The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath a Cloud (styled The Moon lay hidden beneath a Cloud) was an Austrian musical duo composed of Albin Julius and Alzbeth. Their music reflected their deep fascination with myriad aspects of European medievalism including ritual, clerical chants and the daily experience of the peasantry.
The Moon lay hidden's latest album, The Smell of Blood but Victory, has been produced in a limited edition of 1000 and comes in a card box with a mini-poster and bonus CD. Continuity with the duo's established style is maintained by Elisabeth's characteristic songs, chants and demonic dirges, while innovation is provided by the increasingly varied style of Albin's music which ranges from the pandemonium of a demonic carnival to dreamy orchestral pieces with a very hypnotic quality. Clever use is made of looped soundclips, Scottish poetry is read by David Gibson of World Serpent, and spoken words are also contributed by Lina Baby Doll of Deutsch Nepal. With interesting tunes, varied treatments, and a fuller sound, the duo has reached a level of sophistication and maturity that makes this their best release to date. It's very professional and highly recommended.
Their music combined modern electronics, tape loops and samplers with medieval instruments such as the shawm, hurdy gurdy, and Hexenscheit. Alzbeth was the primary vocalist for the group and often sang traditional songs in numerous archaic languages including Middle High German, Latin and Old French. Julius provided distorted and backup vocals. When performing live, the band often played in old churches, fortresses, medieval prisons and theatres that provided an appropriate atmosphere for their static, militaristic performances. Early on, the band provided no official photographs or any more information outside of a Swiss mailing address found inside of the albums. The band rarely appeared live or granted interviews. No songs were ever given official titles. After their split, both of the duo were considerably more vocal and promotional images were released. With each subsequent release the band presented themes traveling further into European history and becoming more martial, choral and bombastic in approach, culminating in their final album; the largely World War II-inspired The Smell of Blood but Victory.
