Started sometime during school in 1975 and used the name Zarathustra until 1977
– Until they split in 1982 they were a VERY active live band with a VERY strong local following
– One of the covers they played on gigs was Axe’s (later known as Fist) ‘Name, Rank and Serial Number’ which was a massive local hit and (according to reports) Mythra actually played it heavier and faster.
– They were meant to support Ted Nugent for his 1980 European tour and just days before it started the management of Wild Horses came up with a bigger offer and Mythra had to cancel their part of the deal.
– Split up in 1981. Briefly reformed in 2001 with a line up of Vince High (v), Maurice Bates (g), John Roach (g), Pete Melson (b) and Barry Hopper (d) to record an album of 11 new songs.
– Reformed again in 2014 and out with new cd "Still burning" in 2017
