There are several artists under the name of Labyrinth

1. Labyrinth is an Italian progressive power metal band created in 1991 in Tuscany, with famous former members (who has left the band since) like Fabio Lione (singer, Rhapsody) or Olaf Thorsen (guitarist, Vision Divine). Formed as Vision, which was later changed to Morbid Vision, and finally Labyrinth in 1994. The band members used to use pseudonyms, many of which were anglicized versions of their own names. Only Olaf Thorsen still uses a stage name. Labyrinth rose to fame in 1998 with the release of their second full length album, ‘Return To Heaven Denied’, on Metal Blade Records. That album allowed the band to be recognised as a leading force of the European metal scene and many prestigious tours (including a full European run with Hammerfall) and festival appearances (most notably Wacken, Dynamo and Gods Of Metal) followed its release, enforcing the name Labyrinth in the entire world. After album, ‘Sons Of Thunder’ (2002) and more tours with heavy metal luminaries such as Helloween and Iron Saviour among others, guitar player and mastermind Olaf Thorsen parted ways with the band in 2002 and started working with his new band Vision Divine. The remaining members of Labyrinth kept running on a different path, exploring a heavier musical approach and signing record deals with Century Media (‘Labyrinth, 2003) and Scarlet Records (‘6 Days To Nowhere’, 2006) in the following years.

    I'm surprised there's no mention of the hip-hop artist of the same name, I didn't realise the italian power metal band were that well known.

    Should have commented here a long time ago, because this band really really impressed me live :D Saw them supporting Sonata and I've never seen a better support band. Truly awesome! (Need to buy their stuff though, oops.. O__O) Must listen to Vision Divine too, Olaf and Alessio were total show-stealers for me so it was a shame to learn they're not proper members (anymore, in Olaf's case).

    Saw them supporting Sonata Arctica in March and they were excellent. Sailors of Time is a fantastic song, really stood out for me. Had heard of them before but never got round to buying anything.
