NWOBHM Band Mythra Plan First Show In Over 30 Years
. (Classic Rock) Influential NWOBHM outfit Mythra will play their first gig in more than 30 years at next month's Brofest festival. The band have reunited for the event in Newcastle, which runs from February 27 to March 1 and also features Blitzkrieg, High Spirits and Avenger. Mythra won critical acclaim for their debut EP, Death And Destiny, released in 1979. They were cited as influences by Metallica and others, but after an initial flurry of support, they suffered a number of blows which prevented their promising career from taking off. Death And Destiny was later expanded into a full album, which was never given an official release. Record company disputes and bad luck contrived to break the spirit of the group, who called it a day in 1983. Singer Vince High says: "There has been continued interest in Mythra over the years and the promoters of Brofest invited us to perform last year, but work commitments from some of our guys meant it couldn't happen. "We are, however, playing on Friday, February 27. It is our first gig in over 30 years and we're all really looking forward to it and sounding great in rehearsals." Read more here.
