[edit] History
On The Might Of Princes began on Long Island in 1998, creating their own dynamic sound, fusing melody and technicality, intertwined with dramatic guitar progressions, fast leads and a tight rhythm section. The move from local DIY record labels to the larger independent Revelation Records was criticized by some of their fans. On The Might Of Princes developed a loyal cult following through consistent touring including some festival shows, such as Hellfest and Magicfest. On The Might Of Princes disbanded in May of 2004. The band began a short reunion at the end of 2006, culminating in three final shows in May of 2007.
