Veiled Moon is a metal band from Naples, Italy, formed in 1996. Since its foundation the band tried to do something new in the Neapolitan metal scene of that period, playing a singular mix of thrash, death and doom metal with some keyboards inserts.

In 2005 Veiled Moon was reformed as a one-man band: the will was to use Veiled Moon to express the creative vein of its owner without any kind of musical restriction. The new musical experiences of its mastermind, and the activity in the black metal band Gort as drummer, created a new "sound" for his new project more close to a black metal sound even if the doom metal influences are always in, and the orchestral parts are more present than in the past. These new influences bring Thorgrim to call some session musicians and the choice went to Lord Lemory as vocalist (also in Gort and Tenebra), Count Leshrac Belmont on keyboards( also in Aequinoctium), Mortiis Daemonium on guitars and Ophelia, who joined the band as permanent member, providing female vocals.
