About: XIII. století

XIII. století is a gothic rock band from Jihlava founded in 1990 by brothers Petr and Pavel Štěpán, who transitioned from their earlier punk project HNF (Hrdinové nové fronty). Led by Petr Štěpán as songwriter, poet and writer, the band developed a distinctive aesthetic centered on dark romanticism and mythological imagery, performed exclusively in Czech. The 1992 debut album Amulet became a cornerstone of Czech gothic rock and established the band's devoted fanbase throughout the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany.

About: Protheus

Protheus is the solo project of Czech singer Jan Macků (born 1983 in Chrudim), who took the name from his time leading the metal band Dymytry (2005-2023). Following a farewell concert at Prague's O2 Arena in November 2023, Macků has devoted himself fully to his own band. He has released three studio albums - Závislosti (2022), Nepřestávej snít (2023) and Svět lidí (2025) - moving away from metal toward melodic rock and significantly expanding his listener base.
