Julius co-founded The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath a Cloud along with his then-partner Alzbeth. This project produced more neofolk-based music, based around themes drawn from European history and folklore. Julius has also worked with Douglas P. on the Death In June albums Operation Hummingbird and Take Care & control, and with Boyd Rice on the NON album Children Of The Black Sun. He was also together with Douglas P. part of Boyd Rice and Fiends and has a techno-style project named La Maison Moderne.
Despite denying any claims of neo-fascim in Der Blutharsch's music by Julius, a preliminary injunction against the weekly newspaper "Jungle World" calling the project a "Neo-Nazi Band" was denied by the regional court in Frankenthal, Germany. Arguing that the symbolism used in the project's concerts, merchandise and covers substantiated objective evidence of fascist and national socialist views, Julius' claim was officially dropped.

Der Blutharsch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
As indicated by the lyrics being marked as instrumental, there are no words in this song by Der Blutharsch. Nevertheless, the music itself conveys a powerful and evocative message. The track VI is a haunting and atmospheric piece that combines elements of ambient, neoclassical, and industrial music. The song builds slowly, with eerie synth pads, distant percussion, and sparse piano notes creating a foreboding atmosphere. As the track progresses, the music becomes more dense and complex, with distorted guitar riffs, hypnotic beats, and distorted vocals adding layers of intensity.
The overall effect of VI is one of tension, fear, and mystery. Although there are no lyrics to interpret, the music itself seems to suggest a story of danger and uncertainty. The haunting melodies and dissonant harmonies create a sense of unease, while the industrial percussion and distorted guitars add a sense of aggression and violence. It is a powerful piece that showcases Der Blutharsch's ability to create an immersive and emotive sonic landscape.
