(1) Wizzard was Roy Wood’s post- ELO project. Formed in Wood's hometown of Birmingham, Warwickshire in 1972, they made catchy, jazzy glam-rock hit singles like "Angel Fingers" and "See My Baby Jive" with a retro, Phil Spector-style "wall of sound" production. At the same time, they produced decidedly odd, almost avant-garde albums like Wizzard Brew. They remained active until around 1975.
(2) One of them is a 'blackened' heavy metal band from Finland. It enjoyed some success in Finland and Germany though even some fans wondered why they had taken the name of Roy Wood's famous band – the other z was actually added because the band didn't want to be confused with the German band Wizard. The band was founded by Teemu Kautonen as his solo-project in August 1995, and he handled all the instruments on the first demo, Teemu moved the band to Germany in April 1997 adding new local musicians CY and Daniel to the line-up. In August Teemu returned to Finland, but moved back to Germany in January 2001, and CY and Daniel came along again. Also a new guitarist Johnny joined the band.
Last known lineup:
Teemu Kautonen aka Hexenmeister - Vocals, originally also Bass & Guitars
CY aka Grobi - Drums
Daniel - Lead Guitars, Bass
Johnny - Rhythm Guitars

Angel De La Barthe
Wizzard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The neighbours had no idea where
They only knew what people talked
After sin and lust they said she walked
For years and years she could keep the secret
Before some nosy parishers found out
Why she had been shunning light For almost three years
Angel de la Barthe - she was a devil's whore
Angel - his offspring to this world she had borne
Angel de la Barthe - she was a Satan's tart
Angel - her perversions had been fed with blood
Into the woods she had wondered
Night after night lust she hungered
To taste the platin horn she could
Do what few women would
For two years the monster son
With a wolf's head and a devil's tail
Had been alive feasting
Upon the flesh of babies
Angel did you know where all this would lead?
From the moment of passion into the fire
If only he could come and save you now
But he's waiting for your soul to come down and feed
His desires
The lyrics to Wizzard's song Angel de la Barthe tells the story of a woman who was infamous in her neighborhood for her mysterious disappearance at dawn. The neighbors had no idea where she went, but rumors circulated that she had been engaging in sinful and lustful behavior. However, it is revealed that Angel de la Barthe had actually been on the run for three years after she gave birth to a monster son with a wolf's head and a devil's tail. She had been venturing into the woods at night to feed her perverse desires and satisfy her hunger for lust.
The song delves into themes of sin, lust, and the consequences of giving into temptation. Angel de la Barthe chose to engage in sinful behavior and ultimately gave birth to a monster that terrorized the neighborhood by feasting upon the flesh of babies. The lyrics suggest that the Devil had a hand in the situation, as Angel de la Barthe is referred to as his offspring and Satan's tart. The lyrics also suggest that Angel de la Barthe's actions led her down a path of no return, as she is waiting for her soul to "come down and feed his desires."
Overall, the lyrics to Wizzard's song Angel de la Barthe tell a dark and eerie story of a woman who gave into temptation and suffered the consequences.
