German gothic/post-punk band, formerly Occult Black Metal, composed by ex-members of Martyrium (album: LVX Occulta). Formed in Osnabrück, Germany, in 1995, releasing their first demo Unearthed Arcana in the same year, finally venting their boundless creative force and obsessive will with Stronghold of the Inviolables (2001) and De Musica Mundana (2002). In 2004, Secrets of the Moon signed a contract with Lupus Lounge and endeavour to afflict deep wounds to the world with their sinister manifest Carved in Stigmata Wounds.
