Notes:
– Formed at the tail end of NWOBHM (1983) and got their name from a sword which appears on Michael Moorcock’s novels. According to the band, Michael Moorcock himself granted permission to Dunken Mullett and Rich Jones for the use of the name.
– One of the most active bands on stage, Mournblade toured and giged constantly until they split in 1989 some time after their British tour with Motorhead. Their early shows were remarkable performances using numerous costumes, props as well as LEDs and lasers.
– Reformed in 2012 after a 25 year hiatus and played The Heavy Metal Maniacs festival in Hoorn, The Netherlands.
– Singer Dunken Mullet is a senior Aikido instructor at The Institute of Aikido Auckland in New Zealand
– Drummer Garry Bowler is a non stop live performer and session recording artist in numerous diverse projects. He has also been recording a lot of material for several British TV and Radio stations
