Thirdmoon

Thirdmoon are a Melodic death metal band from Austria.
1994 was the year when longing for death became a new name:
T H I R D M O O N
With the debut called “Grotesque Autumnal Weepings” recorded in 1997, a dark melancholic deathwish was released upon the world. The unique mix of melody, melancholy, aggression and beautiful accoustic parts composed by Mastermind Wolfgang Rothbauer, established Thirdmoon as a leading act in austrian metal.
With a new French member, Thirdmoon signed 1999 to napalm records and entered the studio in 1999 for the second album “Aquis Submersus” which showed the band from a slower and darker edge with more groove and more variety of vocal and guitar arrangements.
After lots of concerts, Thirdmoon entered the studio in 2000, to release the third album “Bloodforsaken”. With more aggression, brutality, melody and melancholy, Thirdmoon was clearly drawn towards melodic death metal. The tour with the german act "Eisregen" followed and Thirdmoon showed a high-energy performance that impressed the audience and press.
2001 Thirdmoon and "Napalm records" stopped their cooperations. Unfortunately it took three years before recording “Sworn Enemy: Heaven”. The record turned out to be filled with more groove and straight-in-your-face brutal than the earlier albums - but still with the embracing of catchy melodic themes and beautiful – emotional accoustic parts that represents Thirdmoon.
In january 05,with a new strong lineup, Thirdmoon hooked up with Grave (Sweden) and Disparaged (Switzerland) for the “Fiendish Reggression Tour”. And prove again that their shows stay a great experience for all metal maniacs.
Now, after playing on summer festivals Thirdmoon returned to work for new intense stuff for you!
