai!"
Talking about headlining the festival with Lacuna Coil, Moonspell's frontman said: "We just know Lacuna Coil, to be honest, but look so forward to sharing the stage with such local heroes like the bands playing in our day."
About the performance's playlist, Moonspell vocalist revealed: "We will make a setlist more based on old stuff as we celebrate 30 years in 2022! So expect all the classics and evergreens. Moonspell plays for the crowd and we made sure they get want they want!"
Finally, he concluded his talk with a short message, saying: "Thanks for the interview, see you in Dubai, under the spell!!!
"Thanks for all the support, Moonspell loves you wolfpack!"
