MYTHIC (USA/PA)
In early 1991, guitarist Dana Duffey contacted the all female band Derketa after
seeing them in an underground fanzine to see if they were interested in adding a
fourth member. At that time, the Pittsburgh based Derketa had actually broken
up, unbeknownst to Dana who was living in Toledo, OH at the time. Dana decided
to visit Pittsburgh, PA to meet with the remaining members of Derketa, former
Wormhole and Master Mechanic bassist Mary Bielich and drummer Terri Heggen. All
seemed to go well so Dana moved to Pittsburgh and the trio began writing music.
It was also decided that Dana would be the vocalist and main lyricist for the
band. The name Mythic was chosen and the band was officially born. Within a
month a three song rehearsal tape was recorded on a 4 track recorder to spread
the word throughout the underground scene. Later that same year they recorded an
official demo entitled "The Immortal Realm" which was recorded live. This six
song tape received heavy promotion, proving Mythic to be substantially more than
an all girl novelty. Within a year of forming they were offered a MCD release
from Relapse Records. Again, Mythic were eager to record and entered the studio
immediately.
‘Mourning In The Winter Solstice’ was released in 1992 on MCD, 7" record (both
traditional black and limited blue vinyl) and cassette. Soon after this release,
MYTHIC parted ways with Terri Heggen and a session drummer was used for what
would be the final performance at the legendary Milwaukee Metalfest VI. After
the festival, MYTHIC strangely disbanded. Dana promptly formed the notorious
Black Metal band act DEMONIC CHRIST. Bielich went on to join the Doom band
NOVEMBERS DOOM, Brian Griffin of BROKEN HOPE’s side project EM SINFONIA and by
2001 was a member of PENANCE. She would also figure in the scene as part of the
political Punk band BEHIND ENEMY LINES.
