Black Moon June is a hard rock/ heavy metal band from Sweden. The band is known for its variety - the songs range from heavy doom metal riffs to melodic hard rock.
Black Moon June was formed in 2022 by Mathias, Conny and Toby. Later, Chris and Richie joined the band. (On the debut album, hired gun Jon Skäre plays drums.)
Most of 2023 was spent on writing songs, and later that year releasing their debut single “The King is Dead”. Several singles has been released during 2024, and in Oct 25 they released their critically acclaimed debut album, “The Witch Hammer”.
The title track “Under A Black Moon Sky (The Witch Hammer)" is based on a true story - the witch trials during the late Middle Ages. In 1487, the book "Malleus Maleficarum" (The Witch Hammer, in english) was written, causing thousands of people (mostly women) to be executed.
The songwriting process in Black Moon June is a team work, with all three bandmembers working close together, forming each song. Toby writes the lyrics, and Mathias usually comes up with most of the guitar riffs. (Exceptions on the debut album are "Ring the alarm" - an idea by Conny - and the title track "Under A Black Moon Sky (The Witch Hammer) which is built on guitar riffs from Toby).
On March 14th. the band released a brand new single "Madhouse".
