History
WhipKraft started out as a duo in San Francisco’s industrial Rocker Studios as a musical experiment. Vena Kava officially formed WhipKraft in 2004. However, in 2003, Kava met The Slough Feg to form the early foundations of the band. WhipKraft was soon a live circuit act, with Slough Feg Members backing Kava; these included, Maestas, Mike Scalzi and Greg Ha. WhipKraft was a full-on theatrical performance, with dancers, performers and costumes. In 2007, WhipKraft released their debut album Welcome to the Chapel Perilous.
Killing Moon draws from the following musical influences: Iron Maiden, Children of Bodom, Slayer, Behemoth, Megadeth, Stratovarius, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy and Fear of God.
The band was originally named WhipKraft, but, in 2009, the band changed the name to Killing Moon.
