"The Antidote" is Moonspell's sixth full-length album, released in 2003 by Century Media. It is regarded as a return to a heavier musical style in comparison to the previous album, Darkness and Hope, although it is nonetheless quite different from all the previous albums.

The third track, "Everything Invaded" had a music video.

Book

The album was released with a (limited) book named "O Antídoto" (the antidote, in Portuguese) by José Luís Peixoto. They both share a single concept and the same story. Each song in the CD is sister to a chapter in the book that enhances the story in the lyrics. The CD contains the book in electronic format.
