Something of a Belgian Metal 'supergroup', MYSTERY were formed by ex-members of respected Heavy Metal outfits OSTROGOTH and CROSSFIRE. Drummer Chris De Brauwer was previously with the latter outfit, whilst vocalist Peter De Wint had been a member of both bands. The band had quite a runaround, with their debut album being released first in South America by Toco International then Japan before a final European release through ARS Productions.

MYSTERY recorded a single 'She Likes Double Trouble' for the soundtrack to the movie 'Koko Flanel'. The track reached number 9 in the Belgian national charts. MYSTERY's second album 'Backwards', issued by Long Island, was produced by Peter Lesperance and HARRY HESS of Canadian Rockers HAREM SCAREM. Karel Van Marcke contributed keyboards.

The band toured Europe supporting GLENN HUGHES. By 1998 De Wint had re-emerged fronting AFFAIR for the 'Face To Face' album. MYSTERY bassist Joris Holderbeke joined the CHARLES TRAVEAUX BLUES band.
