The leading German Melodic Black Metal trio - Mystic Circle were founded back in 1992 by bassist/singer Beelzebub and after releasing three demos they launched their debut CD “Morgenröte” in 1997, which was released on Last Episode, followed by the albums “Drachenblut” (1998) and “Infernal Satanic Verses” (1999). Let’s call this the “German” episode. The international chapter began in 2000 when MYSTIC CIRCLE signed to Massacre Records and released “The Great Beast”, followed by their stroke of genius “Damien” in 2002 and “Open The Gates Of Hell” in 2003. After the release of their first Best Of album accurately related to “Unholy Chronicles 1992 – 2004” they signed a contract with Dockyard 1, which marked the commencement of a new Mystic Circle area. Now they’re taking a new step with their 7th full length album “The Bloody Path Of God” - citing the old Black Metal roots, but evolving further into the no man’s land between Death and Black. Changing guitars between blast beats and tight riff-picking show a mature band very eager to go beyond the boundaries.

Guitar player Ezpharess comments: “We’re taking one step back to our early black metal roots with “The Bloody Path Of God” We used keyboards again, to provide the haunted atmosphere songs like “Doomsday Prophecy”, “Riders Of The Apocalypse”, “The Forgotten” or “Unholy Terror” deserve. Also singer Beelzebub is screaming again, and doesn’t use the death-metal-alike growls of “Open The Gates Of Hell” anymore.”

    Hmm, i like this band only because of it's sound on 'morgenröte' (and some insane melodic riffs on the latter stuff) I wish a more extreme act would use such a sound appropriately in such a grim bass-y, detailedness of ace
