Formed in December 1992 in Silves, a historic city in Portugal's Algarve region, INHUMAN has been a cornerstone of the country's gothic metal scene for over three decades. From their 1996 debut "Strange Desire" to the seminal 1998 follow-up "Foreshadow", the band has consistently blended classic influences with a unique musical identity.

Their 2020 album, "CONTRA", produced by Daniel Cardoso (Anathema, Moonspell, Angelus Apatrida) and released on the label led by Moonspell's Fernando Ribeiro, marked a significant comeback. The album earned widespread acclaim, re-establishing the band's status and paving the way for their latest effort.

Inspired by the Latin phrase for "of glory," "GLORIÆ" is INHUMAN's most mature and daring album to date. Written during a challenging period for the band and once again produced by Daniel Cardoso, the new work delves deeply into themes of personal growth, overcoming obstacles, and self-discovery.

Lyrically, the album uses the concept of glory - and its absence - as a metaphor for personal struggles and triumphs. The band has also embraced a minimalist visual aesthetic, focusing on the interplay of presence and absence to invite listeners to interpret the subjective nature of glory.

As INHUMAN explains: "At this stage of our career, we feel the need to strip away unnecessary layers, both visually and conceptually. The focus is clear: the music must speak louder than any image. Our approach with ‘GLORIÆ’ is simple yet bold - let the music be at the heart of our existence."

"GLORIÆ" is not just an album; it is an artistic manifesto from a band that has stood the test of time, continues to push boundaries, and leaves an indelible mark on the Portuguese metal scene.
