Don't forget the Nightingale song, One of the Lonely Ones. Maybe Dan is actually a vampire, and he's always referencing the moon because he doesn't see the sun that often.
 
I heard Twilight (the book series, not the mindblowing song) was really written about the Swanö brothers. Dan is that vampire guy, Dag the werewolf guy and Eric is the lady who has to choose between them.
 
Found that the Opeth albums produced by Dan Swanö had some moon refrences also... and so did Novembers doom
 
Star One - Space Metal - High Moon
I'm sure the moon is mentioned several times in both albums, but probably not because Swano is featured in the band ^^
 
oh dear. people tend to have too much time on their hands.
well. there is a song on Edge of Sanity's "Evolution" compilation named "Moonshine"

Thanks for the addition I admit I had to much time, but it was just control F on his discography for the most part

I also added DIABOLICAL MASQUERADE and Katatonia.
 
We need confirmation from Dan himself. I am very curious the meaning of what the big deal about the moon is.
 
Perhaps he just likes the smell of it? The shape, the tone, the sound? THE EYES
 
Dan did backing vocals on Swallow The Sun's New Moon album on the song "Falling World"
The album itself has 7 mentions of the moon and a title track
