Tunisian-French metallers Myrath are making their debut in Croatia as part of their European “Wilderness of Mirrors” tour! The audience will be able to enjoy the fusion of oriental melodies and modern metal on April 19, 2026 in Močvara. Early bird tickets for 29 euros will be available via the Hangtime website from Friday, October 24 at 10 am. The pre-sale price of tickets is 32 euros, while on the day they will cost 35 euros. Physical tickets are also available from October 24 at 10 am at the Dirty Old Shop (Tratinska 34).
Myrath were founded in 2001 in Tunisia and are today considered one of the most interesting names on the contemporary metal scene. Their music, described as “Blazing Desert Metal”, combines harsh metal production with an oriental atmosphere and orchestrations inspired by Arabic, Indian and European traditions. This fusion of cultures and styles has positioned the band at the very top of progressive metal. By the way, “myrath” means heritage, heritage in Arabic. The band members are guitarist and founder Malek Ben Arbia, charismatic vocalist Zaher Zorgati, bassist Anis Jouini, French drummer Morgan Berthet, and the story is rounded out by the band’s long-time collaborator, producer and keyboardist Kevin Codfert.
They attracted the audience and critics with the albums “Desert Call” (2010) and “Tales of the Sands” (2011), which launched them onto the world stage. The latter was created during the Arab Spring, which certainly left a strong mark on its final performance and significantly increased their fan base around the world. Since then, they have regularly performed at major festivals such as Hellfest, ProgPower USA and Wacken Open Air, and are also known for their extremely stage-setting, visually impressive production of their concerts.
Their latest release, “Karma”, released in 2024 via the earMUSIC label, brought a more mature and direct sound and very positive reactions from music critics. The album opened a new chapter for the band, which, after more than two decades of existence, continues to build a bridge between East and West through heavy metal.
A new, as yet untitled album is in preparation, which, according to the band members, should bring additional musical collaborations and new stylistic breakthroughs — among them the announced duet with Elize Ryd from the Swedish band Amaranthe.Myrath have performed all over the world during their career – from Europe and Asia to the Middle East and North America, and it is interesting that they also performed at the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar as part of the fan festival in Doha.
The day before, also organized by Hangtime, the band will perform at Belgrade’s Zappa Barca.
