Additional Notes: Formed under the name Sabazios and changed to Mysticum in 1993 after releasing one demo.
Some songs for their second album Planet Satan were recorded but for some reason never released (though as recently as 2010 there has been talk by at least one band member of actually releasing it) and in the year 2000 the band broke up/disappeared. Later one of those songs, "Black Magic Mushrooms" was made available as one of two songs on the Audiopain/Mysticum split 7" vinyl, released by Worship Him Records.
Hellhammer from Mayhem (Nor) was a member for a short period of time after the release of "In the Streams of Inferno", but he never recorded anything with the band.
The split demo with Manes is a bootleg, despite what Mysticums site might give you the impression of.
