Life and career

Raised in Brandoa, just outside of Lisbon, Fernando Ribeiro formed Morbid God in 1989, which later changed its name to Moonspell in 1992. Concurrently with his musical endeavors, as a young adult, Ribeiro studied philosophy at the University of Lisbon for a period of time with the unfulfilled aim of becoming a high school philosophy teacher. He has published three books of poetry, namely, Como Escavar um Abismo (2001), As Feridas Essenciais (2004), and Diálogo de Vultos (2007). He has also written a book of prose, Senhora Vingança (2011).

He also took part in the project "A Sombra Sobre Lisboa - Lovecraftian Tales in the City of Seven Hills". A literary work featuring several authors and invoking Lovecraft's worlds adapted to the city of Lisbon. He wrote the introductions to The Best Stories of Howard Phillips Lovecraft, published in 2005, and translated the comic biography Lovecraft into Portuguese.

He has also written regularly for the Portuguese metal magazine LOUD! in a monthly column entitled The Eternal Spectator.

In the same year he also took part in a song by the band Bizarra Locomotiva, called "Anjo Exilado" from the album Álbum Negro and in the Orfeu Rebelde project, released by Optimus Discos.

In 2022, Fernando Ribeiro was chosen to play the role of a high member of the clergy, Gabriel Malagrida, for a documentary in the History TV channel about the 1755 Lisbon earthquake.

Personal life

He has been married since 2017 to Sónia Tavares, lead singer of the band The Gift. They have a son, Fausto, born in 2012, and live in Alcobaça. Ribeiro is a supporter of FC Porto and attributes that personal preference to his father's influence since he was a fan of the northern sports club and was born in Mondim de Basto, in Vila Real District, Northern Portugal.
