Demoniac evolved from the death metal band Purulent Obduction (1990-1993) which had members Occulta Mors, Necromaniac and L.O.N.S. Blacksoul (later Gaamalzagoth, real name: Mirko Schmat) joined in mid 1993. In January 1994 Necromaniac and L.O.N.S. had been kicked out and later formed Andras while the remaining members continued as Moonblood after releasing the only Demoniac-demo that was recorded still together in autumn/late 1993 (second demo comes from VHS rehearsal audio rip.).
The band only released vinyls and cassettes, Any CD pressings are bootlegs. Moonblood have recorded over 13 rehearsal tapes that at no time were any official releases and they're only done for the band members to recall their songs since there was never a usual rehearsal possible with one guy playing all instruments and they've only recorded their songs to remember for future studio sessions. A few tapes/recordings might have been spread to friends and due to massive tape trading activities of one of the members but those were the only copies that were spread among the tape trader scene.
Moonblood has split up; however, it is not known when the band actually broke up. Their last demo "Dusk Woerot" was released in 2003. Recorded in September 2000, the band was officially already dead when this recording has been done.
...And The Snow Covered Lifeless Bodies
Moonblood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Anxious it circles over the horizon
Frost-pregnant winds push it
In front of themselves
The night has thrown it's veil over the land
Birds are filling fast te dark sky
Their huge dark wings wide stretched
Gliding silently through the night
Evaporates when it's touching my skin
I see a light whizzing fast the sky
A shooting star
My black heart beats faster
Out of pleasure, out of fear
I don't know
The weapons died away
Flames beat high into the sky
Fog comes down
The field saturated with blood
With the blood of our enemies
Hail - To you, it was a good battle
Hail to our enemies
Bloodsmeared blades
Smashed armours everywhere
The death was riding with us
Side by side we have fought
The Power of darkness were with us
...And snow covered the lifeless bodies
"And snow covered the lifeless bodies" by Moonblood is a dark and melancholic song that depicts a scene of battle and death, with snow covering the lifeless bodies of fallen soldiers. The lyrics begin with a description of the moon anxiously circling over the horizon, pushed by frost-pregnant winds, as the night throws its veil over the land. The sky is dark and filled with birds gliding silently through the night.
As the snow falls slightly and peacefully, the singer sees a shooting star and becomes overwhelmed by emotion. Their black heart beats faster out of pleasure or fear, they don't know. The lyrics then shift to a description of the aftermath of a battle. The weapons have died away, and flames beat high into the sky as fog comes down. The field is saturated with blood, with the blood of the singer's enemies.
But despite the violence and death, the singer hails their enemies and acknowledges that it was a good battle. Bloodsmeared blades and smashed armours are everywhere, and the power of darkness was with them as they fought side by side with death.
Overall, the lyrics paint a stark picture of a violent and chaotic world, where death and darkness are ever-present.
