In 1988, an album dropped that was way ahead of its time—a progressive-thrash-crossover experiment that left metalheads scratching their heads. Some loved it, some didn’t get it, but Mystery refused to be ignored. While German metal critics weren’t sold, Kerrang! called it: "The most fascinating progressive-thrash crossover I’ve heard in ages." With its futuristic artwork and mind-bending compositions, this LP still raises eyebrows today. The bizarre mix of influences had people wondering: Are these even metal musicians? Years of research later, the answer is finally in… and let’s just say, this album was no accident. For those who truly get it, Mystery is a once-in-a-lifetime trip. And now, it’s back—remastered and reissued in an exclusive LP + CD package. Are you ready to unravel the mystery?
