Since the unholy reunion between the two MYSTIC CIRCLE founders A. Blackwar and Beelzebub in 2021, the Germanic black metal gods of war are stronger than ever. What began anew in 2022 with the self-titled “Mystic Circle” album and was rewarded with a sensational #78 place in the German album charts, was continued the following year in “Erzdämon” and now completed in “Hexenbrand 1486”. “More serious, more respectful and more authentic” is the definition of this new MYSTIC CIRCLE epic ‘Hexenbrand 1486’ - a statement that also applies to the band's attitude. The band's tenth studio album is largely about the “Malleus Maleficarum”, the witches' hammer, which was written in Speyer in 1486. A pitch-black mix of death, black and traditional heavy metal with a horror soundtrack flair.
