Innerwish unveil new single & video ‘Higher’

Greek metal sextet Innerwish have just unveiled their new single ‘Higher‘ taken from their new studio album “Ash Of Eternal Flame,” which is due on November 8, 2024 through Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). ‘Higher‘ immediately raises expectations by its title alone, but also meets them with ease. Powerful riffing, soaring vocals, and touching lyrics consisting of a father’s love letters to his child make the song a must for each and every melodic metal fan.

This is one of our most favourite songs of the album and – to be honest here – the one we were afraid it wouldn’t end up in the album due to it being way different than the others! But Henrik Udd’s excellent mixing somehow dispelled our fears and we’re more than happy to share it with you! The lyrical story of this song is about a father talking to his first born child. In this case, it’s a son and in particular the one of our singer George, but you can project it onto any child you want obviously: the feelings of the father, his thoughts, his anxieties, his will to always be there for his child – even after leaving this world.

“Ash Of Eternal Flame” can be pre-ordered physically [ltd. CD-digipak or ltd. coloured vinyl], pre-saved on your favourite digital service provider (DSP), or pre-orderd digitally to receive ‘Higher‘ and ‘Sea Of Lies [feat. Hansi Kürsch]’ instantly, here: https://innerwish.rpm.link/aoefPR

The album “Ash Of Eternal Flame” features two distinct cover designs by Giannis Nakos of Remedy Art Design (known for his work with Amaranthe, Kamelot, Arion, and more). The blue version is used for both the CD and digital formats, while the red version is reserved for the vinyl edition. The album includes twelve tracks (including a bonus cover version for physical formats), recorded at LoNe and Devasoundz Studios in Athens, Greece under the guidance of producer Fotis Benardo. Mixing and mastering were handled by award-winning engineer Henrik Udd, who has worked with acts like HammerFall, Powerwolf, and Septicflesh.

With a diverse range of lyrical themes — spanning social and global issues, personal struggles, mythology, and even fantasy — Innerwish are poised to shine brighter than ever with “Ash Of Eternal Flame.” Musically, the album cements their legacy as a formidable force in the melodic metal scene.
