Not to be confused with the new age musical project started by Bob D’Eith and Paul Schmidt in 1996, Mythos was a German krautrock/proggy band formed in Berlin by vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Stephan Kaske, bassist Harold Weiße and drummer Thomas Hildebrand in 1969.
In 1972 the debut self-titled album was released on legendary kraut label Ohr, featuring a nice psychedelic mood throughout for all to enjoy – even oriental at times. Stephan Kaske played the melody from Händel’s ‘Fireworks Music’ on the flute (very Tull-esk at times) in a rock-greets-classic version.
The peaceful and relaxed sounds on their 1975 follow-up album “Dreamlab” featured a new lineup and adopts a science fiction concept around the story of an extraterrestrial visitor on a journey to Earth.
