History

Moderat's first release was an EP, Auf Kosten der Gesundheit ("At the Cost of Health")[2] in 2003. Their first full-length album, Moderat, received mostly favorable reviews. NOW magazine gave the album 4 out of 5 points describing it as "quite creative and surprisingly catchy",[3] and URB 5 out of 5, praising it for being "extremely beautiful and catchy".[4]

In 2009, the readers of Resident Advisor, voted Moderat "The #1 Live Act Of The Year".[1] In 2010, they were voted "The #7 Live Act"[5] by the readers of the same website. Moderat toured Europe throughout the summer and autumn of 2010, playing mostly festivals.

Moderat's second album, II was released on August 2, 2013 digitally and August 6, 2013 physically through Monkeytown Records and Mute in the United States.[6][7] The first video from II was "Bad Kingdom," an illustrated piece directed and produced by Pfadfinderei about a young British man in 1966 London traversing a greedy underworld.

On March 29, 2016 Moderat's third album III was released in Germany.[8] A month before, a video to Reminder was released on YouTube.

On August 2017, Moderat announced they were taking an indefinite hiatus after their 2017 world tour ended in Berlin on 2 September 2017.[9][10][11]
