Mythyca

FORMED IN 2001, ADELAIDE DEATH METAL OUTFIT MYTHYCA STARTED OUT UNDER THE NAME MYTHICA, WRITING A STYLE OF MELODIC DEATH METAL IN EPIC PREPORTIONS WHICH EVENTUALLY LED TO BREAKING OUT ON THE LIVE SCENE IN MAY 2004 AS A 4 PIECE BAND. BY THE YEARS END A 4 TRACK SELF TITLED DEMO WOULD BE RECORDED ("MYTHICA") AND RELEASED IN THE SUMMER OF 2005.
WITH A DEMO RECORDING UNDER THEIR BELT AND INTEREST GROWING, SHOWS CONTINUED ON THE LIVE SCENE PLAYING WITH OTHER LOCAL ACTS. OPPORTUNITES BEGAN TO SURFACE IN THE FORM OF SUPPORT TO INTERNATIONAL BANDS TOURING AUSTRALIA FROM SWEDEN AND GERMANY RESPECTIVELY. MEANWHILE, PLANS FOR A FULL LENGTH RECORDING WERE TAKING PLACE.
DECEMBER 2005 BROUGHT CHANGE TO THE BAND WITH A DECISION TO CHANGE THE SPELLING OF THE BAND NAME. IT HAD COME TO OUR ATTENTION THAT OTHER "MYTHICA'S" WERE IN OPERATION SO TO UNIQUELY SEPARATE OURSELVES FROM THE REST BUT KEEPING THE SAME PRONUNCIATION "MYTHICA" WAS TO BE REPLACED WITH "MYTHYCA". WITH A SLIGHTLY ALTERED NAME ON BOARD MYTHYCA THEN HEADED INTO AGAINST THE GRAIN STUDIO TO RECORD A FULL LENGHT DEBUT OFFERING.
OCTOBER 2006 SAW THE RELEASE OF "NINTH OF THE NINE HELLS" THE FULL LENGHT ALBUM COMBINING DEATH METAL WITH MELODIC PASSAGES AND GROOVE. WITH A SUCCESSFUL LAUNCH AND CONTINUED SHOWS, MYTHYCA TRAVELLED TO SCONE N.S.W. TO BE A PART OF METALSTOCK III. AUSTRALIA'S ONLY OPEN AIR METAL FESTIVAL.
MYTHYCA CONTINUE TO EXECUTE GROOVE DEATH METAL WITH MELODIC TWISTS UNLEASHING A SONIC ASSUALT OF THE SENSES. A SECOND ALBUM IS ON THE CARDS WITH A REFRESHED LINEUP. SO LET THE MADNESS BEGIN!!!!
