Mystic Prophecy is a power metal band that comes from Germany. The band was formed R.D. Liapakis and Martin Albrecht. Gus G. was also part of this outfit, he played all guitars on their three first albums, but left in 2005 to spend more time in his other band Firewind. But do to other line up changes, the band almost gave up. Luckily for the fans, they kept going and just got stronger and stronger.

They have been described as sounding power metal similar to bands such as Iced Earth for example, so you have a basic idea on how their latest album (Killhammer) will sound like.

It has it all, except the power to leave a mark. Sound is awesome, great riffs/solos, awesome melodies,….But yeah, it doesn’t do anything for me. Could be me as it isn’t a record/genre I would normally listen to. So I guess fans of this band, or genre will know how to appreciate this record.
