Overview
Inner Wound Recordings (also written Inner Wound Records) is a record label dedicated to melodic metal, covering subgenres such as power metal, progressive metal, symphonic metal and folk metal. The label operates its own online storefront and Bandcamp page, through which it issues and distributes physical editions — notably limited-run vinyl — alongside its digital releases. The label's catalogue is built around European melodic and folk metal acts. Recent activity highlighted on its official site includes vinyl editions of the Swiss folk metal band Morgarten's debut album "Risen to Fight", issued in two limited colour variants (Iron & Blood Vinyl and Winter Sky Vinyl, each limited to 100 copies), and vinyl editions of the fifth album by the gothic metal project Walk in Darkness, "Gods Don't Take Calls", released in Translucent Turquoise and White vinyl, each limited to 150 copies. The label also promotes tours by its artists, listing dates across Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland and France. Inner Wound positions itself as a specialist rather than a broad-market major, focusing on the melodic metal niche and serving collectors through limited coloured-vinyl pressings. Its releases are sold directly via its website and Bandcamp store, and it maintains an active release and touring news feed for its roster.
History
Inner Wound Recordings is a record label specialized in melodic metal, covering subgenres such as power, progressive, symphonic and folk metal. The label issues music in physical and digital formats and operates its own online storefront and Bandcamp page, through which it sells limited-edition coloured vinyl directly to fans.
