Moonreich was founded in 2008 as a solo project, lead by Weddir who composed the first EP "Zoon Politikon" that was released on the French label "Infernal Kommando". In order to promote this new release, a single concert took place in Paris in June 2009 with a non-permanent line-up.

Once this EP was out, Weddir went on composing the first album of the band and finally record it in October 2009. After many delays, "Loi Martiale" was finally released in January 2011 on the Italian label "De Tenebrarum Principio" that provided a worldwide promotion and distribution.

While the recording of the album was still in process, Weddir started looking for musicians to promote Moonreich's music in France and foreign countries. Around 900 CDs have been sold since the release which is quite substantial in the underground music world for a first black metal album.

A the end of 2011, Moonreich recorded a new EP named "Curse Them", that includes four tracks more dissonant and brutal than "Loi Martiale". The digital version was released in April 2012 whil the actual CD came out in September 2012 on the french label "Mortis Humamae". Many reviews have emphasized the originality and the strength of Moonreich's new material.

The band releases their second full length album "Terribilis Est Locus Iste" in March 2013, still on the Italian label "De Tenebrarum Principio".

In 2015, the band announced their thrid full length album "Pillars Of Destes" that will be release on the 19th of September 2015 through the french label "Les Acteurs De l'Ombre Productions"
