Mythopoeia

The band is from Pilsen (Czech republic). The roots of band go to the year 1993, when band operated with name MYTHOPOEIA KINGDOM OF FROST. In the beginning had band personal problems (place for the 3rd guitar) and with rehearsal. In july 1993 went Heon Ostamon to the army and the life of band was stoped. In this time formed SORATH (black-death metal, founded by 4 members of Mythopoeia). In july 1994 came Heon Ostamon from army and band started work.

The name of band was changed, from philosophical reasons, on MYTHOPOEIA (creation of myth, greek language). The group stabilized with 6 members: Heon Ostamon (keys), Admirerforestae (guitar, vocals), Asura Godwar Gorgon's Ray (vocals), Martin Tree (bass), Francis Empty (guitar), Ottar Distress (drums). In february 1996 came to band new member Johannes Rhodostauroticus R.C. and took place of the 3rd guitar. In september 1996 was recorded debut MC demo at studio BENAS (16 trax, Czech republic).

In the beginning of the year 1997 connected band czech UG label METAL BREATH Prod. and offered place on compilation Breath of Doom (13 bands of czech doom metal scene). MYTHOPOEIA is there presented by song It is blood of my veins taken from the debut demo tape.

In july 1997 left bands bassist Martin Tree (Mythopoeia / Sorath) and one month later took his place new members Lucas (Mythopoeia) and Mar Markion (Sorath). Lucas spent with band 9 months, left band and the place of bass guitar was problem. In june 1998 took place of bass guitar vocalist Asura Godwar Gorgon's Ray and together with Mar Markion healed up this place. In august 1998 band went to studio BENAS again to record new material titled Scheps Ankh, Aesch Mezareph, Atropopaia, Michani (profi MC, coloured cover, 9 songs, 42 min. ) of hermetic doom-death metal music. This material was released by Metal Breath prod. and Equinox prod.
