Mithril is a fictional metal originating in J. R. R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series.

It is called 'true silver' by the Dwarves and is an incredibly durable and lightweight substance only found in the mines of Khazad-dûm.

In the grand tradition of stealing ideas from Tolkien, countless fantasy authors and game designers have introduced this material into their works.

Often misspelled as mythril, mithral, or mythral and probably mutated into mistral, etc...
Frodo survived a spear to the chest because he was wearing a mithril shirt under his outer clothes.

Heavy Mythril 

Any heavy metal that deals heavily with fantasy and, to a lesser extent, sci-fi as a thematic and lyrical device. Blind Guardian is perhaps the premier Heavy Mythril group, having an entire album devoted to the Silmarillion and other songs referencing everything from Peter Pan to Stephen King's Dark Tower series. Other such bands include Manowar, Rhapsody, Demons and Wizards, Hammerfall... in fact, a large percentage of powermetal bands fall under this category. Even Led Zeppelin touched on Heavy Mythril, name dropping Gollum and Mordor in their song "Ramble On". The video game Brutal Legend is an example of Heavy Mythril codified and used as a backdrop for a work. Lastly, the name is also used for a D&D campaign setting created by 4chan's /tg/, where the gods are replaced by metal bands.
Yeah, Helloween is awesome, but sometimes you just need to unwind with some good Swedish Heavy Mythril, know what I mean?
