MOONSPELL was named "Best Portuguese Act" at MTV's 13th annual European Music Awards, which were held earlier tonight (Thursday, Nov. 2) in Copenhagen, Denmark. This is the first time ever a metal band has won that particular award in Europe. The group has since issued the following statement:
"We won MTV Euro awards for best Portuguese act and wish to dedicate it to all people around the world who voted for us and helped MOONSPELL to become a stronger band and Portuguese metal more known to the abroad scene! Thank you a million moons!!!"
