Deze duitse vrienden hebben al zo'n 7 studioalbums gemaakt en zijn in mijn ogen het best te omschrijven als progressive thrash. Met name de eerste 2 albums zijn klassiekers in het genre.
Mekong Delta 1987
The Gnom 1987
The Music of Erich Zann 1988
Toccata 1989
The Principle of doubt 1989
Dances of Death (and other walking shadows) 1990
Live at an exhibition 1991
Kaleidoscope 1992
Classics 1993
Visions Fugitives 1994
Pictures at an exhibition 1996
The Principle of doubt (Ambitions) 2005
Omdat ik lui ben 'leen' ik de omschrijving van BNRmetal.com:
Met name het nieuws dat ze weer in de studio zitten doet vermoeden dat er een complot gaande is in progmetalland, de ene na de andere reunie wordt aangekondigd.Mekong Delta emerged on the metal scene as a mystery band, with the story being that the members were under contract to other bands and thus could not reveal their true identities. Early lineups featured Rage mainman Peavey Wagner (and other Rage members as well), but by the time of the first album, a firm lineup was established, consisting of the following members (the real names were not known for a number of years): Keil (Wolfgang Borgmann), Rolf Stein (Frank Fricke, then in Living Death), Vincent St. John (Reiner Kelch, also of Living Death), Bjorn Eklund (Ralf Hubert), and Gordon Perkins (Jörg Michael, then in Rage). The band continued to use pseudonyms for several years (Uwe Baltrusch was listed as Mark Kaye, and Uli Kusch as Patrick Duval). Eventually the real names were revealed, and by 1990 (when Dances Of Death was released) all but Jörg Michael were using their true names.
The music of Mekong Delta is best described as Germanic thrash, with strong progressive and classical tendencies. When they're at their best they are almost untouchable, though at other times the arrangements are a bit too chaotic. Several of the albums are of the hit-and-miss affair, with The Music Of Erich Zann arguably one of their better and most consistent releases. Over the course of their career the band has covered several classical pieces (mostly by Mussorsky), and these have been re-released as the Classics compilation. The last album is all-instrumental and is entirely based on classical pieces, with vocalist Doug Lee not appearing even though he was still considered a member of the band at the time.
With no recordings in eight years and little word from the band, rumors began to circulate that leader Ralf Hubert had left the country and/or had even died. In fact Hubert is alive and well, and has put together a new lineup (below), with recording for a new album already in progress.

Ja ik ken ze uiteraard al heel lang, en vind ze ook erg goed. Ik vind ze één vd weinige bands die erg goed uit de verf komen als ze klassiek thema's gebruiken. Vooral "Night On The Bare Mountain" van Moussorgsky is echt killer van hun!!!
Ja we worden wel een beetje voorspelbaar 
Ik ken alleen de eerste paar albums en daarna ben ik ze uit het oog verloren....zoals zoveel bands in het begin van de jaren '90 (kennelijk andere prioriteiten
