Wizard is a German power metal band, formed in 1989 by the drummer Sören van Heek.
The band is often called "Germany's answer to Manowar". The lyrics are similar: which often are about battles, metal, war, steel and such subjects. (The exception is the album Odin, which is a concept album about Norse mythology). Wizard does play a little bit faster than Manowar though, and does have a high-pitched vocalist.
In 2003 longtime guitarist Michael Maass quit the band because of health problems.
In 2006 the band left the label Limb Music after four albums and joined the somewhat bigger label Massacre Records with a new album in mind to be released in January 27, 2007, titled Goochan.
