WARHAMMER is a black/death metal band from Athens, Greece.
They started as a thrash metal project in 2012 and in November of 2012 they released their first demo which was called “Warhammer”. In 2013, the band had a stable lineup, and in November of 2013 released its first full-length album entitled “Mass Burial”, which was released by “Senseless Life Records”.
Since 2014, Warhammer have toured 6 times, having set a mini Balkan tour in 2015, a European Tour in 2016, a Latin American Tour in 2019, among others, counting more than 50 shows and festival appearances abroad.

The same year, they organized Serbia metal meeting, a metal festival in Nis, Serbia, in which there were bands from Greece, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia, with positive critical acclaim in the Balkans.
In December 2019, the band re-released its first album “Mass Burial” as a self-financed release and started producing the 3rd album. The band had announced a tour in Asia and Oceania for September 2020, but due to the Covid-19 Pandemic it was postponed.
In November 2021 the 3rd album “Ashes and Cinders” was released via Drakkar Productions. It was the first album of the black/death metal era of the band. Also, during the same period, the band made a tour together with Batushka , Belphegor, and Diabolical in Scandinavia, North Europe, and the UK.
2022 found the band making a Balkan Tour alongside Batushka and Diabolical during April (Romania, Bulgaria, Greece), and shot a video clip in Sweden for the song “Fiamma”, directed by Claudio Marino of Artax Film (Watain, Tribulation, Ghost). In November 2022, the band successfully completed a Central/South America run of 17 shows, spanning in 7 countries. Out of these shows, six were co-headlined with Gaerea from Portugal. In the middle of December, Warhammer celebrated their 10-year anniversary with a special sold-out show in Athens.
Right now, the band is ready to release its 4th studio album, which is entitled “ALGOS”. The album was produced, recorded, mixed, and mastered at Hertz Studios in Poland (Behemoth, Vader, Decapitated). During this period, the band is also working on upcoming shows and tours.
