Cryptic Wintermoon was founded 1993 out of former members of the band BLACK PROPHECIES. This first formation consisted of the following members:
Bernd Seeberger (vocals/keyboards), Larsen Beattie (guitars), Christian Reichel (bass guitar) and Marek Karakasevic (drums).
With this formation CRYPTIC WINTERMOON played a few local concerts. At the end of 1994 Bernd Seeberger decided to leave the band because of personal reasons. Ronny Dörfler, the vocalist of a local Thrash band called TERRIBLE SOMNIUM took the place behind the CRYPTIC WINTERMOON microphone. Later drummer Marek had been replaced with the former TERRIBLE SOMNIUM guitar player Alexander Pöhlmann. With this line-up the band recorded the demo-tape "Voyage Dans La Lune" in August 1995, which was mainly sold in the underground. As Ronny decided to concentrate on his part as singer, Andrea Walter came into the band to play the keys.
