NEWS | INNERWISH - FUZZ CLUB, ATHENS

“InnerWish” is regarded by many as the band's finest album to date, featuring some of its most beloved songs, including "Needles in My Mind", "Rain of a Thousand Years" and "Modern Babylon", among others. While some of the album's tracks have remained in the band's live setlists over the past 15 years, others will be performed live for the very first time.

For the first time, INNERWISH will share the stage with another outstanding Greek band, Thessaloniki's WARDRUM. Having been absent from the Athens live scene for several years, WARDRUM are heading south to present their unique brand of melodic power metal, the sound that has made them so beloved and distinctive.

INNERWISH was formed in Athens in 1995, driven by a love for heavy metal and a passion for expressing themselves through the creation of the music they love.

Their debut album, Waiting for the Dawn, was released in 1998 through NMC Music. Besides immediately attaining cult status within the Greek metal scene, it marked the beginning of the band's most successful years. Just one album was enough to attract the attention of one of the most important heavy metal labels of the time, Germany's Limb Music, through which INNERWISH released their next two albums, Silent Faces (2004) and Inner Strength (2006).

The band's steady rise, particularly within the traditional and power metal scene, led to performances both in Greece and abroad, as well as the release of its fourth album, No Turning Back, in 2010, this time through Sweden's Ulterium Records. The move to a new label not only maintained the band's upward momentum but gave it an even greater boost, culminating in the release of the self-titled InnerWish in 2016.

Just as everything seemed to be moving steadily forward, COVID-19 brought things to a temporary halt. Then, in 2024, now signed to one of today's leading metal record labels, RPM Music—whose roster includes bands such as HELLOWEEN, AMORPHIS, MESHUGGAH and many more—INNERWISH released their latest album to date, Ash of Eternal Flame. The album received an outstanding response from both critics and fans alike, proving that the band is stronger than ever and confident about its future. Although the band's musical style has gone through different phases and evolved over the years, certain qualities have remained unchanged: dedication, craftsmanship, quality, lyricism and passion.

On Saturday, 28 November 2026, join us at Fuzz Club as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of InnerWish together with INNERWISH and WARDRUM, and enjoy two of Greece's finest metal bands live on stage.
