Here is some information i found about the relationship between satanists and the moon phasesThis is creepy. The "na na na na" part reminds me of TY's 'Something New' as well. This whole thing seems like a legit sacrifice, it's so damn strange. Their official logo doesn't make it any better.
The Valknut is a powerful old Norse viking occult symbol represented by the three interlocking triangles. In many images it can be seen as a representation of Odin and the afterlife. While the exact meaning of Valknut is unsure, however it is believed and indicated to symbolise the connectedness of the nine worlds represented in the vikings world.
Another belief for the Valknut symbol meaning was as a aid for reincarnation, cyclical relationships and in talismans to ward against evil. (source)
Their 1st mini album is titled "Be Born", it matches the 'reincarnation' concept mentioned earlier.
In the archaeological record, the Valknut appears only in connection with the cult of the dead, as in the aforementioned runestones and ship burial. Similar-looking symbols can also be found on the cremation urns of the Anglo-Saxons,another Germanic people closely related to the Norse linguistically, ethnically, and in terms of their pre-Christian worldview and religion.
To find associations with both death and Odin together should come as no surprise, since Odin was, among many, many other things, a psychopomp – that is, a figure who ferries the spirits of the dead to the underworld and then back to the world of the living – as well as the leader of various hosts of the dead, such as the warriors of Valhalla and of the Wild Hunt.
Odin was also one of the most powerful of all magicians and shamans. In the literary sources, Odin and his attendant spirits such as the valkyriesoften use magic that is described in terms of binding and unbinding, tying up the mind or untying it. In the words of historian H.R. Ellis Davidson, “Odin had the power to lay bonds upon the mind, so that men became helpless in battle, and he could also loosen the tensions of fear and strain by his gifts of battle-madness, intoxication, and inspiration.” She and others interpret the Valknut, with its knot-like appearance, as a symbolic expression of this idea.
So, given the present state of our knowledge, we can reasonably assume that the meaning of the Valknut has much to do with death, the transition from life to death and probably back again, Odin, and the power to bind and unbind. This powerfully and convincingly suggests a particular range of possible meanings. It tells us something of its meaning, but this is so general that it can hardly be the whole picture. Was the Valknut believed to impart a particular power over life and death? If so, did it impart this power to the one who drew the symbol or to the dead person over which it was drawn? Did it help to bring about a particular desired state of being within the realm of the dead, or did it hasten the return of the dead to life, or something else entirely?
Ultimately, then, while we can be relatively sure of the ideas with which the Valknut was associated, its particular meaning is a tantalizing mystery. (source)

Why moon, I wonder?
So I searched about the relation between the moon and Odin (the main character behind Valknut symbolism), and I found this:
What do the Egyptian god Horus and the Norse god Odin have in common? Both of them are said to have the sun and moon as their eyes. The difference is that this belief about Horus dates back to very early Egyptian religion. As far as I can tell, the same statement about Odin comes from some 19th and 20th century writers.
Like many Egyptian deities, Horus had a very long career, beginning as a falcon-headed sky god with the sun and moon as his eyes, to symbolize his all-seeing nature. As time went on the myth changed. As Horus the sky-god was identified with Horus the son of Osiris, his “moon” eye was the one damaged when he fought Set. (Don’t feel too bad for him – Set lost his testicles.)
The magician-god Thoth restored his eye, known as the Wedjat, meaning “whole”. Despite this, the damaged, left eye was supposed to be the moon, waxing and waning as it healed from its damage each month.

Odin, on the other hand, lost his eye voluntarily. He approached the giant Mimir, who guarded a well that granted wisdom to whoever drank from it. The giant told him that the price would be one of his eyes. Odin, to give him credit, was as ruthless with himself as he was with his followers, and sacrificed the eye. What exact benefit he received is not spelled out in the myth, but he seems to have felt it was worth it.
‘Why do you question me? Why do you test me?
I know everything, Odin, where you hid your eye
in the famous Well of Mimir’
Mimir drinks mead every morning
from the Father of the Slain’s wager — do you understand yet, or what more? (Vsp. 28)
From the Prose Edda (Gylfaginning) we have:
…there is where Mimir’s well is, which has wisdom and intelligence contained in it, and the master of the well is called Mimir. He is full of learning because he drinks of the well from the horn Giallarhorn. All-father went there and asked for a single drink from the well, but he did not get one until he placed his eye as a pledge. (Snorri goes on to quote the verse from Vsp. above.) 14-5.
Later, when the Ragnarök begins:
When these events take place, Heimdall will stand up and blow mightily on Giallarhorn, and awaken all the gods and they will hold a parliament together. Then Odin will ride to Mimir’s well and consult Mimir on his own and his people’s behalf. (51)
Or, as Völuspá has it:
Loud blows Heimdall, his horn is aloft. Odin speaks with Mim’s head. (46)
This is all we have in the lore of Odin’s eye. Nowhere is the sun or the moon mentioned. For that, we have to look to a more modern mythology.
19th-century nature-myth has a lot to answer for. And, since the books that popularized these ideas are out of copyright and thus available in cheap editions or free online, these ideas continue to spread. For example:
“The eye of the god of heaven is the sun, which enlightens and penetrates all things; his other eye is the moon, whose reflection gazes out of the deep, and which, at last, when setting, sinks into the ocean. It also appears like the crescent-shaped horn with which the Jotun drew the draught of wisdom.” (Wägner: 86)
Nature-myth starts from the assumption that mythology was a primitive sort of science, trying to explain the world around us using the actions of deities. So thunder was the sound of Thor’s chariot-wheels as he rode through the sky.
Odin’s eyes could be the sun and moon if he was a supreme god, preferably a sky-god. (Like Horus, for example.) Since one of Odin’s titles is All-Father, and he is clearly head of the Asgardian pantheon, there is no question that he is the supreme god. The fact that he was associated with war, with accompanying Valkyries, and the Wild Hunt streaming across the sky, however, suggests storms rather than the sun. His name comes from the word óðr, “raving, possessed”, with the –in suffix making it a name. (Puhvel: 193)
Tyr identified with Mars. 18th C. Icelandic Manuscript. (Wikipedia)
Norse mythology does have a sky-god like Horus, but he seems to have faded out of the picture by the time the myths were being recorded. His name is Tyr in Old Icelandic, or Tiw or Ziu in Old English and German. His name can be traced back to an Indo-European root word meaning “sky”. Odin seems to have displaced him as head god, and one 20th-century writer tried to reconcile this:
The eye of Odin (really *Djevs) is an emblem of the sun and Mimir’s drinking mead from it every morning is a representation of the sun’s rising just as the hiding of the eye is the sun’s setting. Mimir’s name appears to be connected with the Latin memor, “memory” and hence with wisdom: the myth then develops into a tale of a Sky God who pledged one eye in return for the gift of wisdom. (Branston 114.)
(Norse myth is already supplied with a sun and moon, with their own myth, but that doesn’t mean there couldn’t be another one. It’s just that the sources don’t give us any grounds to think so.)
If we accept it as modern mythology, there are some interesting interpretations that open up. Carla O’Harris, posting in the Völuspá discussion group, said:
Moon (other eye) thrown into the Well = Moon Going Below the Waters = Moon in the Underworld, while the Sun is in the Above-World : One eye always visible, while the other is “beneath the waters” (= in the underworld).
Here the Sun and Moon would not literally be Odin’s eyes, but metaphorically, akin to Huginn and Muginn. In other words, the Sun sees all and reports it back to Odin, and the same with the Moon.
Which is an interesting way of thinking about it, and takes us away from the implication of nature myth (i.e.: our ancestors were stupid) and goes back to the original myth and Odin’s urgent, driven search for wisdom and knowledge from whatever source, and at any cost.
The symbolism of Odin’s two eyes, like his two birds, point towards different ways of gaining widsom and understanding of the world. We know that Odin was a great battle-strategist, full of cunning, but that he also practiced magic and shaman-like trancework. The sun and moon motif is a way of expressing his two modes of acting in the world, both practical and magical.
So... different stories, same evil. Here's more on Odin (you can just read the underlined words):
The greatest of all Norse gods, Odin earned Wednesday as his namesake. Also read as Woden/Wodan/Wotan and known as the Allfather, Odin was the king of Asgard, ruler over the Aesir (the greatest Norse gods), and Lord of War, Death, and Knowledge. He is known to travel secretively across the world as an old man wearing a wide-brimmed hat (think Gandalf), and has only one eye after trading his other for a drink from Well of Wisdom at the base of the World Tree, Yggdrasil (during which time we also stabbed and hung himself for nine days). Odin is accompanied by two ravens, Huginn and Muninn, two wolves, Geri (“Greedy”) and Freki (“Ravenous”), and rides into battle atop the eight-legged horse, Sleipnir. He is credited with building our world out of the remains of the frost-giant Ymir, and will unfortunately die during the final battle of Ragnarok after being eaten by the great beast Fenrir. The biggest negative, though, is that Odin requires human sacrifices for worship. (source)
I tried looking into the Norse/Germanic calendar as well to see if there's any significance with the blood moon and human sacrifice but I failed to understand most of the stuff lol.
EDIT:
Found this very informative comment in the first blog. This had sparked a debate among the blog readers, but I find it to be worth mentioning. Not that I want to mislead people if it contains any false info since I'm not familiar with the mythology as well.

''The moon is more than a symbol to a Satanist; it is a guiding light. You do not have to believe in magic to know that the moon effects the earth’s tides, and that without this our oceans, and life itself, would not flourish. Moon magic allows us to have a guide.And, if you recognize Satan as the force of nature then you are aligning yourself with these forces by observing the world you live in, and living by it in a conscious way.
Timing is one of the most important elements of magic. Timing with magic is the ability to recognize and to use the events of the natural world as a guide for when and how to cast your spell. A spell that is cast too late, or without the right ingredients is a recipe for failure because there is a lack of focus and direction, and the energy is misspent and wasted.
The sun, moon and stars have been characterized as containing power and influence upon our world, so much power that cults and religions were built upon their worship. What Satanic gods represent the symbol of the moon? The demons of night, the ones associated with nightmares, and visions of the subconscious.
By using the phases of the Moon as a guide for casting spells, you can increase your chances of success with magic and witchcraft.
The Sun is often related to male energies, the conscious mind and the timing of the seasons. The moon guides the tides of the ocean and it also has an influence upon the subconscious mind. Within astrology, in a person’s natal birth chart, the positions, degrees and sign of the sun and moon are recorded [along with the ascendant or rising sign] as the basis of the natal chart, representing the outside forces, the ego and self image, the masculine and active forces. -------> [[May be Dongyoon was studied very well (his birth date , how the sun and moon were aligned on that date )and was perfect for the sacrifice idk but that makes me cry if it's true :'( ]]
Observing the phase of the moon before spell casting increases the focus for spells. In Satanic Witchcraft you can align yourself with the moon’s phases to harness the moon’s influential power.
These phases are created by the reflection of the light from the sun. Within this cycle are found four phases of the moon, starting with a full moon, which is said to be waxing when the reflection on the moon is growing or increasing during the phase. During this growing phase, spells of increase, gain, luck, fortune and creation are most successful.
A waning moon comes after the full moon phase, where the shadow increases on the surface of the moon, and the moon gradually becomes darker on each day of its phase. During this time spells of binding, black magic, and destruction are most successful. This continues until it is called a Dark moon, when the power of destruction is at its metaphysical peak. The moon then increases or is said to be waxing until it is full once more. Moon magic that is cast on the full moon can help to represent a powerful force.''
That's what satanists believe in. That the moon makes them powerful if they make sacrifices and cast spells. Unfortunately many innocent people and animals have to be sacrificed for satan so he can keep ruling over the world. Hope God can put an end to this madness!!!
